One photo every day

Upon turning 30, this man embarked on what sounds like a very simple, pretty cool project: to take one photo every day, and, no matter what, to post it to the internet before bed that night. Looking back on the experience, and on the (gorgeously photographed) fruits of his year's labour, his musings are stirring and beautiful. About the fleetingness of moments, the imperfection of memory, the impermanence of all things... (sounds like a bit of a downer, but it's actually not! :)

He leaves it on this note...

No matter what you do in your life, what you create, what career you have, whether you have a family or kids, or make a lot of money… your greatest creation is always going to be your life’s story. Because it’s like this container that holds all of those other things. That was something I was really interested in with this project, thinking about life itself as a creation, as a story that you’re writing.”
