There is a lot going on with my life right now, this is the reason why I haven't published articles on a regular basis lately. It is a shame, I am sorry about it. I have many stress sources right now and I did not want the blog to be one more.
When you are stressed, my advice is to visit Olivier Robert's website. Olivier takes peaceful photographs, ones that help you relax. Olivier takes mostly black and white pictures in the Genova area. If like me you enjoy his work, you can buy prints of his photographs.
Olivier publishes photographs on a daily basis, although it is not written on his website he does a 365 project. When I told him about 365 projects, he answered he was actually hoping to go for a 730 or even a 1095 project. I wish him good luck!
And by the way, don't forget the contest ends in 4 days!!

365: Abdul Ludbah
People believe 365 projects are often self-centered. From my experience projects composed mainly of self-portraits are not always quality ones, and I have featured very few of them.
Abdul appears on every photo of his second 365 project, but he did not want to take a picture of his face every day. The result is quite interesting, I particularly like pictures of his hands.

365: marco|g
Today is thursday, and thursday is 365! Last week Ervic Aquino's 365 worked pretty well and I heard his family was jazzed about it.
marco|g has already completed 80% of his 365 project. What I enjoy most about his photos is that marco, like others, uses his own colour filter which gives an identity to his photos, making them recognizable as his.

365: Ervic Aquino
After deciding to write an article about Ervic Aquino's 365, I thought I did not have enough information about him and his project on his flickr account; so I asked him to tell me what he could/wanted to say about this project. And Ervic sent me this huge e-mail! Before even reading it I could see he his passionate about photography and this project in particular.
Ervic Aquino has started this project because he was wishing to get out of a rut, he wanted to make experiments and try new things, which he could not do during his paid shoots.
I can say with no doubt he is a perfectionist, as he admits he puts a lot of pressure on himself, always expecting the next photo to be better, keeping trying a technique until he fully masters it.
This project is mainly a family project, most photos include Ervic's children. They are active contributors to the quality of this 365, always making nice faces! It is great to have the support of your relatives, it is even better to have them involved in your projects.

![Day Two Hundred Thirteen: Public Craziness [Explored] 213/365 Jan, 14, 2010 After picking up the kids from school we headed out to the marina for some quick shots. It was finally a warm day and the sun was shining so I really wanted to do some outside shooting. There were a lot of shady characters walking around and Elizabeth was definitely on the lookout. Brandon and Sofia dont really care and have a tendency to act anyway they want to regardless of whos watching. <b>Strobist</b> Dynalite Uni400jr. with beauty dish camera left](http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5089/5356149534_22ace1c43f.jpg)

Let's start right away!
Back to the future
I had already seen projects of before/after photos of people. Irina Werning's "Back to the future" project goes further, as the photographer did everything possible to make the after picture look like the before shot: background, accessories, clothes and even facial expressions. No doubt Irina Werning is a perfectionist!
Light-Paint Piano Player
I am not used to publish videos here. This one is very impressive and light painting fans will undoubtely appreciate. I found it first on photographyblogger.net. Man Ryan Cashman rocks!Light-Paint Piano Player from Ryan Cashman on Vimeo.
22 Remarkable Pictures of Rust
Another article from photographyblogger.net, a neat compilation of pictures of Rust by Tim Kok. I love it.
Photos opportunities
Corinne Vionnet has done a tremendous work on her Photos opportunities project. For 26 famous landmarks she has collected and merged thousands of photos into one picture. Results look like paintings.
Lezardphotographique
The article Accessory Guide: Memory Card has been very popular this week, partly thanks to the site photo geek.I would like to thank every person who shared my articles this week :)

365: Elkana Randrianaivo
I often write about the difficulties of running a 365 project and completing it. Well some photographers want to take the challenge to the next level.
Elkana Randrianaivo is one of them. He does not want to take any picture, he wants to push his boundaries and come up with a new idea every day. So basically he tries and build a photograph from an idea he has on mind, setting a scene and appropriate lighting. I feel this is a real artistic approach. Elkana told me he keeps learning from this project, I believe no matter your level as a photographer a 365 project is a good way to keep evolving.

365: Photon Thief
It is pure chance if today is the fourth time in a month that I write about iPhone photography. Interesting 365 projects are a rare breed and I certainly don't want to miss one for such a futile reason.
Photon Thief seemed very surprised I was wishing to write about his project. I like this project because there is a real effort to not shoot the same photo twice. It is easier to find your way and stick with it, his way of leading this project is more challenging.

365: Andrius Aleksandravičius
Many people on the internet are all about their cats, and share countless pictures of them. Andrius Aleksandravičius has decided to make a whole 365 about cats. They really are cute, most people love them for that, but not everyone (like Boulet)!
Cats are a mystery, you never know what they have on mind. There's one thing for sure: they are photogenic!
