- THE END OF THE WORLD PART ONE.

About a year and a half ago I took a photography class with one of my best friends Michael. The class was a good time, if a bit underwhelming. Not to impune the teaching skills of my professor. The class was online and late start, a challenging combination for any teacher. The class was a fantastic excuse to work creatively with the excellent photographer Michael Kinghorn. 

I did make some good stuff. 

My favorite pictures from this class have changed. 

I shot ten rolls of film in Norway over the winter of 2024. 

Michael calls Goleta "The end of the world" 

I got a small point and shoot in Norway. Lost it over the summer unfortunately. 

It had a crystal date on it. A feature included in a lot of point and shoot cameras. I did not realize until far too many rolls of film deep that I could turn it off. 

It's more noticable in some photos, but I don't hate it. 

 Even though the date is entirely wrong, it does mark the time in my life when  I was taking these pictures.

These two photos were not taken with that particular point and shoot.

Fun Stuff

I find Goleta to be an odd, hot, and empty place. 

It is stunningly beautiful too. 

Everywhere is.
