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!

So if you read the caption for yesterday's photo and followed the link, you saw how I replaced part of the brick patio in Photoshop. I'd never done much with the content-aware features in CS6, but I was intrigued. So today, I took a snapshot of myself and replaced everything except my eyes and the background using content-aware fill. I like the result, and I did have to play around to see what selections I needed to make so it didn't get too crazy on me.

![__02/05/13__ ¡New Toy Alert!
This lens flare is coming out of (yes, out) my new 28-300mm lens that I just got in the mail. It also came with a D600. That's right, folks: I'm going full frame.
I set up for a much more involved photo where my 'old' D7000 was back to back with the new D600 with their 28-300 and 18-200 lenses. I shined a flashlight into the D7000 and because the eye pieces were lined up, the light traveled through one camera, into the other and out the D600's lens, and then I was going to take a photo from above, showing both cameras. Make sense? Well no matter, it didn't really work how I originally envisioned. Way too dim. Maybe I'll try a laser next time. If only I had a laser...
But enough of my rambling, I got a new camera! Yay!

![_12/13/12_ Flashing Lights
This is a four-second exposure of frantically flashing Christmas lights that we had in our window. The string of lights has various settings, from soothing-pulsing-glow to hyper-rave-seizure, and I chose one near the latter for this shot. It's similar to camera toss photos like the ones I did on 12/5/09 and 12/25/09.

![_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.

![_11/28/12_ Still on the 'Quil
Sick for the 3rd straight day. I even missed a whole day of a conference because of this! Lame. This tasty green stuff didn't help me sleep at all last night, hopefully tonight is a different story.
In happier news, I uploaded the 4 missing photos from our recent trip to Big Bear over the Thanksgiving weekend. Check 'em out, they're pretty good if I may say so myself.

Still sick. This is a desperation shot of our neighbor's window. It was the more interesting of two windows I had to choose from.
