* Every morning when I wake up I think 'This is my last September 27th in Portland' or 'my last September 28th' etc. Soon,those thoughts will be very motivating. As soon as I hit October I am going to be constantly on photowalks again. Portland now being a very finite think in my life is sad, it's frustrating because recently I haven't been on photowalks due to smokageddon or other things, but also really motivating. By the time I leave for Denver my photo galleries will be amazing and will likely blow my old content out of the water.
And, when I get to Denver I'll have new stuff to shoot. Denver will have a different flavor. It might take a while to get into a groove there as no place has a mural or yard art scene white like Portland's. There are so many fairy houses here I don't even stop to look unless it's got a mini handmade BLM sign in the tine fairy yard.
I mean, this is just the side of someone's garage:
I need to reshoot the yard that has zombie hands coming out of the ground holding TV remotes because I cannot find where the frac that picture went.
I know a post a lot of murals and yard art, like the bench of social distancing, but there is a lot I don't even bother shooting here. Portland is a medium sized city so we might not have the most murals, but we do have a mural and yard art scene unlike any other. Finding stuff to shoot in Denver might take more shoe leather. But it'll be nice to be exploring a different vibe.
Due to 'Rona I haven't even been up to Alberta to shoot the Cryptid Zoo.
* Things have been moving forward slowly on the move, but I am getting there. I am not moving until spring at the earliest due to 'Rona, but I have a lot to do. I have a lot of things to get into shape, including me.
* Someone who should absolutely know better posted an obvious fishing email asking if it might be real. Goddam things are rough for people and that makes them vulnerable. Give them a spark of hope and they want to believe it. I just ... omg ... Seeing someone ask if there was any way to find out if an obvious fishing scam might be legit was just hard to read.
