Thirty-seven didn’t turn out to be the year I expected it to be, in some ways that was good and in some ways that was very much not good. Leading off with the bad because it really felt like a dark cloud over the year, work drove me to some dark places. For me, I […]

Photographing a Lunar Eclipse on 35mm Film

Blog, Photography

If you were to ask my wife why I do all of the hard things I do, she’ll tell you that it is because I can. And she isn’t wrong. I genuinely love to find out about something new, or old that I should be able to do and then spend days and weeks researching […]

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 […]
