And we’re off!

Well SoFoBoMo’s fuzzy month has officially begun, and we can all now officially start snapping. It seems that some people who were originally going to wait a while before starting are now getting going from day one, in an attempt to get two books done in the two month long “fuzzy month”. I was originally planning on starting on April 1st, but now deadlines at work are forcing me to delay that by about a week.

I have a preliminary title for the book, “A Durban less seen”. The idea being to try and find beautiful wild areas in and around my home town that you don’t normally see photographed. Our beaches and other touristy destinations are photographed and advertised to death, but some of the smaller reserves & parks are worthy of a lot more attention than they get.

For those that want a central place to keep track of all the SoFoBoMo related blogs, check out Gordon McGregor’s Yahoo pipe capturing all known SoFoBoMo blogging.

So far a lot of participants appear to be posting their photos as they take them, which definitely supplies enjoyable viewing for the rest of us. I think that I will however hold back on posting my photos until near the end when I narrow down my selection to the 35 (or possibly closer to 40) that I will use.

I need to get back to work now, got to get these deadlines done ASAP so I can start photographing.

Good luck to everyone.
