Playing with Light (in the cold)

A few weeks ago I finally purchased my first dslr camera. It’s used but still in great shape and takes really good photos (the evidence is in front of you). When I was younger I was really into 35mm cameras (specifically this one). I would take road trips specifically to take photos. Then, as IContinue reading “Playing with Light (in the cold)”

I drove my truck because myContinue reading “Naturally Translucent (a few photos of snow and trees)”
