Ian’s Top Tips

• Challenge yourself. Part of the fun of a 365 project is trying new techniques and experiencing different genres to boost your photography skills.

• Persevere. You don’t have to capture a grand sunset every single day. If you’re pushed for time, try photographing something in your home.

• Don’t be too hard on yourself.

You probably won’t capture your best work every single day, but that doesn’t matter. Enjoy the process!
