Stories about those days.

The stories that people have about Jamie’s photos are a source of amazement. ย Some are of the “that’s me and we were doing this” type of stories from Jamie’s friends. Some are the “I never met Jamie but this was taken on my birthday and it means a lot to me. And some are just stunningly moving one of a kind stories.

    October 5th is my birthday too, these photos are beautiful. I have so much respect for this man. I live in New Zealand, I am only 18 now so this was long before I was born. What a legend.

    The day I was born as well. I’ve heard that story about Mt. St Helens so many times. Very cool that someone would do this everyday for so long.

    My mother had a stroke. It paralyzed her right hand, caused serious mobility issues to her right leg and affected her speech. She put up a good fight to stay on her feet and continued to help us by folding clothes or shutting off the oven for many years. But her situation depressed her… so she kind of wound down slowly over the years. In March 2004, the first signs of lymphoma appeared. She went on for another 12 years. In 2015, my father, her husband of 49 years, passed away in front of her. After that, her soul just gave up and on August 17, 2016 she died, finally resting from pain of the lymphoma and reuniting with my dad. Thank you

    My father had a massive heartattack. They had to bring him back twice. 10 days latter he had quintuple bypass surgery, and he managed not only to survive, but to live 21 very productive, good years. He passed away on April 23, 2015, on his feet.

    Randomly stumbled on a post about Jamie’s work. Of course I had to visit this page and of course i had to look up my birth day photo.
    As another person in this thread mentions, a peacemaker was born on this day. A lover of life, a student of life, a person that honours passion, like Jamie’s, and will pass on the knowledge of finding this little spot, so that others can possibly catch a glimpse of how special this person was.
    Thank you Jamie for giving the world a nostalgic, magical view of life.

    The day I was born. My mother was watching The Three Stooges when she went into labor. How eerie it would have been had it been a ballgame instead.

    The day I was born, interesting photo to say the least. Also interesting to see what people were doing on the day I entered this crazy and beautiful but unforgiving world.

    Much love.

    10 full years before my birth. Although I am only 19, I am aspiring artist who looks for beauty and inspiration through all mediums. This man’s life and idea fascinates me, I have a strong desire to follow his idea and look for a moment beauty or tragedy and capture it, to depict my story, my life. Thank you to Hugh Crawford for keeping this website going and may Jamine Livingston RIP.

    I was born on this day, currently 23 years old. It is very weird and funny to see that the picture he took on that day is related to music. Minutes before I found out about the site, I decided that I should finally put my own music out there. I play guitar for quite a while now, and I think some of the things that come out of it might be of interest to other to hear. I just need to find the courage to record what I play, and I know it is a bit silly, but it is extremely hard for me to feel confident composing/recording music. Now look at the faces of those 2 ladies. They’re totally rocking it. The bass player couldn’t be more confident, and the guitar player looks like a rock star playing for a 100k people audience. I’m really happy this is the picture he took on my birthday.

    Wow. This is the day I was born.. And here I am, having absolutely zero connect to Jamie or the person in the photograph, and yet I feel like it’s speaking directly to me. I’ve been wandering for awhile now if I’m on the right path, that path being to pursue music, and I feel like this is telling me to go for it… I’m probably just forcing an emotion, but I don’t know. It all feels very real. Thank you, Jamie.
