“Content” is created for others to consume. To fill a bottomless void created by corporations.

Art is something we create for ourselves. To fill our own soul.

We need more artists in this world.

For those in California that need to upgrade to a Real ID, submitting scans of your documents online allows you to go in the appointment line at the DMV without an appointment. I only spent 20 minutes or so at the DMV. Utterly painless.

This is my final photo from my February visit to Death Valley. While hiking down an alluvia fan, I spotted this white rock cradled by a dead desert holly. Photographed on Fuji Provia 100f 8x10 film with my Chamonix Alpinist X and a Fujinon A 240mm lens.

If zip ties and duct tape got into a fight, who would win?

A photo from my February visit to the desert. Photographed on Fuji Provia 100f 8x10 film using my Chamonix Alpinist X with a Nikkor SW 150mm. I spotted this short-lived glow the day before, noted the time, then returned to this canyon a bit earlier the following day to photograph it.

Whenever I see the word “Flatiron”, I read it as “Falitron” — which sounds more like a Transformer.

A photo from my February visit to the desert. It was a dry and windy winter, and I loved how course sand was blown among the mud tiles. Photographed on Fuji Provia 100f 8x10 film with my Chamonix Alpinist X camera and a Fujinon C 300mm f/8.5 lens.

On a windy day in Death Valley, I hiked to a canyon that was sheltered from the wind and photographed this wonderful glow. Photographed on Fuji Provia 100f 8x10 film with my Chamonix Alpinist X camera and a Fujinon A 240mm lens.

Much like my post from yesterday, this too is a scene I’ve tried to photograph several times before finally getting it right. Photographed on Fuji Provia 100f 8x10 film with my Chamonix Alpinist X camera and a Fujinon C 300mm f/8.5 lens.

Maple leaves love to dance in the slightest of a breeze, but on this particular morning, the air was perfectly still during this 32 second exposure. Photo on Fuii Provia 100f 8x10 film with a Fujinon A 240mm lens on my Chamonix Alpinist X camera.

Ever have the urge to stand outside a coffee shop and ask people what time it is?

This is hilarious on many levels. I mean, Mesa Arch? It’s clearly a place I hang out with all my hot influencer friends.

Packing print portfolio orders today.

Many of you who ordered my 2024 print portfolio will receive shipping notifications soon. Once all of them have been mailed, I’ll begin shipping zine orders.

Anyone else have a cat that demands to be spun?

I’ve received my shipment of zines, and they turned out great. I spotted one mistake, but it’s no biggie. I used the same caption for 2 photos. But those are the sort of imperfections that make our work real, something I reference in the introduction.

For those who have ordered a zine, I will receive the shipment from the print shop on Friday and will begin shipping print portfolio orders with bundled zines first. After that, I’ll ship individual zine orders. Print portfolio only orders have already shipped.
