    That’s a really cool shot! I got a landscape that I took printed and hung it over my desk so I can see it all the time. It’s really incredible to be admiring it and think “I took that.” It just hits different when it’s not on a screen.

    For anyone else interested in doing this, Walmart does 24x36 prints for like 20 bucks and frames can be had for around 20 at IKEA or usually a dollar or less if you can find one at Goodwill. Doesn’t have to be super expensive. And if that is even too much for you, someone in one of my groups gets their photos printed at the ‘regular’ size (3x5 I think?) and it’s still really cool to have something to hold in your hand and they’re much much cheaper at that size!









  • I find that there’s a lot of overlap between people who like engines, clocks, and guns. They’re all machines with a concrete goal, harnessing an incredible force in a very controlled way, through precise, complex mechanisms and allow near complete freedom on how exactly you achieve that goal. There’s a beauty to it that’s hard to find anywhere else.
