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!

2013-04-21 CicLAvia Terminus
This is a panorama of Venice Beach at Windward Avenue (where the "VENICE" sign is), which was packed with bicyclists that participated in CicLAvia, including myself - that's my bike on the left. CicLAvia is Los Angeles' version of events that apparently have become common throughout South/Central America where major city streets are closed off for the exclusive use of pedestrians and bicyclists. It's happened a few times, but before today it was only around downtown, which is a bit far without driving, and that would sort of defeat the purpose. Today's route included Venice Boulevard all the way to the ocean, so I jumped on for a few miles. 
It was a lot of fun! I plan on doing it next time for sure.

_12/27/12_ Palm and Clouds
The almost-full moon tonight lit up the partly cloudy sky in a cool way. This is a 30-second exposure with a palm tree in my mom-in-law's backyard for some context. 
I've now had a whopping three photos in a row with my D7000. But I'm positive I'll be back to the iPhone tomorrow. Any guesses as to why???

_12/21/12_ Apocalypse Blue
The only photo I took today. It has not been a good day. 
I didn't take it with this in mind, but it is a little end-of-days - like the massive sun explosion blew off the heads of these two palm trees.

Freeway Overpass #2
Walking up Virgil, under the 101 freeway.
_11/02/12_ Flags
Some surprisingly colorful flags for a freeway interchange construction site...

_07/13/12_ Pretty Sky
Wispy clouds + clear sunset + 15 minutes = this scene. It's a good example of waiting until after sunset to get pretty clouds, and also adding something for context (it's much more meaningful with the palm trees).
