Hi, new follower here. Someone reblogged one of your photos and I was hooked. I’m more of a fandom blog now but years ago I started this blog for my photography as well.
I really like your work! Also the bit of melancholy in your tag for the abandoned storefront with it not being there now…hit hard. Inspired me to go around my hometown with my new camera and see it through my adult eyes vs the last time I lived here as a teenager.
That is so nice, thanks for the kind words! I am glad it inspired you to start shooting again :) ohh it is kind of sad, I was going through my blog and so many things aren't there anymore.. I haven't really been taking photographs lately either, but I do miss it a lot! I want to take photos again. It makes me so happy when people enjoy these images. I love being able to bring beauty to peoples lives. You should totally take pictures of your hometown! Things can change so much in just a few years. And it would be extra sentimental for you having grew up there. Really appreciate the kind message. :)

Where on the prairies are you from. I grew up in North Dakota, now live in Oregon due to career choices, can't wait to get back on the Prairie!
I am in the Canadian prairies, I hope you can get back to the prairies soon if that's what your heart wants!

Thank you for running this account here, it really lifts my mood to see the prairies on my dash. It's validating knowing someone else finds it as beautiful as I do.
Thank you! I am so glad it lifts your mood. I know how much everyone loves the mountains & oceans, so it definitely makes me feel less alone that you also find the prairies beautiful. They can be a bit bleak because they are so bare, exposed, empty, stark.... But I think it is part of their beauty?

Hello neighbor, I am an artist and I am wondering if it's ok with you if I used any of your photos as a drawing reference? I'd link to you with credit if I did so. Thanks in advance for your time, hope you're having an excellent day.
Hey there! I really appreciate your artistic interest in my photos. Feel free to use them as drawing references, and I'd be delighted to receive credit. Thanks for asking, and I hope your artistic endeavors are going wonderfully. Have a fantastic day! 🩷🩷🩷

I love your photos so much and I laughed SO HARD when like 3 posts deep into scrolling your blog, you mentioned the MCC. Truly a hallmark of my experience of the prairies, my grandma used to offer my cousins homemade underwear she'd created from bathing suits thrifted from the MCC with the endorsement that they "fit well in the gusset". Toodle-oo!
Thank you so much! 😄 Hahahah oh geez, your grandma's homemade underwear story from the MCC is a true gem, and it's funny how those memories are such a hallmark of prairie life. Toodle-oo, and thanks for the laughs!
