<p>On Jan. 11, 2000 -- when he was 19 years old -- Noah Kalina embarked on a photography project he calls "Everyday." The idea, which has since been imitated hundreds, if not thousands of times, was to take a picture of himself everyday, into perpetuity.</p><p>In 2006 he uploaded a time lapse video that encompassed six years of those daily photos to Vimeo and <runtime:topic id="ORCRP00000211004">YouTube</runtime:topic>, and it became one of the first truly viral videos on the Internet, spawning hundreds of imitators, and even inspiring a "Simpsons" parody.</p><p>This week, he uploaded a sequel to that initial video that spans a mind-boggling 12.5 years.</p><p>In the six years since the Internet last encountered Kalina, he has grown a beard and become a professional photographer. I think his eyes look sadder.</p><p>He was hired to shoot the wedding of <runtime:topic id="PEBSL000091">Mark Zuckerberg</runtime:topic> and <runtime:topic id="PECLB00014819">Priscilla Chan</runtime:topic> this year and is responsible for the beautifully lit <a href="https://noahkalina.com/73#48">shot</a> of the newly married couple in the garden that Zuckerberg posted to his Facebook page immediately after the event.</p><p>Kalina's latest video includes daily photos of himself taken from Jan. 11, 2000 through June 30, 2012. In a post on his <a href="https://blog.noahkalina.com/post/27336168930/everyday-grid-4514-photos-jan-11-2000-june-30">website</a>, Kalina says the video includes 10 frames per second. A month of his life whizzes by every three seconds.</p><p>The Everyday project clearly resonates with lots of people. The <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B26asyGKDo">original video</a> has been viewed nearly 24 million times, and this sequel, posted Tuesday, has been viewed more than 1.5 million times.</p><p>YouTube trends manager Kevin Allocca notes that although the time-lapse photo-a-day video has become ubiquitous on YouTube, Kalina was one of the first to do it, and few people have managed to collect images of themselves over more than a decade.</p><p><strong>ALSO:</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-curiosity-leaves-its-mark-on-mars-tracks-visible-from-space-20120906,0,6192963.story">Curiosity's Martian tracks photographed from space</a></p><p><a href="https://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-cat-video-festival-20120831,0,2290329.story">Missed the first cat video festival?
