Calling All New Years Project Websites

Posted on 24 December 2009 by D. Travis North

Many of us have been talking of doing photo projects for the new year. For example, I will be doing a Photo 365 Project called No Words.

So if you are doing a Photo 365 project, or something similar, reply to to this post and tell us where we can find it. Feel free to mention your blogs and websites as well.
