I’m hanging on for dear life to every good development in my life. Starting to care more about my health and my future. Starting to feel a sense of responsibility again. But I’m also under a tremendous amount of stress and may be a little hard to reach while my life goes in positive but […]
Just a roll of Adox HR-50 I casually shot across a few weeks in May and June this year. I think this was entirely just walking around Cologne. Even once I move back to Leverkusen in a week I’m probably coming back once in a while to see what else the streets here have to […]
Been a while since I posted any photography. Most of my efforts have been going into finishing up my visa, preparing for my move, and getting ready for my first day at work which is tomorrow as of this writing. But I did get some scans back! Only two rolls this time (I’ll schedule the […]

I finally had the money to get two more rolls developed, so I’m sharing that backlog now! These are from a roll of Adox HR50 I shot in Boppard. I’m in a tight spot still and I’m still working on finding employment and getting my visa situation settled. I need all the help I can […]
Before we begin, a quick note: while many bloggers and artists are turning to AI to write their thoughts for them, I take great pride in being able to bring you this tutorial in my own words without the help of GenAI. A donation to my ko-fi is a donation to a real person who […]
