It’s been said that it takes 21 days to build a habit, but after twenty-one photos in twenty-one days, what habits have formed? Am I any different today than I was on December 31st? More creative?

I feel like my writing has actually degraded over these three weeks. The photos feel reminiscent of those early instagram days before curated grids with a unified aesthetic took over the app. If anything nothing else, I feel like throughout the day I am thinking about my days more intentionally. Some days I think about my daily photo as go about my day, with so many things to see in New York, there is no shortage of inspiration. However, most days I feel like a comedian looking at some chore of quotidian life wondering “is this something?”
