A photo everyday for 6 years

[edgray]

I'm sure you guys might have seen this before, but I stumbled across it and it totally blew me away. This guy, Noah, took a photo everyday for 6 years and put them together in a film. It's pretty cool, you can see his life changing, different surrounds etc. Pretty nifty, I thought

honestly I thought it was pretty interesting. Like he must start before high school graduation, and end up in his early twenties: so you imagine all that must have happened in the guys life. Pretty cool. And also staring at his face for 6 minutes is a little freaky. Very cool video, watch it!

I kept getting distracted...I WILL watch it tomorrow morning..when I'm "fresh"

What I saw looked pretty cool though..maybe a bit long.

I think it 's interesting that he took a picture everyday for SIX YEARS. It must take a lot of motivation to keep interest for six years.

Pretty cool.

I know someone off a photography forum website, who made a music video on photos alone....yup....it was like thousands upon thousands of photos, and three days of photography (so the person said), and the camera? Canon 400D:eek

I've seen that video before. I love the music that accompanies it. :thumbup

It's quite evocative, isn't it?

i dont think I saw him smile

there's one photo, in the first minute or two where you see a smile, but the other couple of thousand photos are expressionless!

and he looks so tired in these photos...I guess he was trying for the non-emotional attachment...but you did see him age tho'

 

[porterjack]

that is a beutiful piece of art IMHO

I think that maybe he didn't want to influence the viewers emotions by openly displaying his own... leaves plenty of room for interpretation.

totally agree, one of the best I've seen.

Remember seeing this a while back. Crazy stuff, was cool to see it again. Like you mentioned though, I found it a bit trippy staring at his face for 6 minutes.
