Well, my goodness it's July. That's all I'm going to say about it for now. I hope you are finding ways to enjoy the summer, though I'm sure it looks nothing like you planned.

I will admit, I have no idea "what kind" of post this is. But I haven't done a photography related post in a long, long while so. . .that's where I'm starting. I didn't do much at all with photography during quarantine like I wanted. Maybe you had the same feeling "I'm going to be so creative with all this extra time!"



However. I did explore a new aspect of photography in all my time at home: aspect ratio. Aspect ratio is, basically, the width to height difference of your photo. For example, this photo below is shot in 16:9


Whereas, these photos below are shot in 1:1 (a perfect square). I have been shooting 1:1 since April, with few exceptions. It has opened up a whole new world. It has forced me to be more intentional with what I want in the photograph and what I want out of a photograph. It's been so so fun to experiment with and an extra creative challenge.

And! I've discovered that I really love shooting squares.
