Iceland: Film – Gulfoss and Geysir
It took several years, I’ll be honest, but I finally got my film from my Iceland 2019 trip developed this month as a birthday present. I’m certain they went through a great degree of degrading, but they are mine and they are precious to me. One of the biggest worries for me on this trip […]
Ferns and fittonias pt. II
The sun looked really nice dappled all over the ferns, so I took some photos of them in their new pot. I like these long rectangular pots for now, but I’m quickly running out of space to put everything. The dieffenbachia won’t stop growing, which is a good problem to have, isn’t it? My mom […]
