Tonight we cross off the last day of 2009, cast off any residual dredges of the past 365 days, and begin anew. 2010 looms fresh and unsoiled, free of mistakes, heartbreak, disappointment. It is time to begin projects, make resolutions, reconstruct your outlook on the direction and path you travel, and to embrace the next chapter.
In that spirit I give you a project of my own. It shall be known as "Kathimerina Fotografia: 365" (which I am told by the online Greek translator I googled moments ago means "daily photograph"). Perhaps you've heard of Project 365 (see example here) or L'Image Quotidienne (get info here). Both feature the same idea: to take one photo, every day, in an attempt to chronicle the day-to-day events that comprise our lives. It can be a photo of a person, a place, a ticket stub, a taxi cab, anything you like. Simply choose a subject that in some way signifies your day (for instance, I will be purging my bedroom of excessive things this weekend; perhaps you'll be privy to a large pile of clothes -- time will tell!).
So, beginning tomorrow, I will post the first of 365 images, all of which will, in the end, lend credence to my 2010 experience (I hope). I don't know yet if I will post them daily, collect them over the span of seven days and post a large batch weekly, etc. The details will decide themselves as we go along!
Oh, and why a Greek title you may ask? I have no idea. Simply seemed like a good idea at the time. I imagine that sentiment will become a theme during the course of this project.
