Photo a Day Gallery

I’ve been fiddling around with the best way to display my photos from the 365, Photo a Day project. I knew I didn’t want to blog every. single. day. and I’m not really feeling Flickr, so I found a way to showcase the photos through a gallery right here on my blog.

So bookmark THIS page if you want want a daily dose of photography from your’s truly.

Sandi Shipley - Love so many of these! Especially the food photography and the flowers. Beautiful lighting!

Living the Visual Life

Yesterday, while browsing the internet for some inspiration, I came across Jamie Livingston’s Polaroid a Day website. Every single day for 18 years, Jamie took a Polaroid chronicling his life. One Polaroid, every day, until he died of cancer in 1997. Friends, family, life, love, death, quirky, extraordinary, mundane and ordinary, it’s all there. It’s a treasure trove of this man’s life. I found it be incredibly beautiful in its simplicity and extraordinary in the sheer scope of the project.

So here I am, on an otherwise uneventful Thursday afternoon, and I want to start my own photo journey. One photo, every single day, for the next 365 days. The photos I end up taking might sometimes be something really special, but more often than not, I think it’ll be something completely ordinary. But it’ll always be something.

So here we go, April 30th, 2009: I need a haircut.

Sonia - I can’t imagine having hair that long! It bugs me when it gets up to my shoulders, so I wonder how anyone can stand it. Good luck with the new project!
