I know its just another project
I know I have a bad habit of making new projects when trying to downsize old ones
I know that I will have not the time nor the effort to fully finish it the way i want
BUT
FOTOjournal is a idea that i’ve had for awhile and have been trying to figure out how to make it work since then. Though its in a crude form right now and I have quite abit of work to do on it to even get the archive done much less the new stuff- I’m giving it a try. Basic translation- a site divided into monthly folders of all of my small camera, phone pix, and other submitted photos from my life. Mainly raw and unedited- its a way to help me get caught up and just throw the stuff up that needs no editing really and is just mainly journal entries done in image form.
I want to be able to label everything, give proper credit to those invovled, gps, etc (a whole lot of extra work that my virgo ass feels i need to do and i really dont but will complain about not having enough time to do so anyway).
So check it out and see what you think, many of my close friends will be able to find hundreds of photos of themselves that they forgot about or never saw most likely do to me wanting to edit them first- (this was a LONG and HARD process of putting these photos up to the public and I fought it off for awhile but in the end decided that my professional work and my personal work are 2 different things and in order to focus on the seperately I have to divide them as such).
And of course to counteract that statement I have put my myspace as both a personal and professional site together due to time and not wanting to update hundreds of sites each week……dont ask me how my mind works- it puzzles Raquel daily
Other then that- I currently have up the months of Nov 07-July 08 and are working on August and the NYC trip thats oh about 600 photos alone…hopefully to come within the week
