July 365 +1 Idea List
Posted by Katrina Kennedy on Jun 29, 2012 in 365, Blog, Idea List | 6 commentsAre you looking for inspiration and ideas to keep your 365 project fresh and fun?
Yep, me too.
The CY365 Monthly Inspiration lists are meant to kickstart your creativity when you feel like it just isn’t happening for you.
We often get stuck when stop looking around in a creative way. It gets easy to think that everything in your life is ordinary and already photographed.
Taking a long look at the list can make you begin to hunt for details in your life you might not have seen. Creativity takes practice. The inspiration list is a great way to guide that practice.
Do you like using the 365 lists? Share this tweetable.
How can you use the list? Follow three quick steps!
Step One: Get The List
Download the list to your smartphone or print it if you’re phone isn’t so smart
. I keep a printed one where I can see it for quick reference.
Step Two: Pick A Prompt
Go sequential if that’s your thing or pick one that inspires you. The list is meant to stretch your creative muscles! Create your image with whatever camera you have!
Step Three: Share Your Photo
Sharing is caring, right?! Upload your photos to the CY365 Gallery for a little gallery love or tag them on Instagram with #CY365. Group support makes accomplishing a 365 Project much easier!
And Then…
Join me for EXPOSURE – an online class designed for those with some understanding of manual mode who are ready to REALLY use it!
Now let me know what you think of this month’s idea list by leaving a comment below.






I love the monthly lists Katrina! I also realized that I really need to get reaquainted with my DSLR because I’ve gotten into the habit of using my phone to take pictures. I signed up for the exposure class and I *think* I need to restart 365 with my DSLR to get reaquainted with it before class!
I get into that same spot Karen. It becomes so much easier with my phone, but there is nothing like the beauty of seeing through the lens of my DSLR.
Looking forward to having you in class!
I love the lists, too, but especially appreciate the daily emails. June was one of the hardest months for me for some reason, so the prompts really helped!
Karen, I’m so glad the daily emails helped. Sometimes we just need that little extra push! Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
I have just discovered your site through Pinterest & am SO inspired! I have just created a new blog motivating me to “get up and go” already on things I want to do & try, rather than continuing to wait. I have wanted to do a picture a day challenge for awhile but am always finding excuses: only have a camera phone, busyness, etc. Which is lame since I am constantly snapping shots & finding “pictures” all around me. What do you think of beginning a project like this mid-year? Do you think it’s a good idea or do you recommend waiting until the new year?
Welcome Heather!
I think anytime you are inspired is a great time to jump in. Sounds like this is the moment for you! So glad you’ve found us. I am excited to see what you create!
