After posting the photos from the "Day in the Life" project I did last Friday, a few people have expressed interest in doing so as well as a group effort.

The idea is that all participants would document the same day in their lives through photography. Then, over the following week or so, everyone will share the results of this effort. There are several groups on the Internet doing this already — in particular, the DITL LiveJournal Group (their next DITL day is tomorrow, BTW) and several groups on Flickr (most of which don't seem incredibly active). However, there's always room for improvement and localization.

In this case, at least at first, I'd like to try to arrange some sort of group event to occur on the same day. That way we'd all be photographing our lives and then, at some point, those lives would come together and then, later, separate again. I'm aiming for either this Saturday (the 19th) or the next (the 26th). I'm thinking I should either try to arrange something to do (picnic, movie outing, dinner, walk around the lake, party, etc). Or, perhaps I should just encourage you all to get together with one another that day by having some silly awards for the person who has the most photographs of other people taking photographs from that same day. Something like that.

So, what do you think? Any ideas? Would you like to participate? Let me know.
