Spent an afternoon watching my nieces build rock towers in a creek. Little moments like these are everything.
"No one touch that rock...because it's special" -Kirsten 🤣 I love her

Like... on each subject? Or per author?
She has always been a 2nd mom to me. She is strong and self sufficient. She inspired me to grow and preserve food, stay connected to the natural world, and to always be learning. She educated herself in health to help my grandfather's rheumatoid arthritis. I still need to learn to sew.
She lived in a farming village in Romania until 11 when her town was under threat of being bombed. Her family was forced to migrate to Germany where her parents were from. It was winter and they only had horses and the clothes on their backs. She had 10 younger siblings to help look after.
My grandmother's 95th birthday just passed, this was her 91st. I hoped she would make it this long and she has. She still gardens, bakes, and ferments her foods. Shot on 4x5 Portra 160. A Romanian and German WWII refugee, this incredibly tough woman is a hero. Cont'd

I love how many old wood water towers are scattered throughout Sonoma County. My first home on my own at 19 was one of these converted into an apartment. They were used as water towers between the 1850s and 1930s.

Thank you😊
I'm obsessed with lichens! And moss and fungi. All of it.
Shot on Cinestill 400D pushed to 1600, on Pentax 67 medium format camera.
My friend with her boy just before he passed from kidney failure. She asked me to do a portrait knowing he was not going to live much longer. He was her soul cat 💔
I'm glad I captured such a happy moment with them, rather than the feeling of impending doom. The memory of love.

😂🤣 we're getting lost in translation here. I wish I could edit! I didn't even proofread 🤦♀️ nevertheless it's a lovely word.
I typoed it should be Fernweh. Of course you can't edit posts on here. I just looked it up I don't see Wernweh but I see Fernweh. Didn't know wanderlust is also used!
I was a caretaker for naked mole rats in a laboratory
Green rolling hills with bare winter vineyards and fog draping over them
Fenweh is the German word for wanderlust, and possibly the most beautiful word in the language. My dad's side of the family is from Germany, I grew up listening to my grandparents speak it. It often sounds harsh and sharp, but the word Fenweh is so simple yet mystical.

Stop people pleasing, start tree pleasing.

Sorry I'm late, it was foggy out and I needed to wander.
Another shot from my first roll of Cinestill 400D.

Haha! Cats are creatures of consent. People who like control don't like a creature who won't allow it.
Push it to 3200!
Yes Cinestill is just Kodak movie film with the rem jet layer removed. Same with Cinestill 800T except it is tungsten balanced and particularly good with pushing. I highly recommend trying it out for urban night photography, though I've had a lot of fun with it in daylight as well.
Shot my first roll of Cinestill 400D. I'll post a few sporadically. So far, I like it. But not nearly as much as 800T and not enough to replace Portra for a daylight film. Anyone tried it?

I'm glad all the very sophisticated scientists I make marketing campaigns for can't see me while I'm working. Stoned af, half dressed with a cat in my lap. And you know what? I fucking kill it. Freelance life guys, do it.

The song of the Red Winged Blackbird is one of my favorites. I grew up in a mobile home park with a creek behind it (yes I'm a little bit trailer trash) so it's pure nostalgia and peace for me to hear them just as I did so often as a child playing at that creek.

Very excited to be digging into this on this rainy day. Have you read it?

Beautiful shot
Things that are less parasitic than ICE, part 1. Barnacles! Most people think barnacles parasiticize the organisms they cling to, however they are mostly harmless unless the host is already sick or immune compromised. They also provide microhabitats for smaller organisms and filter water. #nature
