I’m pleased to announce that my photozine for Project365 is now available to purchase. The special collector’s edition photozine is limited to 365 copies, featuring all 365 images from Project365.
Completing Project365
The concept of Project365 was to capture an original photograph every day, for 365 days. Many people I spoke with over the year assumed that I was selecting images from my archive, but no, the whole creative challenge was to capture an original photograph every single day.
I knew at the outset that there would be times this would be a real challenge. I wondered how the short and often grey wet winter days in Britain would tax me. How could I capture an image if I was at my office during daylight hours? How could I deal with dull and lifeless conditions outdoors? What if I simply forgot?
I made some notes before the project got underway, which reading again now are revealing. I was concerned that the project might create additional psychological burden in an already busy life. Would I manage to complete the task every single day? What might prevent me from doing so (not just time but major life events)? Would I struggle for opportunity and inspiration? I wondered if my high expectations to create an artful and quality collection, not merely a Instagram-like motley gathering of images, might be beyond reach. How much would image quality vary? I expected there to be some standout images, but what about the gaps between these?
Initially, waiting to start the project had a strange effect of curtailing creativity, almost if I felt I should hold something back. Once I got going in March 2024, I really enjoyed the challenge, although I can’t deny it create an underlying ‘pressure’ (I won’t call it a stress). I began to notice more opportunities in the mundane and everyday, which I would previously have ignored. I think what surprised me most was not so much the capturing of the image, but how much I learnt in editing images (Adobe Lightroom), especially try to reproduce some of the creative ideas I had in my head at the time of photo capture. By the end of the year, if I ever left the house without a camera over my shoulder, it felt like I was walking naked.
Here’s a gallery with some of my personal favourite images taken throughout the year (click an image to view fullscreen).
I will keep all 365 images from Project365 available to view at gabrielhemery.com/project365.
