Lately I’ve been very anxious. I think it’s about moving, plunging and buying a camera and transitioning to a new engagement and feeling like I don’t own it yet.
Moving has been stressful mostly because of my damn landlord’s fixation on petty things. Just thinking of it makes my blood boil.
I love my new camera (so crisp even at a high ISO!) and I’m halfway through...
