Lately I’ve been reflecting on why photography hasn’t found the same rhythm in the NFT world as other mediums. Not from resistance, but from curiosity. Curiosity for the craft, for the slowness it demands, and for the space it holds. Photography is ancient in its instinct. It is the eye noticing light before thought arrives. It is the act of witnessing. Not creating from nothing, but listening to what is already there. Unlike code or canvas, a photograph does not invent. It reveals. That difference, which doesn’t make it better or worse, however matters. Especially for the understand of the medium. In the digital world, where novelty is currency and speed is celebrated, photography moves at the pace of slow footsteps. Of long walks. Of waiting in the cold for clouds to part or stars to align. In a space where much is designed to signal, to disrupt, to grow fast, photography simply asks to be felt. And that kind of softness does not always fit into systems built on momentum and marketing. There is also a quiet misunderstanding that photography is immediate. That because it can be done quickly, it must be easy. But the camera is one of the smallest parts of the process. What comes before and after are often what gives the image its weight. In landscape photography : The idea. The decision to go. The willingness to endure discomfort. The sense of awe. The discipline to return again and again with no guarantee of reward. The image is just the trace left behind. In my own work, every piece holds the imprint of that pursuit. The silence of glaciers. The vertigo of altitude. The tension between isolation and wonder. The play between safety and risk. Between life and death. These are not things you create on a whim or in response to trends. They are part of a personal mythology. And I have learned that not everyone will feel that. I don’t believe photography is behind. I believe it’s timeless. And timelessness does not follow timelines. It is not about hype, supply, speed or scale. It is about depth. So maybe it is not that photography does not belong here. Maybe it is here to remind us to slow down and look deeper. And in this diverse ecosystem, not everyone is willing to do that. And that’s okay too. 🙏🏻

Why don’t I see my Roost in my Coinbase wallet? Not sure what I need to do here - I don’t see a ‘hidden assets’ tab to unveil anything either. Thanks.

More details about the Blue Hour Adventures collector's package, dropping this Monday, March 25th, 4pm ET. This drop is sold as a package. The package includes: 1. A physical copie of children's book & a coin. 2. 6X9 signed fine art print of ''Past Resonance'' 3. 1 NFT edition of ''Past Resonance'' (ERC-1155) 4. 1 NFT edition of the cover of the book, used to claim all physicals. (ERC-721) The max supply is 777. The price will include all elements above + international shipping. Price TBD. Why selling this as a package? My intention for this drop is to offer the full experience and story to the child and the adult. All elements are interconnected. A book for the children to get inspired and dream, a physical print to frame and hang in their bedroom, and 2 NFTs to put in their vault. Potentially their first intro to NFTs? The stories and the art we grow up with oftentimes have a strong influence our preferences, aspirations and inspirations. I hope that both the book and my art can inspire your little ones and yourself.
