Your Goals - Your Camera - Your Pace - Your Success
New In-Person Photography For Beginners 5 Week Course in Ilminster, South Somerset
Our 52 week project and 365 project starts again soon, but you can also join at anytime in the year. To join you just need to take and post one photo each week or day of the year.
This discipline will help you practice your photography, improve your mindfulness and boost your mood with potentially more time outdoors.
It's a lovely project to be a part of, especially with others joining in too. You will get a suggested theme for each week via the facebook group on a Monday morning. There is also this 365/52 week project module which lists the themes.
Paid members get a shooting guide for each week, and you can join the Savvy Shooters tier for just £9 per month click to sign up.
When posting your images use #52weekproject or #365project and mention the topic in your caption, feel free to tell us as much or as little about your image as you like. You can use the private communities here in your membership to post or the public facebook group.
