Of the resolutions from last year this one was probably the biggest success, thanks in large part to this big dumb blog. Consistently taking pictures of the food I ate made it pretty impossible not to improve.
For a fun challenge I chose a photo I took on January 19, 2009, then recreated it (mostly) and photographed it again using my year's worth of knowledge. Now I'm certainly not saying it's perfect or that I'm a pro yet, but I definitely see improvement and for me, right now, that's good enough.
Also, that was kind of a gross sandwich and I'm a little embarrassed that I ate it so often. My tastes and cooking ability have developed with the photos it seems. No complaints here.
So the first post of this blog was my new year's resolutions for 2009. Over the next couple of posts I am going to take a look back at them and see how I did. For now, here's a list of my 2010 resolutions: - Take a roll of film a week.
- Have consistently good posture.
- Use the phrase "get real" more.
Here's my look back at 2009. It's a nice reminder for me that no matter how hard it gets, I'm still one lucky s.o.b. Thanks to all of you for making it special.
