Posted by JV (India, India) on 1 May 2007 in Miscellaneous.
I have completed my first month at aminus3.
I recall that I first visited aminus3 through the blog of Prashanth M and at that I time had purchased my camera phone and was wondering if I could start my own photoblog with cameraphone.
Before the digital camera I had old Cosina C1s, with which I fooled around for some years and photos were shot without much technical knowledge and understanding (same thing still happens:). I am unable to trace most of photos and negatives.
After having the digital cameraphone , it became easier and cheaper to shoot many photos, and with the law of average I get one good shot after many shots . I like to post photos as I see and I do little bit of basic touching or cropping with Google Picasa 2.
The limit of posting of one photo daily helped me to become consistent as postings required disciplined approach. At flickr I could post any amount of photographs so I was very casual about it and posted when I feel like postings.
Further regular posting of images provided me a chance for introspection. I have found out that I enjoy bright colors, balanced composition and have ability to look at the subjects with positive and brighter approach with details.
I have always labeled myself as inconsistent, as I have always been told that I am so (particularly reading about my zodiac sign, gemini). But now I feel I can be more regular with consistent flow of creativity.
I found the members of aminus3 very generous and resourceful and appreciated my works where I believed I dont deserve any , I know they are being kind with me. I thank all of you who have visited my blog and commented with their kind, appreciating, encouraging words. I also thank aminus3 for providing wonderful service and great platform.
Thanks again!!!

Congratulatiuons on having completed a milestone in AM3! :)
I've just started only about 1 week plus... so I hope i can at least also reach your milestone!
I can appreciate your reflections on your journey. But I have to add that using only a digital cameraphone to capture what you did is ismply amazing and requires great skill! So keep those great shots coming and aim to be listed in the 42+ list and ten the 500+ list!
I like the mosaic summary of your shots! Nice!

@Kairospix: Thanks for your kinds, I am overwhelmed.
When I started I was worried that if I can continue the daily posting.
Definately I aim higher, with more intersting and colorful photos.
Thanks again!!
Wow cool stuff, every shot there is really fantastic. For a moment i thought you put a link to the community page. ;-)
