Reflecting on the Past, Looking to the Future I had this idea last week after I cut my hair as I thought I kind of looked like my father, but I needed to order a remote shutter switch to be able to take the photo. I received the switch on Saturday, and with that in hand, I took several shots with my father’s college photo. At the end of the shoot I wasn’t too confident in what I took but liked this photo when I began to sort through the shots. A combination of two photos, one over the shoulder and the second the reflection, combined in Affinity, this photo captures my frame of mind this week as I look towards what my future may hold and the impact that my father has had in my upcoming decisions. #52frames_selfportrait #52frames
Sequoia I chose to redo the texture challenge. My first was a bit uninspired and taken to fulfill the challenge. This took the extra challenge of side light into consideration with a much more complex object of a California redwood pine cone. Getting the focus correct was probably the most difficult due to the multiple layers of the cone. It’s something I want to get better at in 2026. Black and white helped to illuminate (literally) the texture of the pine cone. #52frames_redo #52frames
Sally The conch shell makes a return. Shot with my telephoto from about four feet away and a single light source off to the left. Edited the crop and adjusted the levels which has been my go to in these most recent challenges. I found I was relying too much on downloaded LUTs and have tried to go back to basic editing techniques to make a good photo. #52frames_filltheframe #52frames
Snow makes me happy Ever since I can remember, I have always gone on a walk during snowfall. It didn’t matter if I was a little late to everything else; a walk was needed. It is especially nice on days where everyone else is inside and the world is quiet except for the faint sound of the snowflakes accumulating on the ground around you. The way the snow blankets everything in sight, the world is not only silent but pure and clean. Nature has painted her scene. #52frames_nature #52frames
Parkside This challenge reminded me a lot of shooting film because you honestly have no idea what you’ll get. So many of my shots were out of focus, crooked, and of particularly poor quality. What I learned from this challenge is that I can not hold my camera straight to save my life and that I should not go out at dusk to try to take a good photo. I had several shots that probably fulfilled the spirit of this challenge better, but I just didn’t feel comfortable uploading a blurry, heavily edited shot. #52frames_shootfromthehip #52frames

Forgotten The only thing that causes me absolute panic inducing terror is the thought of not existing. The concept of death is one my mind cannot process. It fuels my fear of being alone, of having no one who will remember me. I felt as if this broken headstone communicated that fear perfectly. It’s probably one of the saddest things to see in a cemetery. #52frames_yourworstnightmare #52frames

Look at Me! I went to a Fall Festival event Bluebird Farm Park in Hampton, Virginia this weekend. I had never been and while this event was really geared towards kids and families I got to see a really cool place. They had all sorts of barnyard animals and while in the alpaca barn, this donkey poked his head into the shadows and let out a loud “hee-haw” to let everyone know that he, too, was there. #52frames_shadows #52frames

A Sense of Loss I found this abandoned Wendy’s and thought it to be quite eerie how this booster seat was left outside amongst the overgrown landscape. The building itself was fascinating with all the old signage left inside. A cool reflection shot was my alternative this week, but I felt as if the sense of loss was more resonate with this capture. #52frames_abandoned #52frames
