Project Name: Time-Specific Photo Project (formerly 1:30 PM Project)

Purpose / Principle:

  • Take a photo at the same specific time of day to document life consistently.

  • Share that photo with friends, maintaining personal connection and a sense of continuity.

  • Originally at 1:30 PM, but now the time has shifted because your daily activity patterns have changed.

Current Update:

  • Most photos now happen at 4:00 PM or later, so the project principle stays the same: capture life at a fixed reference time.

  • Time should be updated to match your current photo habits while keeping the integrity of a “time-based snapshot.”

Tasks / Steps:

  1. Pick the Current Time:

    • Decide a fixed time (e.g., 4:00 PM) to take photos daily or whenever possible.

  2. Take the Photo:

    • Capture the moment at that exact time.

    • Include subjects, scenes, or contexts that reflect your life on that day.

  3. Send to Friends:

    • Share the photo with one or more friends.

    • Optional: include a note or caption about the moment.

  4. Archive / Track:

    • Keep a record of photos with timestamps.

    • Maintain a visual log of your life over weeks, months, or years.

Goal / Outcome:

  • Continue the original project’s spirit: a daily (or regular) life snapshot at a consistent time.

  • Maintain connection with friends.

  • Build a long-term visual diary reflecting your life rhythm.

   The Quiet Company Beneath the Sun — Edwards Gardens, September (Scholz) In the gentle radiance of the afternoon sun, the garden presented itself as a small parliament of blossoms, each taking its place with the quiet dignity of characters in some rural chapter of life. Foremost, and with no small measure of enthusiasm, stood the  marigolds —stout fellows dressed in coats of flaming orange, their ruffled collars trembling ever so slightly in the breeze, as though eager to speak but waiting for a proper invitation. Interspersed among them, like modest yet spirited companions, were the  globe amaranths , each bearing a tiny, purple bonnet perched atop a slender stem. They appeared as the cheerful children of the assembly, their bright heads bobbing with innocent curiosity. Behind these, forming a soft, chartreuse carpet, sprawled a bed of  sedum —a most industrious groundcover, glowing with the steady, dependable light of one accustomed to keeping order beneath ...

  (A Fictionalized Pandemic Tale) Beaver on Bloor: When an Entire City Mistook a Squirrel for a National Icon The story you’re about to read is a fictionalized account based on real conversations, real Toronto energy, and one very real squirrel. The events are reimagined for humour, art, and the joy of urban folklore. During the long, drifting days of the pandemic — when time had the texture of cold oatmeal and the city seemed held together by takeout containers and Wi-Fi — Toronto developed a strangely wholesome urban legend. People kept seeing a beaver on Bloor Street. Or at least, they thought they did. It became one of those small, delightful distractions that cities cling to during collective stress: mysterious footprints, a blurry photo, hushed “I swear I just saw it” conversations. For over a year, reports trickled in. I joined the chase myself, wandering the stretch of Bloor with a camera, trying to catch a glimpse of this shaggy folk hero holding court between stor...
