Screw that.  My New Year's Resolution and goal for PAW is to simply TAKE 52
pictures and get them developed and scanned once a week.  To hell with
having to make them brilliant photographs.  I'm going to be lucky to find
the time and motivation at the end of 10-15h working days to simply pick up
a camera and point it at anything.  If I get through this with 52
photographs to show for it in a year's time, I'm going to be very happy.
Hopefully, I'll learn something about why I take pictures in the process.
