Thanks for the opportunity @izaradz and for the words @isaac_hux!

Unseen photos of @ezracollective at @forwardsbristol 2025. I’m enjoying watching these guys get more successful by the day! Watch them live, if you ever get the chance.

Lederhosen portraits.

Honestly, at this point, I really don’t know what I’m posting next. Anything could happen.

I took this photo at the Mt. Lagazuoi Summit (2778 m). Obviously I was surrounded by beautiful mountains and breathtaking views, but I saw this fella and thought, he looks like Disney’s WALL-E, but Italian. Tell me you can see the resemblance?

I used my #Hasselblad with #kodakektar100 and I think it could be my favourite type of film. The crisp, punchy vividness of the photos, from this roll in particular, are additive!

I would love to be taking more photos like this. @natgeo 👀
