    It's hard to figure out what to take a photo of. I have grand ideas but they don't come out or I don't stop and actually take the time to take photos.
    My goal this month is to take at least one photo a day. It has been a challenge to think about what represents my daily life with variety.

    My biggest photo struggle is taking good pictures to start with especially in poor light.

    My biggest photo struggle is just getting out the camera when it's not a special occasion. I would really like to scrap more photos of our daily lives. You are a major inspiration!! HeatherOz

    Hi Ali-- My biggest photo problem is just the fact of committing them to albums...whether or not they're in layouts or just a photo as is. I have boxes of photos, in chronological order, mind you but can't seem to make a single decision about putting them in albums.

    I struggle with when it's ok to finally let a picture go - into the garbage. Some aren't worth keeping around, but it's hard to throw them away.

    My biggest photo struggle is lighting. I position my subject near a window for natural light, think I have it perfect and ta-da..shadows. Every time.

    My biggest photo struggle is not knowing what to do with so many pictures. I order hundreds of prints because I have such a hard time selecting only a few, and now I have drawers full of pictures -- I don't know where to start. I need some 'Photo Freedom'!

    My biggest photo struggle is finding and taking the time to learn and then practice with my camera. I want better pictures, I just don't have the time to invest in making that happen.

    Deciding how to organize my photos, especially the older ones, seems to be my biggest problem with photos. Sometimes one photo can fall into a bunch of different categories and I get a headache trying to figure out which one I really want it to go in!

    Wow! Talk about a lot of comments! My biggest struggle right now - is BW conversions and finding the time to back up my hard drive.

    My BIGGEST photo CHALLENGE is, when it is time to do a layout, my photos are not the right color or the right size.

    I would have to say that now that I am using 100% digital I find the organization a bit difficult. Like do I print them and then store them, just organize them on the computer, what???
    I love your blo ALi, it is the ONE that Icome to on a regular basis!
    Blessings!

    My biggest struggle is knowing what to do with the 7 years of photos belonging to my ex marriage........it's my history but it is too painful sometimes to even think about. Should I scrap them or just keep them in a box.....I can't just throw them away........that's my struggle.

    I loved 'Big Picture Scrapbooking'... I'm still working my way through it, in fact. I've hit a bit of a scrapping lull and Stacey's easy, friendly, enthusiastic approach is just so appealing. Between the two of you, I'll get there again!

    deciding on the size of my pictures before I print them, as I print at home I have the freedom to print them whatever size I want and sometimes this is as much a curse as it is a blessing

    My struggle is with my digital SLR. I tend to take so many on auto, and end up with SO many photos which are not particularly good. It also makes it hard and time consuming to choose which to keep or get rid of. I am afraid that I haven't reached the stage of organizing photos yet...

    My biggest challenge is finding the perfect photo to go with the story that I want to tell. I love my digital camera but I am overwhelmed by the number of pictures I take. I am a pack rat and I find it hard to delete any photo (even the really bad ones). Sometimes it takes so long to find a photo that I just give up. Unfortunately the story that I wanted to tell goes untold. Hopefully Stacy can help me get organized.

    My biggest photo struggle: I forgot to make a copy of my harddrive. One day I had a horrible hard drive crash and my pictures were lost. It was a mechanic damage so it wasn´t possible to recover my pictures and everything else on the harddrive :(
    Have a great day!

    My biggest photo struggle is that I have too much digital photos and non digital photos and there is no system. I don't find them if I search them.
