~ photos, thoughts, cameras, and contemplation ~ 

I started The Rusty Ruin Journal in August 2024. Since then, I’ve posted hundreds of photos and written about camera gear, photo editing, technique, philosophy, culture, artificial intelligence, the web, technology, and more. I continue to post mostly photography related stuff, but I don’t restrict myself when I have other things to say. 

Posts that represent some of my themes and interests: rubble and ruin, sunrise contemplations, beauty in everyday things, our belief systems, thoughts about our future, megapixels and marketing.
