Oh, sweet readers. I beat you and ignore you, yet still you come back for more.
You should be in therapy.
Best Picture:
Really, DebRichardson gets points just for her tenacity. She is STILL taking pictures twice a day. She should definitely be in therapy.
Best Story:
And TheWholeSelf, who shows us exhaustion after chasing two babies. She needs some massage therapy.
Creative Interpretation:
Then there’s ReporterStone, giving us a glimpse into her “window”, and the changing views without. She gets to go to therapy, too.
Hottest Photo:
And TwistedSoda13, who just looks great. No therapy for her.
Maybe it’s the Spring being here or maybe its just that our lives are busy but several other bloggers and I have been taking a break so it was hard to find my top picks this week. Here the are all the same, and Happy SPRING to you all!

I am so loving everyone’s interpretation of TIME! I love all the different takes on the daily picture. I haven’t been so great with the theme this month, but I’m going to try this week.
Soooo many great interpretations this week. I’ve really enjoyed reading what I’ve found.
But my picks this week are:
Composition:
This was a really well put-together concatenation of school pictures, by RhonnaFarrer.
Creative Interpretation:
MadOrganica shows us the effects of time on creativity.
Best Story:
This is the best story, as told through pictures. I love that Deb was consistent in taking pictures at 11:11 day and night. Great story.
Hottest Picture:
Not much of an explanation for why I like this. Heck, not much of an explanation alongside the photo. But Lelonopo makes me want to be here friend, with a wry smirk and fun angle.

Hi everyone - new members might be temporarily suspended but the challenges go on. And for new members desperate to join in - please do - and feel free to post your link as a comment for others to browse through.
There is still one week to go with the “all of me” challenge - I wanted to let you all know how much I am enjoying reading and viewing everyones brave posts in this month.
Time marches on and we are up to March - so I thought for march we would explore time.
why:
{Taken from Marc Tasman - he takes a polaroid image everyday:}
“There are few rational reasons for doing this. One is to document and observe my own face and body and its features as they bulge and shrivel; as hair grows and recedes. This work is a visual diary of my moods. A means of telling stories (my own, as well as others’). A sketchbook of sorts, from which ideas for paintings, performances, videos, animations, digital images, writing and websites spring. Proof that I existed. A desperate swipe at corporal immortality. A mystical jab at salable art in the gallery system. It is a discourse on identity. A way to process and digest reality and memory. A linear, unedited memoir in nonlinear times.”
I all these amazing links to share with you, but first let me explain the challenge.
For one month I would like you to document time - in order to …
- document and observe physical changes in yourself
- create a discourse on identity
- keep a visual diary of moods
- tell stories
I would also encourage you to read this essay by Andy Walker who documented himself for 1 year in polaroids. An extract you may find helpful:
“I didn’t know what might happen next. What would transpire and what would I capture? I put myself in front of the camera whether content, frustrated, drunk, tired, victorious, unhappy, flat, shy, injured, alone, exuberant, at home, travelling, nervous, vulnerable, busy, distracted or sick. The result is a sequence of responses; an aspect of my past as I saw myself through a series of frames. … The complete set of photos narrates both my movement through time and my physical changes in place. … A large part of my interest in this project was in doing it and finishing it, always applying rigor and integrity. I believe it only holds together if the observer understands the program and believes it was executed honestly.”
You may do this in a number of ways some - some ideas I have thought up - feel free to interpret this yourself.
format: you may want to be a bit adventurous with format with this one - use a polaroid camera and scan the images at the end of the week (if you have these facilities). go to your local photobooth at the same time everyday and then scan the results at the end of the week. A digital camera is going to be easiest with this one - as I want at least 7 photos each week - more is fine of course.
Examples:
Polaroid daily photos:

Ellie Harrison needs a section to herself - she many projects going on:
list of webbased project here - a couple of interesting ones listed below:
eat22 - documented all her meals over a 1 year period
project x - a weightloss project with herself and her mother
Day to day data - a travelling exhibtion curated by Ellie Harrison - “Day-to-Day Data exhibits the work artists who seek inspiration from insignificant details in their own or the publics’ everyday lives – artists who use daily experience as research material from which to obtain their data.”
