Somewhere between last night and this morning, I hit the pivotal six-month mark. This whole iPhone project has been quite an experience. I embarked on this not really knowing what to expect and just jumped in. But I committed. So I have this project I have to finish, that I’m accountable for, that I can’t start only to bury on a forgotten shelf in my office or the recesses of my brain somewhere. Some days I love it; some days I hate it. And I know months from now I won’t care the difference and remember loving all of it. I’ve enjoyed seeing the arc of my progression, but even more than that, the arc of my life over the past half year. It will be interesting to see what the next half brings about.
Thank you to all who have followed this project and encouraged me along the way. I love reading your comments. I love when you stop me in the street. I love knowing dozens of you are following and saying nothing at all. I love that photographs I take with a miniature camera on a cell phone are receiving this much feedback. More importantly, I love that these tiny images are having enough effect that people see beauty in them–in the little pieces of life that I pass every day. This is how I see the world: in stills, in glimpses, in passing snapshots of isolated beauty. I have been secretly plotting a showing at the end of this. I hope to have details to share about that sometime in the relatively near future. Thank you all for staying with me.
