    On June 17 every year, Diego Goldberg takes a photo of himself, his wife and their three sons. He started the project in 1976.

    He decided to vote for the Conservatives instead of Labour.

    Or he died. Not sure which.

    Ah. I thought it was because it looked like he morphed into Jake Gyllenhaal.

    I reckon the son is about as old in the last pic as the father was when he started taking the photos.

    Great idea.

    What strikes me the most is that by the final picture, the three sons had all adopted the exact same style of facial hair.

    I noticed that. A bit odd. I got the photo from another site.

    Diego Goldberg's webpage has all the pix up to 2010 (but not as one jpeg I believe).

    IMO Diego himself has changed the least. Perhaps consistency is his main personality trait: e.g. maintaining facial hair and taking the same photo on the same day every year for more than three decades so far.
