>>4051953Thank you, I try.
>>4051984I have been fortunate that most of my girlfriends were terrified of cameras, and the current girlfriend has few pictures I've done of her this one
>>4051926 being one of them. They all supported by hobby though even when I was down, I was stuck in a creativity fog of depression and the current girlfriend called me a bitch for having the kind of equipment I have and not doing anything with it and that made me get out there and shoot again.
The hardest thing you will all experience when you get older as photographers is losing family members you cared about. I lost my brother to Stage 4 glioblastoma which is basically a fancy way of terminal brain cancer. I knew I had to go on a shooting spree and I did, the pictures aren't hard to look at but maybe I handle death differently because of being on the spectrum. This is one of the last pictures I shot of him before he was bed ridden, it was done on my RB67 with a 90 Sekor and Polaroid back with FP3200.
Photography is a life-long introspection of understanding our relationship between geometry and light.
