Solar Eclipse 2024

Blog, Photography

At the beginning of this year, I didn’t know that photographing the eclipse on film was something that I wanted to do. Heck, I don’t think it even registered for me that there would be an eclipse. Then, I saw some videos where people were hyping it up and why and suddenly I was hyped […]

High School – Roll 9

Blog, Photography

Whositwhatsit? I’m pretty sure that the was the name of this assignment. Find an object and shoot it from different angles and then other people had to guess what it was. I think mine was guessing in about 5 seconds or less. (It’s a bike rack!) I genuinely hated this assignment. I remember having so […]

Photographing an Eclipse on 35mm Film

Blog, Photography

Recently, it came to my attention that the 2024 solar eclipse will be happening next month. On a whim, I decided to take a day off, and make a day of it. I have been itching for some time to relax, and celestial events are a good catalyst for relaxation, in my opinion. However, I […]

High School – Roll 8

Blog, Photography

There was no assignment for this roll, and to be honest I don’t really know why I took it. Likely, some younger form of me was trying to make the camera part of his personality and was bringing it along wherever he went. Who knows? The photos themselves are blurry but an aggressive kind of […]

High School – Roll 7

Blog, Photography

These photos are all bad. Really, I had to pull up the negatives to make sure I didn’t make a mistake while scanning these and sure enough, they are all bad. It looks like I had some weird light leak or development issue because every single photo has some sort of rippling along the strip. […]

It is fundamental


Blog

Things are finally settling down around here. I read my last reading for class this afternoon. I then proceeded to clean the apartment (well except the bathroom because that is a task too big to share). I have three exams and then I am free for the summer. Not free, no it would be wrong […]

As you may have read, I recently landed a job designing a website for a poster shop in town. While I am quite ecstatic to take on this task, it also is a little overwhelming right now (though that could be because I am finishing my hell week with school). I plan on writing the […]

Twenty meters before the end-stop


Blog

I forgot today is Wednesday. Which means I forgot I had to put a comic up. I wrote a paper instead. My apologies. It is up now. I give you this little amusement for reparations. “A poetic duel to the death?” “Haha, that’d be so boring.” Also, I found a sweet chair for use on […]

Papers and websites


Blog

Apparently is it crunch time here at school. Sadly, today’s comic is quite reflexive of my next couple weeks. I actually think the comic might be an understatement. The back of my mind has three papers and a portfolio floating around it at all times lately. It was about a week ago that I realized that […]
