Month 7 in Review - July

This month has felt a little odd with photography.  I seem to be either very happy with some daily photos, or don't like them at all.  The latter is a case of not really bothering to get a daily shot, while the former might be attributed to finally learning a bit more about landscapes.  I'm still lacking (very much) the patience of using the tripod much, so it's still snapshots for the most part.  For August I will therefore challenge myself to more tripod photos, as well as learning how to use the polarizer effectively.

Some stats for July:

• Favourite photo: Day 184 Bonus Photo - Lake Lillian - perhaps my best calm water photo to date
• Least favourite photo: Day 203 - Going Backpacking - really not a good photo, apart from wanting to document the contents of the pack
• Most challenging photo to take: Day 186 - Leaf - Lighting and macro combined - enough said
• Most creative photo: Day 199 - The Summit Coke Bottle
• Most used Photoshop edits: sponge (saturate), unsharp mask, dodge 
• Number of photos taken this month: ~1,270
• Number of days on which I wouldn't have taken a photo if I didn't have to for this: 20/31
• How I feel about this project: Gotta push myself to keep going, but not giving up now

Which is your favourite photo from July?
