☢️ Apocalypse Photo Assignment 🌌
What started as a kind of a ridiculous child-like self-assignment — “Apocalypse in 7 days? Like really you’re going to take that seriously? What would humanity need from you?” — but much like how it could happen, it turned into something unexpected. After all, little thoughts in a week of mundane like no one’s gonna be playing a lottery like that or care about brands names, or tracking gas prices. Right, how tariff-ically ridiculous this assignment would be fearing something that isn’t even real yet… never happens… 😅

It started with the person hunched over with their phone and cigarette feeling primal — like they’d snap at me for taking a shot, both of us clinging to our vices till the end. But also, maybe we’d miss serene tiredness like that in a public place or be released from locked up material luxury, letting go of handheld things designed to connect us, that sometimes just doesn’t.

The library felt like a quiet rebellion, where knowledge and respect still reign supreme, even if it had no screens. Those no longer manufactured Kodachrome film-like reds in the neon city glow, as gone with Vancouver’s beautifully ‘defective’ purple lights — how it refracts off a fountain that way, knowing it wouldn’t have water.

It reminds me that, even after something bad, there’s always room to be playful — to care about what pizza is and to hold someone’s hand. I started to see evidence of love and unity with more depth, quicker — at least for a week, seeing how people are still connected, even when so much right now can feel like it’s falling apart.

Or maybe I just like Zombies dude, chill! Swipe through to see what will survive me. Which shot gives you the biggest end of day vibes? 🌑📸
