1. I believe that being grateful builds creativity. At first I was skeptical, but then I realized that in order to find something you are thankful for every day, you have to look at life in a new perspective. Taking pictures in the same manner and same angle repeatedly gets to be monotonous and boring. This project pushes you to think differently and hone into your creativity to make each picture unique. For me, I had to figure out how to make each picture visually appealing instead of just snapping a picture and uploading it. In order for me to capture the subject that I was grateful for, I had to keep trying different angles, until I got it to where I the mood and atmosphere fit in with it.
2. The most difficult part of this project was finding a subject to take a picture of everyday. Sometimes I would find myself forgetting or just desperately looking around for something to take a picture of. The most valuable part of this project, however, was being able to focus on the positive things in life. I might recommend this project to other students. While it is fun, it's also a bit limited in what you can take pictures of and it's easy to forget to take pictures.
3. If I could design a similar project, I'd create one where you take pictures of things that interest or represent you. You'd be able to express yourself through your photography with you as the theme. People around you would be able to get to know you better and you'd have a chance to appreciate your hobbies and interests.
