It’s hard to believe the year is about to come to a close. I always say that, cause it always feels this way. There’s something special about the way film scans age when I leave them tucked away in the dropbox folder. I shuffle back through every month or two, letting new impressions arise slowly. Often for moments that once felt insignificant or even embarrassing, an unexpected feeling of fondness comes.
I suppose I am learning something from this practice, of allowing the passage of time to reshape memories. Creating true space is a new practice, and it goes against my neurological instincts. Its one thing I can do now for my inner child, who had both too much space and not enough all at the same time. Part of me might always live in that paradox I guess. Awareness is everything, lol.
I am grateful for my cameras, the XA-2 and the FE that were so graciously passed down to me, and the company they’ve kept me through this insane couple of years. Here’s a few moments from the first half of the final quarter. I’ll be getting the rest back from the lab in a bit.
