A way to chronicle my progress...

[SilverMK3]

Photography is a pretty new hobby for me, but I'm really getting into it. I want to make sure my interest doesn't fizzle out in a few months, especially after spending a fair amount of $$ on gear, so I think I've come up with a way of challenging myself and keeping it interesting:

I've started a Dave Learns Photography blog to track my progress, get feedback, and mostly just push myself to take shots worth sharing. I'll probably post most of the same shots to the "A picture I took in 20xx" thread but it'd be awesome if you guys could take a look and drop a comment or two if you've got feedback for me.

I guess this is in the same vein as most of the critique threads, flikr groups, and photo contest sites... just a little more personal. If anyone else has their own photography sites, blogs, web albums, etc. post the link here and let's turn this into a "personal photography sites" thread.

Nice start, keep it up!

Thanks! I think it's working - I'm already seeing little improvements and I've only been doing it for a couple of weeks. The moon shots are a perfect example.

I hope you find that Kata bag more comfortable than I did.

I hope so too! What didn't you like about it?

I just hated the straps on the thing. They were not comfortable at all for me.
