In 2010 my goals are:

To become known as the "King of the Night" at sprint car tracks.

And to kick everyones behind at Snowcross shooting.

And since neither of those has got me anyplace moneywise, and I have been passed over as track or series tog, I guess I must resolve to get a real job.

So looks like my goal is to sell all my gear and pay off any remaining debts and learn to say:

"Want fries with that?"

Another 7 is planned. Nothing beyond that though. Lenses though...

Get a new body.
Take photographs of progress doing that.

I got about a six pound head start in December but didn't think to take photos at the very start.

I agree. I don't use resolutions myself (just don't mention that in the OTHER post about resolutions).
So you hope to become proficient in shooting things that don't involve an engine and two wheels. How's about something like this? :lol:

My goals for this year:

2. Publish at least 1 photo per week outside of the 365 project
3. Build a better online gallery for my portfolio
4. Buy a new body (Nikon if anyone has any suggestions)
5. Add a fisheye or other small focal length lens to my pack
oh and 6. I want to get a light meter methinks.

Budget = Whatever it takes to get the body required.
I'd like full frame but am not overly hyped about it. Just like I'm not too worried about getting the high iso.
