Been a while since I rapped at ya… These are from last fall, because I have once again let my backlog get way ahead of me… there are so many things from this year that I haven’t posted. Porto I didn’t post yet because it’s hard to edit down to something coherent and postable, but here I am posting anyway. Probably will be 2-3 posts? I’m trying.
This was kind of my half of our big trip last year; we try to go on a trip in the fall, and 22/23 were both europe, with Sun and Bass, a music festival, for the first week, and the second week usually somewhere else: previously Florence. I already posted the Sun n Bass photos a while back, but never got around to these, mostly because it’s a lot to get through and I always had a quick win that I could post and get on with things, and then… a lot of other things happened.
The first thing that happened is that I got serious about finishing San Pablo. I made a final edit, printed work prints, stared at them for two months, and finally sequenced them in what I’ve been calling ‘vibe order’. Then I put them in a really simply laid out photo book and had that printed through Blurb.
Then I decided for this fall, to take a cross country motorcycle trip instead of flying to Europe. That took a couple of months to prepare for, and a bunch of stuff that would normally live on here ended up over there. I may copy those posts over, or I may make a static site for it, not sure. I need to stop sending buttondown $30/mo to not send emails, for sure though.
I did that, published a newsletter post every day I was out, and then when I got back re-formatted everything into a magazine that I still need to to quite a bit of work to. I think I don’t like the way I designed it at all, and I might make it a small landscape book instead. Anyway.
Enough words for now. More Porto next time.
