My Journey...an Inspiration?

In my previous post on the necessity for multimedia, I do believe that I may have found an inspiration for a central theme to my blog.  I believe that I would like to explore taking a photograph each day to see if they relate over time, or at all.  

Photography is a release for me, not always an expression of my emotions, but of my creativity.  I feel that through photography as an individual, daily task, I could capture a new expression each day I take one, or multiple pictures. 

In order to connect these photos, I may attempt to create a video towards the end of the semester that composes all of the photographs in chronological order, however as I begin this task my final wanted outcome may change.   Also, I may feel that one semester does not give enough time to find deep relations into my photography, and  I may want to continue the project until I feel that it is completed.

I will begin tomorrow, and I plan to organize these photos on a weekly basis, maybe not one per day, but whichever photographs (at least one) I take in one day that I find particularly influential or moving.

A very fine, flexible frame for a project --a frame that permits, perhaps even, in your design, encourages growth.

The nature of connection itself is interesting; what are effects of multiple, especially multiple (apparently) simultaneous connections?
Do connections pull on/toward objects of their links?
Strength of connection?
Are/can/should all (as much as that can be determined) photographs connected by being photographs?
Is a specified connection variable along the length of it?
Is length a useful word to give shape to a connection?
