I'm calling it 'Items of Interest' and it is as the name implies: about interesting things.
I have tasked myself with photographing items that strike me as interesting (people, objects, places) from here and there.The goal of this project is to discover these items along the routes that I take everyday or that reside within a close proximity to my apartment. Through this I hope to gain thoughts and ideas that originate from reflecting on these pieces.
There are rules of course.
For instance, I can only take one shot of each item. (So make it count.) Also I am not allowed to overlook an item of interest. If the notion registers for even the slightest second, due must be paid. This is not a race. That would overlook something key in this whole exercise: the matter of slowing down.
I hope to document my findings both here and within a Picasa album that I'll soon be creating and adding to this post. You didn't think I was going to leave you out of this?

As soon as the earth is a blurry photograph, it'll only be shootable from space. We move too fast around here. Everything changed yesterday. And as for today, it already feels like tomorrow.
