Jim Brandenburg (world famous nature/wildlife/Geographic photographer) did just this, in the Minnesota wilderness (near where he lives) and both the National Geographic and a book publisher published his chronological photographs. Jim's picture-a-day was exactly that. "One" 35mm frame each day. Nothing more, nothing less. Starting in the autumn solstice and ending on the winter solstice. When he came out, he had used 2-1/2 rolls of film. 90 frames. Jim explains why he needed to do this, in the book. The photographs, for the most part, are very good. Some really good, some OK. But under the constraints, I don't believe I could have done as well. >> Personally, I thought the project was stunning. There were no clunkers in the take from what I could tell. Some of the images were awesome. Truly an epic project. Bob
