Stockholm in November

For my (now) fiancé's birthday, I surprised him with plane tickets to Sweden.

Lomography 85mm Petzval Lens

A couple of weeks ago, the opportunity came up to purchase a lens I had wanted for a really long time at a massive discount (thanks to my job): the Lomography 85mm f2.2 Petzval lens. The newly designed Petzval lens was released in 2013, funded by a Kickstarter campaign, and is based on an Austrian lens which originally came out in 1840.

Peach Club

For Parallel's fifth issue, I wanted to interview a local riot grrrl punk feminist band, Peach Club. I met up with them on a chilly, icy day at a local park and got some photographs, before heading into a nearby diner to conduct the interview.
