    This month's photo topic is "New Years Resolution"
    Ok, this may be a a great or a horrible idea for a challenge, but it happens once a year so here we go. Take your new years resolution and find a way to photograph it. Some may need more creative approach than others.
    And if you want you can leave it to the group to guess the resolution even.

    Happy shooting!
    Again, the rules are simple:
    • Should be be using some canon gear , this is a canon forum after all.
    • Shot with the assignment in mind, go out and shoot something new don't dig up something from the archives.
    • and most importantly have fun.

    How do you know when some-one is breaking a new years resolution, I do not know of any-one who has made one. When you are younger and want to get somewhere in life, you might do it then but when you get older, you tend to have sorted things out in your life.

    I wasn't overthinking how simple these can be, maybe you want to get up earlier/sleep in less, and you photograph the alarm clock.
