Columnist Michael Ligtenberg is also a photographer, and has generously shared a new gallery with us at Bipolar Village. -Daniel

It was only about 15 months ago that I picked up the camera again. The reason…I wanted to provide my own pictures for the articles I have written for Bipolar Village. My fiancée, an artist, saw my work and encouraged me to do more. So I embarked on a project: post a new photo every day on Facebook for a year. I succeeded…I posted 365 photos in 365 days. I also gained a following that helped my self-esteem and kept me motivated to go on even during the rough times. Here are a dozen photos from that project.
