The Power of the Snapshot

You know I love photography and lately I've been getting into the fun of Instagram as a quick and fun way to share snapshots I take and check out others. I feel as if I get to follow along with people's lives through their snapshots there.

I think maybe that is why I'm so psyched about the latest creative project from Chase Jarvis called  Dasein: An Invitation to Hang that is now live in New York City.

I think this is a pretty cool idea and have promised myself a day trip to check it out at The Ace Hotel while it is there.

The cool part is that not only is Chase going to be getting celebrities and other famous photographers to submit snapshots to it, but there is also an open submission for everyone as well. So there will be the online digital gallery and the physical installation as well. Any photos that are printed will be anonymous so you never know who took the snapshots you are looking at.

I've already submitted a few and plan to share a few more in the coming days and weeks.

I can't wait to see where this all goes.
