Welcome to the One/Day Project
Here you will find hundreds of photos that I've taken every day since 2/29/2008. I reached my initial goal of making it to leap day 2012 (after 1462 photos), but I'm still going - the new goal is to make it to Monday, 2/29/2016.
Every photo in these galleries is a unique creation from that day. My intent is to create art, and I've taken great care to create most of these photographs. In addition to not uploading simple snapshots, I try incredibly hard not to repeat myself.
Please enjoy, and feel free to comment. Like the shot? Give it a thumbs up. Really like it? Buy a print or digital download.
Thanks for looking!
Photographs from Thursday, 3/1, 2012 through Thursday, 2/28, 2013.
![__01/23/13__ Sea Knight Interior
This photo shows the inside of a CH-46 Sea Knight helicopter, which is on the flight deck of the USS Midway. This floating museum has gotten some rave reviews and I had high hopes - it did not disappoint. I spent the entire day there, learned a ton, had a great time. And I still managed to miss some things.
I really like this photo with the way the red seats stand out against all the gray metal. It's also fun because I'm pretty sure one of my cousins flew these aircraft, but I can't remember for sure. Will have to check on that...

![__01/22/13__ Botanical Building
Today was my first solo day in San Diego, and I spent it in Balboa Park. I spent about 9 hours there and I'm exhausted, but I had such a great time! I visited the Japanese garden, the cactus garden, the natural history museum, the botanical building, and the museum of photographic arts. Surprisingly, the MOPA was by far my least favorite. The best was the Japanese garden, thanks to a personalized tour from docent-extraordinaire Harold. I also walked around the grounds and took many, many photos, including some pretty cool night shots. Stay tuned for those.
This shot is from inside the botanical building, a massive lath structure built nearly 100 years ago. It houses over 2100 plants, including some carnivorous ones!

![__01/21/13__ Star of India Mast
The Maritime Museum is just across the street from our hotel and features the Star of India, the sailing ship you see here that will be celebrating its 150th birthday this year.
We took a much newer boat out to the open ocean in the hopes of seeing some whales, and wow did we see some whales! There was a herd of about 12 gray whales, which was more than any of the crew had ever seen at once. It was amazing to see so many spouts and tail flukes all at once. So cool.
[I got some photos, but you'll have to wait]

![__01/20/13__ Bay Overlook
These tall buildings have an excellent view of the sunset over the San Diego bay, right behind our hotel. We're here for a few days, and I'll probably be posting iPhone photos so I don't get too far behind. I have some good photo ops coming up, so stay tuned for the trip gallery.
This photo is an in-phone panorama, edited in Snapseed.

![__01/19/13__ Wheel Interior
I did a pretty good job on the symmetry with this photo, but of course I can't control the sun. I could have changed the orientation of the wheel to get the shadows straight, I suppose, but it wasn't my wheel to mess with. It was inside a tire shop that I had the unfortunate duty of visiting this morning thanks to 2 nails that decided to make their home in our right rear tire. But it's fixed now, in time for our jaunt down to San Diego - stay tuned for photos from there.

![__01/18/13__ Spinning
I've been playing around with Slow Shutter Cam, which seems to be the premier iPhone app for that purpose. It's not truly a slow shutter speed, but it simulates it pretty cleverly and allows some neat in-camera photos. This one is me spinning around in a chair. It took a bit of experimentation to get something interesting.
I find it neat that the EXIF data shows an exposure of 4 seconds, even though it's many exposures blended together, or however the app works exactly.

![__01/15/13__ Almonds
Desperation shot of some raw almonds that I roasted to make them much, much tastier.
