Reference Photo, Late 2025
This is a reference photo that I took to get across a pose I wanted someone to hold. It was as close an approximation I could get to the idea I had in mind, which I’ve spoken about before but … Continue reading

Self-portrait, Late 2025
This was taken on the drive home from Bathurst. I wanted to get a dramatic, moody photo of myself, and the best one I got was with my phone which I took as reference. This is the next best one. … Continue reading

Face at an Edge
I thought I’d have more time to write today but I don’t, and that’s okay. I’m sitting down and I’m taking it easy right now. Just relaxing. I took this photo a few weeks ago, finding myself interested in the … Continue reading

Shadowed Sight
Another practise photo that turned out well. At least, I think it turned out well. You could probably argue that this image speaks to a loss of sense of identity we might try to protect ourselves from. A loss of … Continue reading

From the Bottom
So this is not a good photo, but I like it anyway. Or rather, I like what it could be. This was taken solely to see if I could do it. I had to bend backward to get the photo, … Continue reading
