Time of my Life

17 years worth of taking 2 photos a day as my head rotates in sync with the Earth around the Sun. This is a non-dejittered, lo-res, highly compressed, preliminary version of a lifetime project. Later versions will have additional imagery throughout. More details are available on my website at: http://www.danhanna.com

Steven Hoskins is creating an alternate version of this which you can view at:

Didnt you say you'd have an update of the video to mark 20 years (which i think was last june) Are you working on it or is it up? If so where can i find it??

[danxhanna]

Paying work always takes priority so that I can pay the bills. Unfortunately I haven't had enough free time yet to complete the updated video. There will actually be two (very different) updates and I've been working on the simpler version whenever I get the chance. However it'll probably still be a while before I'm ready to post it. In the meantime, I continue to take the photos.

Did you always have that V shape hairline? like it looks like it receded and stayed like that for years... Or was it always like that? Im just wondering because it will make me feel better about my hairline... like that there will be hope that it will stop and just stay how it is. Lol

[danxhanna]

Yes, I've always had an "Eddie Monster" type hairline. The hair loss really started to expand and recede along my temples and the crown of my head at around the age of 38.

1:45 you had your mouth open for 3 months?

[danxhanna]

My nose was stuffed up for 3 months and I had to breath through my mouth :)

It's actually a scream. The next version of the video will have the appropriate audio dubbed in.

You look like Bob Hope,the hair,brilliantly done

When I was born, you were apparently having a pretty bad hair day (2/6/98). xD

This deserves about a million thumbs up. Serious dedication here.

[Catawallupin]

Nice work! I love the spin on time lapse and admire your dedication to the project.
