How's this for an idea...

[ChrisMClark]

I know a few people do the 365 projects, doing a picture everyday etc, so what about this: How about instead of just taking a picture everyday, take one related to some historic event. October 25 (that's tomorrow for anyone not quite awake still) events can be found here. Wish I'd thought of this earlier as today is the anniversary of the USA pledging to support South Vietnam, and I could have got some cracking pictures of some Vietnam era tanks (at the Bovington tank museum, which just happens to be a 2 minute walk away!). I'm going to try to do this every day, although it won't happen, my work will make sure of that!

So, starting tomorrow I'm going to try this.

My subject for tomorrow is:

Continuing the 'warry' theme, tomorrow marks the 72nd anniversary of the formation of the Rome-Berlin axis, the agreement that took Italky to War with Nazi Germany. Expect pictures of tanks as I can't go too far tomorrow.

Anyone else think this is a good idea?

I think its a good idea but I also think it'll be a tough job to meet a challenge like that.

Power to ya!

Best hope that museum has 365 tanks

Sounds like a cracking idea! Best of luck and look forward to seeing the results!

look forward to seeing the results!

You may be waiting a while I may stockpile a few for a while and upload them week by week, that way if I miss a day I'll have shcance to catch up! Then upload to flickr or something.
