Wow.<br /><br />I suppose it's fitting that the greatest skill I learned applied to <a href="http://bighugelabs.com/onblack.php?id=4176320520&posted=1&size=large">today's photo</a>. It's difficult to be creative when you're not in the mood. Tonight, I was exhausted, and wanted to crawl into bed at 8pm (it's been a really long week). I forced myself to drive downtown to Los Angeles and find some interesting place to photograph at 9pm. I just wasn't feeling it. I think the real measure of an artist is the ability to create at any time. And I think, after 1095 photos every day, that I'm a bit better at it.<br /><br />Thanks to everyone who commented, viewed, posed, and supported me through taking 1095 photos. Every photo from year 3 can be seen on the <a href="http://flickr.com/photos/billselak/sets/72157611378630028/map">map</a>.

I've discovered a few things.<br /><br />Photo Tip #7:<br />My 50mm f1.4 lens is difficult to use with extension tubes. My 18-200 lens is much easier to focus with with extension tubes. I think it's because the aperture is lower (higher?). The 18-200 lens is a f5.6, so it's way easier to focus. Remember with extension tubes, you can focus much closer. I was about three inches away from this shoe.
