The February Project: 2012📍Santiago, Chile

February 2012 was Santiago subways, Concha y Toro by the bottle and extremely tolerant roommates.

The February project started in 2010 as sort of a belated New Year's resolution to get more comfortable using my new DSLR. I decided to lug it around with me wherever I went for a month. With it, I began collecting images of those mundane and seemingly insignificant moments that ultimately make up a life.

Over the past ten Februarys, my aging Canon and I have constructed a decade-long photo diary with the help of a point and shoot that's since passed on and more recently (and reluctantly) a pair of smartphones.

So here begins the eleventh February in the seventh city I've called my home. This year, I've decided to scrape together a small collection of images I've gathered through the years and translate them into black and whites (with a few splashes of color). Here's to the beautiful people and places who have filled my Februarys. Cheers to another year ❤️
