Mate of mine enjoys sitting in the chook pen and resting the mind while the chickens hang out on his lap.
There are some genuinely good people in this world. Lucky to to know a handful of them.

I often surprise myself with optimism :)
Usually a clear indication that I don't understand what is happening around me.
Why does everyone smell like garlic?
PSA to folks in Melbourne.
Bakemono is open again! And it's every bit as good as it ever was. I would post a pic but I already ate everything.

You're regular reminder that people who want your photography for free are making a choice.
This editor gets paid to deliver a magazine, but wants me to work for free and make their life easier.
What "suggestions" do you think I should offer them?

Remarkable evening :)
Just discovered that Americans refer to huajiao as "peppercorns" instead of "flower pepper" and it's no wonder humans just can't get along.
It's quiet. It arrives in silence without even a whisper. It blankets the landscape and makes everything else more quiet too. It muffles noise and hides the mess beneath. It's peaceful. Calm. Pretty. Precious. Ephemeral. It's millions and billions of little tiny pieces that amount to something really really amazing.
Snow makes me happy.

Sticky paws. Sugar coma. Great for hugs, not so great for filing.
Just incredible the difference in energy when working with good clients.
Ten minute chat on the phone and I feel like anything is possible. Feels like we're on the same team. The future is not quite where I expected to be heading, but am super glad to have great people around me in the journey.

Adding a retro camera to mix up your feed a little.

I'm sorry how I suddenly made your situation about my situation! Again!
We walk a similar path don't we.
It's a new awakening for me that even with all the good fortune and privilege I have now, I'm still susceptible to falling into survival mode. We are just so accustomed to coping with bollocks that we don't realize we're even doing it sometimes.
I accidentally used the wrong combination of fingers on my trackpad... and MacOS suddenly showed me thumbnails of every app and window and project and unfinished to-do item and I'm just gonna hide under a blanket for the rest of the day.

Thankyou Bob, appreciate you saying so. It's been a hugely rewarding experience for me to indulge in the macro world.

You wanted to say this because I wanted to hear it. Thankyou.
Gathering your photos onto a website and experimenting with the layout and experience is really worthwhile as a photographer.
Social media is less so. The way your work appears on someone else's app is totally out of your control. Not to mention the algorithms in play. The constraints are artificial, and unrewarding.
Having your own website is an excellent way to express yourself, and it's unimpeded by pathological billionaires.

I remember when I first got started in photography, and I knew my photos were ok but not brilliant.
But I also knew my design and web skills were above par, so I could do a half decent job of presenting my work to look its best. I've gotten better at photography over the years, but still have to say that curating and presenting are actually more important than capturing.
Style matters.
