For the rest of your life Feb 20, 2008 at 09:50
Man Cheung has embarked on an artistic mission of the same ilk as Sadako Sakasi and her paper cranes, or local hero Two and his thousand cans. Cheung is taking one photo a day for the rest of his life. Beginning this year, it's off to a flying start. Kooky, interesting, mundane, pretty, ugly, weird, scary, all kinds of images are here, and I'm hoping he keeps it up.

Cheung is a photographer from Brisneyland, who is now based in London, who likes photos of simple, everyday things, and, according to his buddy Haw (who put us onto him) he also really likes playing Nintendo.

The website offers very little information; it's almost solely Cheung's photos. And it's amazing how much you can see of somebody's life through such a mixed bag of images. I feel a little bit like a voyeur. A little bit creepy. A little bit heavy-breathing-stalker-who-doesn't-know-you-but-knows-you'd-be-soulmates. You know? No?

They're cool pictures, and it's an awesome idea.

I've found Chueng's photos quite addictive. My visual vallium for the day. Amidst all the yelling/smahing/sending/shoving/hustling/moving of the everyday mishmash, a cup of tea and 'picture of the day' always calm my nerves. Like those mini zen garden desk ornaments but less messy. Keep on snapping Chueng!

The picture with the storm troopers and the old building is awsome, colours are great.

Nice shots there, very artistic. Professional by chance? The street shots are like something you'd see in a magazine. Keep up the good work and daily entertainment.

I think it's a very good idea... and beautiful photographs.
