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!

This morning my wife and I got up before dawn so we could take in the ocean at the Santa Monica Pier, and maybe I'd sneak in a photo or two. My favorite shot is of these mussels and... scaly things (also a type of mussel? I don't know) that were clinging onto one of the pylons. The tide was obviously low, but on its way back in, so I got a bit wet. Is it me, or do some of them really look like beaks?
Also, Happy Mothers Day!
UPDATE: Thanks to Stan - the scaly things are called Gooseneck Barnacles. They have a Wikipedia page, so you know he's telling the truth :)
