As you might have guessed from my constant spamming of photos on this blog, I’m doing a project to take a photo every day for the year. I have many reasons, the major one being that I enjoy photography, and I wanted to push myself into really taking the time to participate in it this year.

Someone else who has just completed a similar project is Andrew Gunsberg, or more commonly known as Andrew G. Host of Australian Idol amongst many, many other things, you could say he’s quite well known in Australia. You could even describe him using the c word…NO! Not that one! You’re so rude. I meant celebrity!

Andrew’s task was simple – take a self portrait every day, for 365 days. Unless you attempt this yourself, you have no idea just how difficult that is. You can only pose in front of the mirror so many ways, and then it gets boring. I haven’t restricted myself to self portraits; I have the whole world facing my lens and yet I’m still finding it tough.

Following Andrew G’s journey throughout the year has been incredibly fascinating for me. It was an inside look into the life of someone I only ever see on the telly. It was a fly in the wall moment to experience a moment of his life for 365 days, something that is usually so personal. His photos, for want of a better word, are magical.

Take a look, his photo collection can be seen online at Flickr here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/andrewgunsberg/sets/72157619664755998/. Grab a coffee, press Play on the slideshow, and sit back and enjoy yourself. You won’t be disappointed.
