Here is the original, and currently the one and only, copy of Twenty-nine. I'm pretty happy with it. Hopefully I can get you all a copy someday when I find a reasonable way to print it in bulk.
Thanks for following the progress of this project (if there is anyone out there!) I'll be leaving this blog as it is for now, but starting back up at www.tylerensrude.blogspot.com. It's connected to this blog through my profile actually. I'll probably be working more with color and focusing more on digital photography again. Check it out, link it, RSS it... and keep in touch. Thanks again.

Week 54
The final cake shot from my birthday evening. Almost the same shot as a year ago (minus one candle and some different cake).
Twas a good year. A year goes by quickly when you look at every week and the simple things we see everyday are what I've found to be the most important and moving. Couldn't ask for much more than that. On to next year! Keep checking back and buy a book of "twenty-nine" when it comes out! (name of book and photos on this blog my be subject to change or not included).

Week 53
The Cherry Blossoms
So I couldn't resist the week before my birthday. I had to take some shots of the cherry blossoms and I decided to use color. I think that will be a hint of what's to come. I love the 70s look I get on my old camera.
Next week I'll have the final shot or two I took on my birthday, which was pretty uneventful by the way (mainly because it fell on a Tuesday and it was the only day last week that it rained!). This will end the "twenty-nine" project I had set out to complete. More on that next week sometime. So once again...the posts are a week ahead so this actually is week 52.

Week 52
The Sun and the Shadows
It was so bright that I couldn't really see what I was taking. And, in return, no one could see me. I liked the long shadows and the frozen motion from the fast shutter. Especially the smoker I walked by and the back of the women's head in the crosswalk.
(Although this looks to be the final post of "twenty-nine" I went back and noticed that I mislabeled week 39 as week 40. So I'm actually a week ahead. I'll also post some pics of April 14th as the final set, so it will come out to be 54 weeks. Next week will be color film.)

Week 51
The Platform
A common subject matter again for many photographers. I've always wondered what I would do If I ever saw someone go over the edge. I'm often suprised at how far over the yellow line people dare to go.
This is one of my favorite platform shots from Bruce Davidson's Subway, which I believe I've seen available at Bondi Books.
This guy had his toes over the edge, but I just missed it.

Week 50
The Importance of Timing
You can take 24 shots of a rock or a tree or whatever and call it art and that's fine (art). I do that occasionally. It's good for your perspective I think and some people are extremely good at it.
Or you can look at the world as it's passing you by and try to stop it in mid stride. I love timing and decisive moments in photography, but they are so hard to get. Ikko Narahara is one of my favorites from Japan. You can't beat his timing. I tried to do something with timing this week, but it's hard to do discretely and still come up with something worth showing...
I may have already shown this book, but it's worth showing twice. I may have even written about timing, but that's how dang important it is!
I believe this was an old woman...

Week 49
The Ume Blossoms
Most photographers (and everyone else for that matter) tend to focus on the ever popular cherry blossoms around Japan this time of year. Here are some shots of the underrated plum blossoms around the park which are equally beautiful and bloom a lot earlier than the cherry trees. These particular trees seemed very old, but were holding on with a few blossoms popping out here and there.
The cherry trees should start any day now. Also, here is a great book on snow and the cherry blossoms from Risaku Suzuki called Yuki Sakura.

Week 48
The Bag of Tricks
Something about the plastic bags these volunteers were holding attracted me to these shots after I scanned them. They almost seem to be moving or pulling the subject along like a dog on a leash. Also, I've always wondered why they use those tiny cooking tongs to pick up trash here. Can't be good for the back.
