I still receive a lot of comments asking why I don’t do reload videos as much anymore. Hopefully this explains everything!
Got some cool macros of ice (the water-based non-immigration enforcement kind). With the right toning, looks very cosmic in nature.

So much of life has happened in this room alone. I got famous in this room. All of my best content was filmed in here. Kind of breaks my heart having to say goodbye. 💔

Found this quartz crystal at hobby lobby a while back for some at home photo experiments. Refraction is interesting enough on organic forms, but through faceted quartz it becomes controlled interference. Each face acts as its own micro-lens, splitting light into repeating geometric harmonics.

On my walk today, I found what effectively looked like a giant plant ball sack. I tore out a small hole in the suspiciously scrotum like shell and peered inside with my iPhone lens, revealing this awesome central core suspended by tendrils.

Banjo Tooie was one of my all time favorite 64 titles along with Donkey Kong 64. I remade Pine Grove outside of Witchy World here in Unreal 4 way back in 2015. Never got to fully finish it as the project became corrupted and inaccessible. I still think about trying again from time to time…

Some more marble macros I took yesterday, just from the phone. What I hate about the iPhone is the severe blurry fringing that goes on. Won’t be a problem once I can save up for a nice lens #photography #macro #shotoniphone

A bit of HDR practice — blending multiple exposures (dark, bright, and everything between) into one balanced photo where a single shot couldn’t capture the full range of light. #photography #hdr #hdrmerge #EOSR6mk2

I’m starting real estate photography, which allowed me to upgrade to a serious camera rig. I was able to do a lot with just an iPhone, but the ability for a long exposures alone is going to be a game changer. #canon #EOSR6Mk2 #photography
