Instant pack film was never my strong suite. Plus it’s egregiously expensive. #instantfilm

Its interesting how our minds will automatically detect a sense of "danger" upon seeing non-symmetrical shapes. But it hits my dopamine hard. Complete imperfection and a sense of dreadfulness is at home in my work to contrast to a world addicted to sanitization and safety. #fujifilmacros2 #35mm

Theres something about watching busy traffic on a highway I find comforting. Its like a transcendental meditation for a busy mind. Not sure if thats a good analogy but it sounds good to say. #35mm #kodakplusx125 #filmphotography #highwaysurveillance

Geometry was once held sacred by ancient societies. Modern society holds sacred only the insatiable need for endless dopamine hits through cybergasms, usually curated for them. #35mm #ilfordphoto #ilforddelta3200 #sacredgeometry #filmphotography #algorithmiccomplacency

Not sure why I took this shot? Makes the mall feel like this empty cave of retail I guess? #ilforddelta3200 #volusiamall #35mm #deadmalls #minoltamaxxumi7000 #filmphotography

This is a raw scan of the LomoPurple 35mm roll I shot without post production editing. Its so muted and flat that it almost looks expired or sat in a hot car for several days. I believe I shot it at 400 ISO which is indeed my fault for its lack of pungence as it should have been shot at 200. #35mm

Shot on 35mm "LomoPurple" film, this had to be heavily edited to "punch out" the purple which required a lot of manipulation of the Green and Magenta casts. #35mm #nikonf #lomopurple #postproduction
