Did some hiking in Denver and Boulders. First landscape stuff I’ve made since early 2020. Feels good to get back out, but definitely felt rusty.

Albuquerque, New Mexico seems to have great light pretty much all day long.

Finally, I sent my film for development from a photo road trip to Marfa, Tx, then New Mexico to check Truth & Consequences, Albuquerque, and Bisti Badlands. Here are some #Marfa shots. It was a fun place to casually shoot. #FujiGS645S #MamiyaC330 #TLR #indieFilmLab
