Final 3 in my 30 for 30 series.

I did it. Finished a photography project. Much satisfaction.

It’s been an interesting month, I feel as though a lot of ideas and thoughts have become clearer for me. I’m not about to go into an in depth analysis right now though. I’ll leave it and let some distance grow between it and me. Clearer picture like.

If I was consistent I’d be magic. Maybe. Or, 6 more portraits.

I said I’d post in threes.

I didn’t.

Here’s 6 more.

7I like how my nail varnish matched my Doc stitches 8 Or, get this camera out of my face. I’m sick of it.9If I don’t ask, I don’t get answers. So often, the answer is exactly what I wanted to hear. 10 what I am is a designer, a logical thinker, worthwhile… (feeling inadequate at the market)11 A bit of sickness after a busy weekend.12See you in three days for the next installment – I’m hunting for some consistency…

See the rest of the portraits here.
Words from my morning pages.

// New project

I’m part of an experiment. No, not a medical one, a social one. It’s called The 9 Experiment. I got in about a week ago. There are exactly 9 challenges to complete within a year and the sole aim of the experiment is do good things, big things.1_30

I’ll talk about all of them as I go along, but this is #6 complete a personal project. My project is taking a self portrait a day for a month. This month in particular. According to this page, my Saturn return is happening this month. Although I’ve sort of felt it over the last few months I think things are starting to ramp up significantly this month and I wanted to document it somehow. So I’ve turned to my trusty camera and here we go.2/30

The text on each photo is taken from my morning pages of that day, which I’ve happily restarted again. I can feel the difference again already, my mind feels freer somehow.
3/30I figure, there are 30 days in November and 3 is a great number so I’ll post them in threes. Just 9 more to go after today. I’ve never finished a photo project before, let this be the first!
