Photography. I love the work of artists such as William Eggleston and Martin Parr but I've also been getting into self-portraiture of late.

Getting into and staying in shape, is that a hobby?

"I heard the many voices
Speaking to me from the depths below
This ancient wound
This catacomb
Beneath the whited snow
Come to me, come to me, come to me
Come and drink of me
Or turn away, turn away, turn away
And never more think of me
Carry me
Carry me away"
ABOUT ME
Hello, I suffer from social anxiety and probably a number of other related problems. Feel free to say hi, I'm not actually that scary (honest).
Sorry if I stopped by your page and didn't say hello.
