Jamie Livingston: Photo of the Day Posted: 2 years ago by muppetmaker
Every day, for almost 7,000 days, starting in 1979, Jamie Livingston took a Polaroid. In 1997 he died, and his friends and family gathered together the photos and made them into an exhibit. This is some pretty awesome stuff.
The real website just recently got huge hits on it causing it to shut down, but here is a blog with some sample photos and a summary of this man's life. I will update the post if the website gets back up and running.
