A Day in the Life Of…. Weekly Photography Challenge
This week your photographic challenge is to take and share a photo (or photos) on the theme of – ‘A Day in the Life Of….’ (sorry it is a little late this week!)
Be Creative – You can choose to interpret this theme in any way that you wish including by:
- taking your camera with you all day and documenting your day
- recording the day (or part of it) of someone else
- recording the day of something else (pet, building, city, street etc)
You’re welcome to take and share multiple shots (although please don’t share too many, we don’t want to fill the comments up with thousands). You might also like to mash some photos together into one collage.
Once you’ve taken your ‘day in the life of’ Images – choose your best 1-2, upload them to your favourite photo sharing site and either share a link to them or – embed them in the comments using the our new tool to do so.
If you tag your photos on Flickr, Instagram, Twitter or other sites with Tagging tag them as #DPSDAYINLIFEOF to help others find them. Linking back to this page might also help others know what you’re doing so that they can share in the fun.
Also – don’t forget to check out some of the great shots posted in last weeks Shallow Depth of Field challenge where there were some great shots submitted.

This is a timely subject. I spent a recent Sunday afternoon on historic Elm Street in Greensboro, NC.
Here’s my photo pic of the day (blogged a couple of days ago); freight train passing through town:

P.S. Is anyone else having trouble with the embedding feature? Could be I’m missing something, but it hasn’t worked for me yet.

One of my best friends challenged me to do this a couple of weeks ago. I thought “easy – I’m always taking pictures anyway!”. Turns out though, it’s not so easy. Or at least not to do it faithfully, to record the events of a normal day accurately, without missing anything, without filtering. I decided I would take at least one photo an hour, from the moment I woke up, to the moment I went back to bed AND that I would post the results within 24 hours so I didn’t have time to procrastinate or over-edit (my turn-around time is usually a month or so. Ha!). It was exhausting! And i’m not sure it turned out exactly how I would have expected it. It does mean though that I kept a whole load of pictures I would usually have binned and that I now have that one day preserved forever… I really recommend this challenge. It forces you to find beauty in everyday things, in YOUR everyday things and it gives you a great excuse for some quality time with your camera! You can see my results here:

Spent last Sunday out photographing beautiful VT and want to submit an image for a day in the life — in this case a day in the life of a photographer. I tagged it on my Facebook page but do not know if that will get it to this site.
I don’t have a website of my own. Image is not on Flickr. Any other options? Advice will be welcome.

There comes a time when a moment in your day is a moment in many other people’s day as well.

My parents reside where I once did, on the coast. I now live 5 hours inland. Surfing has been replaced with panning. I took them to one of my favourite little spots on a recent trip. For this day this was their life.

I went to the Albuquerque Zoo and watched the gorilla’s for hours. They had such expressive faces and human mannorisms. I couldn’t snap enough pictures of them. A day in the life of an Albuquerque Gorilla.

I decided to take you out with me for the day. It was Saturday 24th September 2011. I took one of my daughters to go visit my mum, we spent a bit of time at her house before visiting my sister in law and my gorgeous little neice. When returning home it was time to kick off the shoes and indulge in some Indian for dinner! It was a lovely day
