A Polaroid A Day for 6,000 Days [18 years!]

NYC Photographer Jamie Livingston shot a Polaroid photo everyday for 6,000 days, or, roughly, 18 years. The first shot was of his girlfriend at the time on March 13, 1979.

His last photo was on his deathbed, dying of cancer on October 25, 1997.

And so I ask you, how strong is YOUR commitment to a creative life?
Enough said.

Here’s the site where most of the images are scanned in…

    Everything composed was very logical. However, what about this? suppose you added a little content? I ain’t suggesting your information is not good, but what if you added a title that makes people want more? I mean A Photo A Day for 6,000 Days – Jamie Livingston | Chase Jarvis Blog is kinda vanilla. You ought to glance at Yahoo’s front page and watch how they create article titles to grab people to open the links. You might add a video or a picture or two to grab people interested about what you’ve got to say. Just my opinion, it could make your blog a little bit more interesting.
