Hey have you possibly thought about, mental health permitting, purchasing or obtaining a firearm which is your legal right as an American? Now would be a great time to, aha, pull the trigger on that! Ohohoh!!! No but seriously do think about it. You don't need anything too fancy.

My first attempt at architectural photography. I went to the Des Moines art museum, which is fairly easy to work with from a geometry/spatial perspective. What do yall think? Shot on iPhone 16 pro as always

I used my microscope lens and attached it to my 5x telephoto lens on my iPhone 16 Pro—which isn’t really designed to work with the 5x lens. The result was pretty epic, though the 5x photo required a decent amount of cleanup work. Still, this lens allows me to travel places I’m too big to go 🫡

Close up of possibly Echinocystis lobata, this photo shows the suspended core at the heart of an otherwise hollow fruit. The tendrils arc outward like filamentous anchors, holding the central structure in a perfect radial tension. Backlit with acryllic LED lamp. Shot on iPhone 16 Pro as always lol

I landed my first big boy YouTuber collab with Call of Duty: Mobile. Working with these guys was amazing, I was given a lot of creative freedom. I scripted, filmed and edited both videos on my own. I really hope this opens more doors!

More underwater shots no one asked for. Took these in shallow water at a beach in Storm Lake, IA. Locked my phone in macro mode, stuck it upside down under the surface, took a bunch of shots and picked the ones that looked the best! As always, more work here instagram.com/strangelumens

I saw this lettering on my desk and decided to zoom closer and closer, to the point where I couldn’t even recognize where I was looking. Everything can reveal an entirely new world if you look close enough. 🫡 look with me: instagram.com/strangelumens
