If my calculations are correct, I have only 16 days and 16 images leftin my photo a day project. However, that doesn't necessarily mean they will all be of great value - see today's average image. With multiple projects today, I figured I'd just do something simple that would not divide my time too much. Creative fatigue is certainly a factor too. Add to that, the ratio of good to bad ideas seems to be getting exponentially smaller as time continues to move toward infinity. However, looking back at the project, the volume of good photographs is greater than the bad ones. So I guess I should count my blessings there. Day 349 of my 365 photo a day project.

I'm adding a five string banjo to the list of instruments I've shot for this project. This one hangs on the wall at the Urban Ecology Center just down the road from our house where they have quite a collection of stringed instruments. Hanging next to it is also a guitar, a mandolin, and ukulele all hanging ready to be played. While I've never actually seen this played, it certainly looks....well used. And it was the texture of the wear and tear on head behind the strings that caught my eye first. Then I noticed the complimentary colors from the various light sources. To ensure maximum dynamic range, I shot 5 bracketed exposures and created a 32-bit file. In processing, I enhanced both the color and textures of the banjo and rotated the image 90 degrees clockwise from the way it was shot. Day 348 of my 365 photo a day project.
