The 365 days project is based around photography, encouraging people to join in and begin learning basic steps to using a camera and creating great photography. 
The aim is to take a photograph daily and support these photos with the tutorials and online information that has been posted upon YouTube and the 365 days project website. 
There are simple tricks and techniques that can be developed on your own with the camera you already have. A personal favourite of mine is the 'light writing'. The host on the online tutorials uses a pen light and draws letters within the air and the camera catches these at a slow speed. The result is a blurred figure moved with crisp bright writing in the foreground with luminous lettering. This small yet simple trick is one example of the huge amount of scope that can be used for capturing that perfect photo.
