I stumbled upon this blog of a woman who takes a photo of what she eats everyday: http://notitleyet.tumblr.com/All polaroids, in fact, each with a lomo-style, retro edge, but somehow she still manages to make the food appear appetizing (some of it, at least). I think this is about far more than documenting what she eats- there is a small expression at the bottom of each photo that seems to fit perfectly with the image. Concentrating on one subject every day is a great way to perfect your craft. Maybe I will only photograph umbrellas from now on...
On a similar note, Jay recently started taking a self-portrait everyday on his laptop. This is very easy to do now, since we use our computers everyday and taking a photo is one mouse click of effort. I've always been fascinated with those slideshows of a year's worth of someone's face. There are bound to be subtle changes everyday. Thus another project ensues, more to come later...
