VISUAL Diary
An attempt to subvert social media and stay in touch with those around me. Remember when Instagram was for sharing photos?

Scale
Being out on the glacier is totally hard to comprehend and messes with your sense of scale on a level that is only really possible to understand when you are actually in it. I tried to create an understanding of this scale here by stretching the frame to include my friends hiking around the ridge, as well as the climbers in the background, and the climbers in the middle with the rope leading to a climber not visible in the crevasse below.

Saturday Night
The fact that I can take this picture handheld, in the middle of a Saturday night is something that I will never get over. When I was learning how to be a photographer, a shot like this would have required at least 1600 ISO or a tripod and neither would have been easy to come by when casually walking out of an art show.

Fun with Framing
I’ve been looking at this frame for a long time, there is a table at my favourite coffee shop that looks right down this way. I finally got the light I wanted and luckily, Hanna was working in her normal spot in the space, so I was able to snap the above shot. This is one of the many photos I have been taking lately that really shines at the largest viewable size, and unfortunately doesn’t feel too compelling on an phone screen.
