  • A Photo An Hour (Kinda)

    A Photo An Hour (Kinda)

    The prompt for this blog post was to take one photo, each hour of the day for twelve hours. The inspiration was to capture these images with Dave’s Canon, with the intent of becoming more familiar with his camera.

    Neither intent or purpose made it. I took photos throughout the day with my iPhone, because I have no clue where the Canon decided to hibernate. Also, because I chose Saturday, the day we both are at Tocororo, it was busy as hell and I did not have a spare moment for every hour we were there.

    An attempt was made. Behold:

    Bright eyed & bushy tailed in Eastern Market, kicking off the workday with fresh flowers for the tables at Tocororo, and loads caffeine.

    The market was a little on the empty side, and we nabbed a great parking spot. We therefore assumed that we wouldn’t be a very busy day. We were wrong.

    I failed to take a picture an hour, however, I did manage to get some foodie + drink pics for Toco’s socials. A Cajun chicken thigh sammie, which is a new menu item. And rum, because rum bar (also, the box is pretty).

    Almost end-of-shift boop w/the Toco kids!

    I finished up a little earlier than Dave, so I sat at the bar noodling out some ideas for upcoming posts when a wild Nekita appeared!

    Nekita works at Lagerhaus No. 5, a brewery we frequent in the market. She is also a fellow neurodivergent-crafty kid, and one of the besties.

    Dave and I then decided to grab a post-work drink at Detroit City Distillery, also located in Eastern Market. They are still decked out for the holidays, so it is festive af in there.

    We then headed up to Ferndale to celebrate the birth of another bestie, Aaron! I also failed to take a photo of said kid. Instead, enjoy this photo of Dave, Paige, Dwayne, Nick, et moi.

    I have high hopes of doing a series of these posts, hopefully taking photos once per hour and not at random, and with the intent of using all of our cameras. That being said, stay tuned! Hopefully I won’t fuck it up next round!

    That’s all folks, see ya next post!
