You may notice that my photography leans towards outdoors settings. The gardens and woods around the condo. I don’t have to travel far for that, something I appreciate. My love of nature contrasts with my lifelong work in tech. Nature renews itself each year in seasons of dormancy and growth. Tech expands in capitalist cycles of boom and bust. Upgrades, feature expansion fighting against inevitable phaseout. One remote to rule them all becomes just another malfunctioning bar of uselessness in the box of forgotten junk. It was fun while it lasted.
