I'm only a week into this project, and I'm having difficulty. Though I can think of many things to photograph, my eye still isn't good enough that the photos are coming out how I want them. This means I need to a) practice and b) save up for that better camera.
In any case, this is the contents of a living room bookshelf in all its glory. The bug spray hasn't been used in a ridiculous number of years, and the Coke bottle in the distance is actually a true authentic old Coke bottle from when that was the only way to drink the tasty drink. The camera is an old, cheap camera that my family waited in the cold for on a hectic Black Friday in 2003 because it was just $88. I laughed at the horrible quality even then, but that laughter came back to haunt me when I had to borrow it to take photos at my first Tilly And The Wall concert the next year on a Friday the 13th in which my camera died. Nearly all of my photos feature the band with their head chopped off.
There's so much else on this shelf...a fish tank pump, a certificate from my museum internship, a photo of my sister and I from her graduation and even a second discarde camera, only slightly better than the one mentioned above.
