Throwaway photos

Category : Throwaways

Date : April 9, 2021

I have a few photos that I’m going to post as throwaways on here from now on. I’m going to start by posting a few that I found when looking through old folders, as a sort of ‘spring cleaning’. I’m posting them with old blog posts that were also just sitting in my drafts folder, but I’m going to keep the date the same, because most of it is shit I wouldn’t write today. If you’d like to see them use the filter on the right to go to any posts that will have a throwaway gallery in it.

So I thought to myself, “I would save time, if i took the other route”… Then I thought of how stupid that must sound....

Old cameras vs. new ones

Category : Gear

Right now is a very interesting, and fortuitous time to be a part of the photography world. Good equipment can be bought for very low prices. Digital rot is a real thing, and the advancements being made (for me personally) aren’t exciting enough to convince me to hop on board to buy a new camera.
