I accepted a challenge back in May to take and publish one picture a day for one year. Little did I know, this challenge would awake the little photographer in me who has been hiding out for a few years. This picture a day gig has become very important to me. I feel like it is bigger than a silly photo a day. It's a collection. It's art. It's challenging. And I think it's inspiring.

Day 88, Missoula Rabble, Jason and Aurelia
Jason and Aurelia call themselves traveling vaudevillians. Vaudeville was variety show entertainment at the turn of the century like juggling, acrobatics, magicians and music. They dressed in steampunk garb and had a variety of instruments before them. The two are partners and work as traveling street musicians. Jason explained the difficulties the pair have had competing against panhandlers and street kids in Missoula. "You're witnessing something authentic when you watch us," he said. When they aren't traveling street musicians, Jason works on an organic farm and Aurelia teaches circus arts. "We are committed to a creative lifestyle that allows us to be who we are," Aurelia said.
