Click, Save, Post, and Remember

Humans have some sort of strange fascination with numbers containing zeros. That's why the millennium thing was such a big deal nine years ago. It can also manifest itself in things such as birthdays. There are special cards printed for those special 'oh' years. An oh preceded by the dreaded five is now stalking and will be ready to pounce on me this July.

The only reason to include the photo below is because it was NUMBER 1,300. I took it on Tuesday and it just shows a pile of midterm exams that I had just photocopied for my BCIT COMM 0004 course.


I don't know how such an unimportant milestone slipped by without comment. If you follow my eJournal and images on the dedicated site, you may have already seen that the top row of almost every page contains five photos. There's always one from each of the most recent five days. They are posted on Flickr with around another 4,000 other images at present.

I started the Daily Picture Parade project on July 1, 2005. Since that date, I have not failed to take at least one photograph each day. They're not all worthy of prizes as the example above shows. Yet, collectively they add up to much of what I've been doing for the past three and a half years.
