Photographer Jamie Livingston, took a polariod photograph every day for 18 years up until the day that he died. You can see the photographs (numbering over 6,000) on this website or learn more by listening to a taped version of the radio interview (where I found out about this person). I admire people who are able to do something creative everyday. I'd like to say I sketch each day but this is clearly not so. A heart wrenching and fascinating website that any creative or curious individual should see...
Here is a rather small sample of my favorite photographs:
Back in the 70's...
Ahem... the day I was born!
You can see the author of the project to the left near his collection of photo's (still in the 70's)
I love the silly pictures. Don't you just wonder what is going on here? 
In the hospital due to cancer.
His wedding, mere weeks before his death.

Time may change me but I can’t trace time.
Sorry, I’ll stop singing now (be glad you can’t hear my off-key Bowie rendition.) I wanted to give all you wonderful OUP readers a heads-up that some surface changes will be taking place on Sunday night and the blog may be a bit wonky. Try and do your blog reading beforehand, or wait until Monday and let us know what you think of the greener OUPblog.

Cool idea. Many of us probably wish we could do that. So many small moments are lost to hectic lives!
Thanks for sharing the links!
Very interesting. Just these photographs can say so much about him and how he lived. Inspiring.
