Romain Ballez: 60 Quotes Project

Romain Ballez has taken up an unusual challenge: illustrate 60 quotes with photographs. The project has started in september 2009, and so far Romain has done 43 out of 60 quotations from poets, musicians, writers.

The belgian photographer tries to take different kind of photos, long exposures, strobist, bokeh, and gives them a context, a story, through the quotes. Quite a nice idea huh? I really like his imagination, it is refreshing to see a whole new kind of project. Maybe he will be followed by other photographers!

365: one photo a day

One photo a day; this is how many photographers have challenged themselves. It's called a 365. flickr has many of these galleries, and there are even websites specialized in hosting this kind of project.

I was very curious about this concept, how it started. After some research on the Internet, bingo!

It is time for this blog to have its first thread: each thursday from this day on, I will post a 365 you can follow.

In tribute to Stephen Poff, let's see what he can do!
