So as I’m sure anyone who reads this knows that I’m just over half way in an ambitious ThreeSixFive photo project. Well today marks the start of a project within that project. It’s called Project50, the gist being that it’s 50 photos over 50 days with a 50mm lens. The name makes sense now right. The wicked awesome thing about this project is that I’m starting it today with three good friends, Phil, Jamie, & Ashley. Today we started on a joint theme “ A Few Of My Favourite Things”. Even with a set them we all came up with completely different photos, check them the fuck out:
Phil
Jamie

Me On Flickr
On a side note, it’s been a very good couple of days for me on flickr, I’ve I have had over 2,000 views, 40+ comments 12 faves & 14 new people have added me as a contact. I think most of that is down to a shoot I did with Leah & Kirsty on Saturday. I think the shots came out pretty well considering the limited space I had to get the lights in. Below is one of the photos from the shoot.

James Arnold.
Think this may be my fave dude.
Ashley Baxter
Yeah, mine too. Even though sequins are ‘a bastard to light’ :p I just love, love, love her hair, and the green background compliments it nicely.

I like these photos not only cos i like repeating old style wallpaper but because of the look in her eyes… it’s as if she’s trying to burn a hole through the camera… well to me anyway.
travispedroza
Love all these shots. Background, styling, lighting all of it. This is my favorite I think because of the pose/composition. So sweet.
Rick Nunn
We are so cool. Love the shot, the DOF is ridiculously amazing!

For some reason I think it’s a person in the background… You maybe? Someone else lurking? I’m sure I’m completely wrong though haha!
Awesome shot otherwise! Really love the DoF in this shot.
Ashley Baxter
Thanks Kyle :) It’s a person… of sorts. Not me though.

Great pic Mr Rick :) Thanks for sharing your favourite things with us
Rick Nunn
I know what it is, I know what it is!
sdmix
If I remember correctly, you own a Nintendo 64.
Why is this also not poking in the picture? Otherwise it would be epic!
Sweet idea for a project though dude! Am looking forward to seeing your shots. It is an epic lens to be using after all.
Ashley Baxter
Haha, Kneath got it in one.
kneath84
Sweetness! What do I get for a prize?
Ashley Baxter
Umm… You get to, well, feel like a true Star Wars fan.
Ashley Baxter
I’ve decided I want to live in this bag.

Ashley Baxter
I’d imagine you to be a hyper boy.
Rick Nunn

RockersDelight you would think so, but he is nearly always half asleep, and when he isn’t half asleep he is fully asleep.

im not gonna dare doing one of these. would be a joke. nixon watches are sooo nice.
Fuzzy Orange
FIRST
it’s cool seeing how different 4 photos with the same theme can be! We definatly need to do it again
Rick Nunn
Thanks Kyle, my wallet doesn’t… :P
sdmix Yeah, I couldnt really get it into the picture naturally… it’s not like I carry my N64 round with me in my bag.
RockersDelight I think we could fit you in there, the macbook pocket is fur lined so I think you would be pretty cosy.
Jamie Yeah totally! She is a girl, and she just said it! That’s a fucking fact!
▵ Will, you talking about the project or the photo theme? Whatever, fucking do both! You have a fixed 50, and there is 15 mins left of the day. Do it now! NOW! NOW!
Fuzzy_Orange
I wonder what a mix of all 3 would taste like?
▵
the photo theme. ill post my version of this up tomorrow. i might start a 50/50 project tho. ill jus go a day behind you all. altho i seem to have become ridiculously busy with no actual work to do. im learning to tattoo, ho ho ho!
Rick Nunn
Get on it dude, fiftyfifty is good! You should have all the time in the world with your summer break being on. Fuck tattooing, I’d be insanely scared of going wrong on someone!
▵
yeah its gonna be years till i do it on someone but itd be a nice skill to have. yeah youve talked me into this fiftyfifty ill start tomorrow. im liking this same theme idea. got so many projects on the go tho. trying to make money, as i have none. jus realised everyone else is getting this. apologies.
JamieThompson
Rick: You know I hate cheese
Fuzzy: Funny you should ask that…
rockersdelight: I’m really really not
Jamie Thompson
SECOND!
Rick Nunn
I like the way you answered in a random order, it made following the conversation nice and easy :P
And if you hate cheese you won’t mind me eating it ALL! MWHHAHAHAHA!!
Ash Dowie
you have a type R? shoot it man!
Rick Nunn
It’s off the road at the moment Ash, maybe when it comes back out to play. :)

Aren’t you afraid the Bose On Ear headphones break putting them in your bag without the protective pouch?
I usually put my Bose QC2′s or QC3′s in its case before putting it in my bag.
Rick Nunn
I do actually put them in the pouch before I put them back in my back, it’s just out of shot on this photo. :)
Max Lewe
is it an "normal" 50 mm 1.8 attached to the ae 1?
Rick Nunn
Yeah, it’s the normal Canon 50mm.
