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!

_06/15/12_ Orange Ladder
Here's a construction scene I snapped on my bike ride home. It's part of the 405 widening project - it looks like they're just building a big wall at this section. I liked the single color, the texture, the vertical rods... all that stuff. I tend to like construction scenes, although I feel a little silly taking photos of them sometimes. I'm sure all the cars passing by were wondering what was so interesting about it.

_06/02/12_ Building Interior
Got another phone photo for ya today. My wife and I went furniture shopping this afternoon and this is part of one of the buildings, which appeared to be the elevator, but didn't look like they use it anymore. We didn't buy anything but I do declare that someday soon, we shall procure a new coffee table.
I think this scene caught my eye mainly because of the single window, but also the variety of 'industrial' textures and surfaces.

__01/18/12__ Long Climb
At first I wanted to post a super dark photo as a blackout protest against SOPA and PIPA, but chose a real photo instead. This is part of a construction crane, specifically the part where it transitions from sun to shade. I processed the photo quite a bit, but I like the look. It's crazy to think that a crane operator starts their day by climbing straight up this thing.
What if you forget something? Or have to pee?

_11/23/10_ South Point
Hawaii Day 4
After a delicious breakfast at Big City Grill, we left Oahu and flew to the Big Island. We rented a car and drove around the South side of the island to our vacation rental on Pahoa. At least I hope we did - we're still driving as I type this.
On the drive there we stopped at South Point where people were jumping off cliffs into clear blue water. This marks the Southernmost point of Hawaii and therefore the United States. We also stopped at the Punalu'u black sand beach, which was awesome and really confused my camera's metering system :)

More Hawaii Photos!
