One Day In Your Life
Thomas Seropian over at Follow The Way has posted an announcement of a new photo blogging project, One Day In Your Life, that he has set up in cooperation with a friend based in China. Although the criteria in terms of times required for the taking of photographs to be posted seems a little bit too restrictive for my liking, it sounds interesting.
Here’s what Thomas has to say, and I’m glad to see the general format of the project is still up for discussion. Personally, I’d like to see more flexible requirements for posting.
The concept is pretty much simple.
The only rule is the time : the first photo must be shot at 10:00, the second at 14:00, then 18:00 and 22:00.
Then, you are free to take whatever you want in photo.
So, each day bring its different views from different eyes, but shot at the same time.
Of course you’re taking pictures only once (or several time if you enjoyed the experience). You are not supposed to take 4 pictures a day.
And moreover, you don’t need to be an expert photographer. We are more interested by inspiration than techniques.
Everyone is more than welcomed to join this project by publishing pictures and joining discussions about them. We would be more than flattered to give opportunity to people from as many different horizons as possible.
I’m currently starting this project up. There is no defined starting date, as it really depends of the number of people ready to take part to the game. Anyway, the website will be ready to use within 2 weeks.
Full details are available here.
Actually, I take back what I said about the criteria being too restrictive. Thought Thomas wanted people to post constantly. Didn’t realize it was just a one-off. In that sense, great idea if enough people get involved.
