Self-Portrait.

Who is this stranger on my blog?

This is Karl Baden- a photographer who has taken a self-portrait of himself every single day for the past 20 years. From what I understand, he takes the photograph every single morning when he wakes up. He does not use digital photograhphy, so if the camera messes up- he misses a day. I think this is a neat concept- think of the changes you would see in your appearance. Day by day they would be extremely subtle, but 5 years? 10 years? 15 years? My photography teacher told us that he sells them for $10- one for each day, which = $3,650 x 20 years = $73,000. My teacher bought one- I think the date on his is his wedding anniversary!
