Photo a day for 2011

This year, I have decided to challenge myself to make at least one photo each and every day during 2011.

The reason for this is to push myself to try new ideas and different techniques throughout the year and share them with you.

Hopefully, during the course of the year I will have learnt a great deal and improved along the way.

Here is one from Jan 1st - well, to be honest, shortly after midnight with family members swirling sparklers.

This was taken with the camera on tripod and a shutter speed of 15 seconds. ISO 200 lens at 18mm and f3.5.
