The Christmas decorations have come down, the country has become "Frozen Britain" and we're a week into 2010.

A little belatedly, I'd like to wish everyone a Happy New Year. I hope that it's a peaceful and prosperous one for all.

For me, there is much to look forward too. University has restarted and this will be my last year on the Foundation degree (although I am applying to do a third year to gain a BA Hons). This term will entail a final self initiated project, along with other assignments and the college will be at FreeRange this year as well. I also have my own small exhibition in the Summer.

Coming up soon, I intend to enter the AOP Student Awards and the Fujifilm Student Awards, amongst others. I'll be redesigning my website and giving further consideration to how my photography and studies will pan out into a hopefully successful career. In fact, I have so many ideas and things to do, I'm not sure when I'll fit it all in. But I'm looking forward to it.

Additionally, I've also started taking one photo each day for a year, inspired by the Project 365 group on Flickr. I'll only be using my iPhone to take these pictures and using iPhone apps to edit them. This is purely a personal project, which I had only being posting to my Flickr. However, I've decided to include them in my blog as well, having backdated previous Project 365 entries. To solely see them on my blog, just click on the Project 365 tag, or you can go to the Flickr set. I'll be using the tags on my blog a bit more so you can filter out what you want to see. I'll also post some more of those photos that I've taken that don't really have a home and I will be writing more about photography too.

All in all, it will be a busy year, but I intend for it to be a successful one too.
