52plus1 Picture project 2018

Every New Year eve we "all" end up thinking

"What projects should i start next year?"

"I must set up some tasks and projects for next year"

and so it goes on and on and on and on and on and on....

Yep - I do it too "Dam it!" :-)

What to do then?

Should I expand my gym hours from 0 to inflatable "Arnold" characters like these!?

Maybe the "Couple Yoga" could be interesting :-)

No-Way should I choose health - No Way :-)

Newer the less and no matter what we choose it could start something exiting, something new....

As long as it ends up in something positive.

I shoot pictures -SURPRICE! - so it had to be something non fat burning!

365 project?

No Way that I will start up such a project - no offence for the ones that has made it - you are so awesome even having made it half way and so impressed of the ones who made it to the finish line! Respect - brain dead project but impressive!

on their blog or web pages - those 2 photographers inspired me to my 2018 Project.

Now here it comes!

THE 52PLUS1 2018 PICTURE AND VIDEO PROJECT

Whatever will be - will be

As mentioned earlier - who cares where it ends up - as long as it ends up with something and has been inspiring me and, or moved my photography in a new and exciting direction.

That is why the project has a sub tittle - Whatever will be - will be

The project is 52 still pictures in one year

One picture every week

Color and Black & White pictures

Random pictures as a diary of the year ( it could be a theme, portraits, landscape)

Even though that it only will end up in one picture every week I will probably take more then that, but there will not be this stress moment like in the 365 project and end up as a nightmare instead.

Then the mysterious "PLUS1"

One video of the year - No subject yet!

it could be a sum up movie of the year - it could be the emotion of the year - it could be the theme that the 52 pictures is describing - it could be a movie of one of the pictures....

As long as it end up with something - hopefully nice and exciting maybe even beautiful

(YEAP i am dreaming about the golden Globe or Oscar)

And finally it will end up as a book - My book - you might be able to order a copy of the book if you are so crazy that you like it and want to throw money after it! After all it is your money :-)
