\"On March 21st, I was one of over 2000 street photographers around the world participating in this year\u2019s 24 Hour Project<\/strong> who walked the streets shooting for 24 hours, posting a photo every hour on instagram. As described by its founders, Sam Smotherman<\/span><\/a> and Renzo Grande<\/span><\/a>, the project aims to document and share the human condition around the world in real time. This was the event\u2019s 4th edition; I\u2019ve participated every year since its inception.
\nIt\u2019s quite a challenge to get from midnight to midnight - physically, emotionally and creatively, there are ebbs and flows that you only have partial control over. I like to think that I\u2019ve been getting better at anticipating low points both in terms of my energy, my iPhone\u2019s energy, and the energy of the city streets. Plotting out a route to take you through the day only goes so far. We\u2019ve found that having a general plan and remaining open to improvisation and change is the best way to approach the task. Shooting with friends also provides safety, support and an extra layer of fun.
\nAs in past years, this year I shot exclusively with Hipstamatic<\/strong> and Oggl<\/strong> as we made our way from the Lower East Side to Penn Station, Times Square, Central Park, the Museum of Modern Art, Bushwick and Soho, to name a few notable stops. Some of the photos in this portfolio are not ones I chose in the moment to post during the day \u2013 you can see more of my day on instagram in my stream, @shelserkin<\/span><\/a>. Be sure also to check out @24hourproject and 24hourproject.org<\/span><\/a> for more information about the event and to see a curated stream of photos from around the world. \"<\/em>
