I’ve been thinking a lot during this quarantine about the kinda of images I want to make during this time. Moving home and now being here for over a month, not much has changed physically. Yeah people are outside a lot at the local park next to my house and there are empty school parking lots as if students are on summer break. I smirk as I remember hearing college students roar “Spring break forever” at a bar in Muncie.

I always see images around town, but I never take them. I always think “oh the lighting is great”, but then I never make an image. I’m hoping that during this time, I’ll just really dive back into photography, and my feelings and emotions. I’ve found myself a little detached from who I once was in the last year or so. I want to feel something again.

I’ve thought about doing some fine art stuff. So here’s my first attempt… a self portrait. Yeah It’s cliché, maybe. But its got me thinking on doing a series of how I want people to see me- how I want the world to see me. More images and thoughts to come.
