  • leftovers

    There are always photos that don’t make the final edit for the zine, the leftovers. I had three film shots, all shot on Kodak TriX 400, that were in serious consideration, but I just couldn’t figure out what to match them with on a facing page. Going to post them here and comment about why…

  • social media

    Or should I have titled this, antisocial media, doesn’t matter. Made a post on my instagram this morning that I will only be posting zine updates there from now on, no regular photography. A part of me wishes I had never come back to IG, but then I see that I would have maybe never…

    Been sitting with these spreads/facing pages for a few days. It feels like I’m done with zine #7. Maybe next week sometime. Cheers!

  • so it goes

    I was going to do a post solely dedicated to my film experiment, but I decided that a quick summation would suffice. I will not be shooting much if any film going forward so it doesn’t really matter that much. There were four 400 speed films and the one I liked the best was the…

  • on life support

    Yes, a film post. Took the three rolls of black and white film to be processed, all different brands of 400 film, to see if I had a preference, hoping I like the cheapest one the best. Don’t have them back yet, not only does it cost twice as much per roll for b&w over…

  • say something!

    I have been pondering this post since yesterday. I was going to be kind and understanding in my tone, but that has now shifted to old and cranky, so now you get the real deal on this end. The “subscription list” on the zine went up to twenty four this issue. Nineteen were mailed at…

  • gear

    I usually have no interest in posts about camera gear, yet here I am adding to the list of boring gear posts. I don’t really think it matters much what camera or lenses you use, as long as you create interesting work. There is some wonderful work being done with phones, but I need something…

  • words

    I struggle with words and their use in this zine. And, yes, I see the irony of those “words” in the midst of writing and posting this today. I am generally not an enthusiastic blogger, which may be glaringly obvious to anyone checking in on this site. So the concept for the next zine issue,…

  • kill the guru?

    There is a Buddhist thing saying if you meet the Buddha on the path, kill him, or something like that. All that says is that if you really want to figure something out that is meaningful to your journey/process, you’ve got to search inside yourself and figure it out from the inside out, not from…
