I have been forcing myself to carry a camera and take photos everyday, unfortunately not all of them make the cut to my 365 Project, and even fewer make it here for critic. Here are a few of the shots that have been taken as part of the project to date. Please let me know what you all think.

#2 is a nicely executed and framed pan... note to self - I really must practice this sometime...

#3 is my pick of the shots - I really like the simplicity of it - I probably would crop a smidge off the left (or at least clone out the person on the left)

I like the processing you have given the second and this shot would be my pic of these with the third up next.

Great panning technique Cameron!! I quite like the noise in that image as well. Gives it an interesting timeless feel although the bike+person seems qute modern.

Thanks Rodney, I didnt even notice the smidgen of person on the LHS of #3 until you pointed it out

Thanks Colin and Suren. I actually converted the image to B&W and then added a heap of grain to it to disguise the fact that I had neglected to focus (60mm Micro Nikkor in MF mode) prior to snapping this one. I liked it a lot and the processing disguises the lack of focus nicely

Nice!

I like #2 the most. Only thing is the white line underneath him but I know you only have few seconds to take the image. Good work with doing the 365 project, I do not have the time and motivation to do it.

Thanks Chris...it has been both difficult and frustrating at times, but I am yet to miss a day...and I have not used any preshot fillers so far.

#2 is the pick I think. #1 is a little busy.

As for processing disguises, yep, I think you're correct. PS actions can salvage a lot of otherwise unusable images.
