If you’re a regular reader of this here blog, you’ve possibly noticed I’ve been posting a relentless amount of images of busted cars (this car isn’t busted, per se, but is an old vehicle nonetheless). I’m not entirely sure why I’ve been drawn to capturing these images, but the urge remains. It’s a sign of the times, as my buddy Don’t Fret might say. Sure, they are an easy subject but that’s kind of the fun of it.

Two subjects have emerged from this space as likely subjects for potential future photo zine projects:

• Busted Cars (self explanatory)

• Mr Peepers (pets looking out windows)

I’ve been printing at the studio and loving it. While it’s still very much a time-consuming (and expensive!) learning process, I aim to get some personal zine projects in the works in the coming weeks and this gets me excited, even if the subject matter is as simple as this.

Hit the tag link below if you wanna check out the other “busted car” posts and drop a comment below if you have any interest in purchasing zine from me in the future. I’d love to know if I should print one copy or maybe two copies. 😛
