Since 2010, I’ve done a photo-a-day project about every other year (2010-11, 2012, and now 2014). I have yet to achieve 365 photos — this year, I missed six days.
At the end of every photo-a-day year, I think I will probably not do another. At times, it just feels like a chore. I forget until the end of the day and then end up taking a picture of an empty pitcher of mojito on my phone. Then again, some days the project forces me outside. It forces me to look for something I want to remember or share. It also gives me a visually detailed archive of the year. At the end of my years off the project, I usually miss doing it — and decide to try again.
Anyway, here are some of my favorites from 2014.

Cherokee Park, Louisville
Those two are probably my favorite photos I took all year.
Public Garden, Boston
Race Point, Cape Cod
City Museum, St. Louis
I still don't know what those leaves are. What are they? Besides the most beautiful leaves ever?
Notre Dame cathedral, Strasbourg, France
Have you done a photo-a-day project? Do you have any favorite images from 2014? ( I particularly loved this one, and the ninth photo in this collection is powerful -- it came up in class and I saved it in my notes). If you're doing a project this year, let me know -- I'd love to follow it.
