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!
![_12/08/12_ East to LA
I took a little trip on my bicycle to downtown Santa Monica to get a freeway photo, and here it is. It's not the most super-exciting freeway photo, so I spiced it up with some editing in Lightroom. Nothing too crazy.

![_11/15/11_ Yosemite Slide
I decided to go through some of my mom's dad's slides that I inherited after he passed away a couple years ago. Apparently they took a trip to Yosemite in October of 1952, just over 59 years ago - before my mom was even born. Many of you will recognize this slide as Tunnel View, although the scene is flipped so I could photograph the side of the slide that said 'Kodachrome'. Nearly everyone that visits Yosemite probably took a photo like this. I know I did.
I actually didn't spend much time looking through slides, although this one certainly caught my eye. Mostly, I was figuring out how to put together the Viewlex Change-O-Matic slide projector. I'm a little afraid to plug it in for fear of the 50-year-old 300-watt bulb exploding, but I'll get around to it. Expect to hear more about that eventually - I can get at least another daily photo or two out of it.

![_03/29/11_ Streaks
For some reason, I really wanted to take a freeway photo today. This is the 10, or "Interstate Ten" or "I-10" as some people call it. Apparently folks from outside Southern California get annoyed when we personify our roads. Or is it objectify? Or something else? I don't know, but that's how people talk here.
Anyways, this was taken in Santa Monica at the 17th Street bridge, close to where it ends and turns into PCH or "Pacific Coast Highway."
You can see what I did to take the photo in this setup photo, or "photograph."
