Created my first NFT! Used litemint which runs on Stellar Lumens (XLM), a cryptocurency that doesn’t use mining but instead it uses a consensus protocol to verify transactions. This makes XLM a greener alternative to some other cryptocurrencies. If you’d like to visit my page, link is in my description! Unfortunately the description got cut off 😭 https://www.instagram.com/p/COtcNQbnZRp/?igshid=zab0gqm0petm

I knew I had to take a picture of this car with my 35mm when I first saw this car. Really happy with how the colors turned out 🌚 https://www.instagram.com/p/COj1JYiH90t/?igshid=1omybqedfushw

When I visit the city, I often have the thought of moving there. I then spend an hour looking for parking and the dream quickly fades 🙃 I think I'll stick to being a tourist there from time to time 🌁 https://www.instagram.com/p/CObcaHhHhDX/?igshid=aqi0arge96cq

I've had quite a few heartbreaking moments while learning to shoot film. Fortunately, this photo is not one of them. I took this one in Alviso, a neighborhood in the Bay Area. Ever since I found it, I've been so drawn to this place, longing to capture it's eerie yet captivating vibe. Unfortunately the first time I came, something went wrong with my camera in the middle of a roll, forcing me to open the back, letting a bunch of light leaks in. The 2nd time, the film snapped from the roll and I lost all the pictures I'd taken. When I finally developed my first successful roll, I was beyond ecstatic. All the mishaps were quite demoralizing at first, to the point that I wanted to give up all together. I'm really glad I persevered and used every set back as a learning opportunity. I guess there are a lot of life lessons in film photography 🎞 Have any of you had any unfortunate issues like this? https://www.instagram.com/p/COZh3W1HgiK/?igshid=bxwcm2fzmlrz

There's something about the color red that makes me stop to see if I should take a picture of it...I blame stop signs 🛑 https://www.instagram.com/p/COV-UMSnCBF/?igshid=1vm4pqub0cvuj

Film has helped me to slow down like nothing else. It encourages me to look around with a patient eye and forces me to be intentional with every shot. I no longer can just look down to see what I capture but instead I have to wait (sometimes days) to see the final result. Not knowing is both exciting and scary and I definitely produced my fair share of less than desirable photos. But when I do find a great picture in the midst, it makes the whole process so worth it and because of that, I will not trade the ensuing joy for the convenience of a digital camera. https://www.instagram.com/p/COPHeQ4L8IA/?igshid=1lfv2pksovtdh
