365.335 phone’d in
Apologies for not putting more effort into today’s pic. After working 9.5 hours, I went and viewed an apartment I’m thinking of moving to (probably will move to), then went to the grocery store, and by the time I got home, it was time to make dinner. I spotted this nice light on the entryway, …

365.331 Icarus
I’m tired today, and didn’t really want to shoot: work this morning, apartment hunting on the interwebs this afternoon, and quite a bit of random thoughts rushing through my head. So I’ll keep this short. This looks excruciatingly digital to me, and I want to find some way of warming up my pictures without making …
