„A picture a day“ is the photoblog of Jule Steffen and Matthias Schmidt, both freelance art directors
(and avocational photographers) living and working in Cologne, Germany.
They are the founders of kikkerbillen and co-founders of metabeta.
On a picture a day Jule and Matthias – besides some sporadic guests – are posting one picture every day for almost 5 years now.
Recently they launched their call for submissions* (please see below) to invite guests more frequently. They also started kikkerbillen.tumblr.com as a copy of the initial site with some additional entries concerning all kinds of things they find interesting.
The long-term plan is to widen out a picture a day into a platform for dedicated amateur and professional photographers with options to discuss the respective works, to get to know each other and to be inspired.
