Project 365: Take a photo a day

Project 365: Take a photo a day
Over the last few weeks, I have been read a lot about Project 365. People around the world are participating in this "project" for which they take a picture a day for a full year.

To me, this sounds like a great way to document the life of a child. Just a few of what you could document: Feet jumping under a jumper, eating cereal, hands holding a bottle, swinging at the park, going for a walk, snuggling with mom... The options are endless, and with the series of photographs, parents will later be able to show their child what a year of their life was like.

You can find out more about Project 365 through the article "Project 365: How to Take a Photo a Day and See Your Life in a Whole New Way" on Photojojo. A quick Google search of Project 365 also brings up other blogs and Flickr groups taking part in the project.

As for me, I have been interested in this project since I heard about it, and I have decided to jump right in. Want to follow my family's adventures with Project 365? Check it out at A Year in the Life. Please let me know if you decide to participate, too - I would love to follow along! - Sara I.

Back in the days of film I took a course at ICP called “A Roll A Day”, with a similar premise. It is an incredibly worthy journey if you can keep up with the editting.

I would encourage people to print the images or publish them in a book. I recently wrote a piece for DivineCaroline with ideas on how to print/publish photos: http://www.divinecaroline.com/article/22155/67133-print-perish

Christy and Renee, thanks for the links.  I can’t wait to follow along!  Sue, I love your article about printing your images, too - I can already see that too many of mine will be lost and forgotten if left on my computer!
