101 Things to Photograph Before I Die

A while back I worked out a list of places that I will visit before I finish traveling this life. It was meant to stop at 100 but blew out to about 600 - there are just so many fabulous sights on this earth of ours.

Yesterday I came across a list of 12 things to capture posted on photopreneur But while some of them were inspirational, I decided to create my own personal list of must-shoots and I challenge you to do the same.

I know some of them are cliched and cheesy, some are just general thoughts others are specific places. But while I've managed to cross some of the list, I want to try again to improve and skills and knowledge from the last time. I will probably keep adding to this as time goes on. If you want to share this list, that's great, if you want to add your own let me know I might not have thought of those ones yet. The plan is to one day publish a book using this list as a starting point of my 101 favourite images.
