Petting zoo wholesomeness in Milton, Ont. My friends and I made a mini expedition to Andrew's Scenic Acres to observe the pumpkins, possibly pick apples, and look at the farmer's market. But the petting zoo was the real main attraction, especially the turkeys. When up close, their coos sound very soothing but also strange, they seem like little aliens, reminders of the dinosaurs.

Winter into spring, inside goes to outside. To reflect time and its slow or quick passage, I continue my experiments in infrared photography. Self portraits serve as an accessible way to express emotion. Shots of winter and its grey tones stands out from to the harsh contrast of bright sunlight. Movement and stillness produce different results. 1) the street during snowfall 2) collection of footprints I follow to the store 3) waiting, in bed 4) pausing as I dress 5) my sister in warm weather, looking away 6) me standing in the sun, swaying

Analog snaps from a boat ride along Callao, Peru, which I took with my father in November, 2024. My dad is from the area, and pointed out spots during the trip: where he used to live, what used to be something else, where certain parties and events took place. It was a smooth ride, with the captain taking a moment to explain a bit of the area's history. In the distance, we could see some islands -- further tourist desinations and a former jail. After this, we took a taxi to La Punta, and I ate an entire fish steamed in broth.

Some analog snaps in Kodak Gold during a forest walk in North Bay, Ontario. Being alone in nature and allowing the scenery to compell me to take a photograph is one of my favourite passtimes. Pictures include a timer selfie from the woods, taken while hoping no hikers would walk by.
