2026-07-22Hello! I keep hoping I'll write a short article, and then it balloons in word count.I photographed the car's front grille and the Mazda logo. It's dark and monochrome, as most of my recent images seem to be.While I don't think...
2026-07-21Hello! This is another favorite image of mine.Experimenting with different perspectives, I thought that this wooden trunk could look amazing if only I framed it right.I walked by this row of trees several times, and I couldn't...
2026-07-20Hello!This time, the monochrome image is square. For some unknown reason, I chose to talk about Adrian Vila's square and monochrome photographs on a day I published a non-square image. Oh well.I feel weird taking photos at a...
2026-07-19Hello! For those just viewing on the internet: I managed to leak the entire publishing template of this newsletter to email subscribers, and I just have to deal with that circulating around now...Anyway! This is another...
2026-07-18Hello!I wanted to capture how rays of sunlight can serve as a highlighting marker, drawing my attention to certain areas within this forest.Sunlight shone through the leaves and found this open spot, hitting the leaves and...
2026-07-17Hello!I walked a long time without finding interesting photos. Even when the scenery isn't too familiar, the usual shots feel too typical and not worth my time writing an article on this website.In cases of limited inspiration,...
2026-07-16Hello!This was a weird place — I'll start with that. Some music and arts building that was open to the public but felt empty; I left a few minutes later to look for lunch.These lights are not electronic. They are open to the...
2026-07-15Hello! This is an open letter to M, my only (so far) imaginary guest. By the way, I've since learned about the word "epistolary". Reading into it, I kinda hate that trope... so this might be the last one I do in this style.For...
2026-07-14Hello! No toilet humor today. I was considering recruiting someone else to write this article, but the scheduling didn't quite work out.This is a detailed image of a log in the forest. Its bark is textured in spots and blurry...
2026-07-13Hello! I'm glad I'm not talking about roadkill today.I've looked back at all the photos I've published on this website. A surprising amount of them — including yesterday's image — are iterations and improvements on previous...
2026-07-12Hello!On a regular park walk in the afternoon, I paid attention to the light and saw this squirrel climbing around above me.Every time I go on a photowalk, it ends up producing images that I would never have expected. I got...
2026-07-11Hello!I resisted music streaming for a long while. The appeal of listening to music in the background never sat right with me. But it has its uses.When I signed up for a Spotify account, I configured my algorithm and listened...
2026-07-10Hello!My internet connection is down. Busy day today, anyways.I won't be writing much, other than to say that I'm rediscovering the camera settings and various menus. It has a suite of basic editing options!I can change some...
2026-07-09Hello! After a month, the headache of repair and replacement has concluded.This is my camera, returned to me. It hasn't been fixed. The repair costs proved to be more expensive than I could handle, and the camera could not be...
2026-07-08Hello!This is my favorite photograph from the fireworks event on July 4. If I wasn't interested in telling a complete story of my experience at the display (and the heavy storm that followed), I would be publishing this photo...
