A Photo of That Day
Jamie Livingstone took a photo every day from March 31st, 1979 until his death on October 25th 1997. Every single day he took a polaroid photo of himself, his friends, household objects, people going about their daily lives or just what was around him. His friends have now put his collection online and the photos are absolutely fascinating.
Can you imagine the dedication of taking a photo every single day for 18 years? I can barely stick with anything for more than a month or two. The tiny snapshot of history these photos capture is just incredible.
There is a great piece on Mental Floss about Jamie and why he embarked on capturing a tiny fragment of life every day for 18 years.
