Can Can
Canyon is very cuddly, and he's a heavy boy. At the vet she, the vet, kept calling him "orange guy." My dad and I have altered some songs to be about Can ("The Candy Man" from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and "The Can Can" although I'm not entirely sure if that's the name of the latter song). "The Candy Man" has turned into "The Canyon Man," and we just say Canyon/Can Can to the tune of "The Can Can" since that is one of our nicknames for him. If you couldn't tell he's also very photogenic.
Da
I've already talked about what my dad is like and who he is to me in a previous page, so I'm going to take this opportunity to talk about the process for creating these images/what home life is like right now because of COVID-19. The first two pictures in this set were shot in reverse order because the lighting looked really harsh in the now black and white image, so that's why he has the same expression in both. The hands and portraits in this set were shot on two different days because work was stressing my dad out the first day, and I figured it's hard to smile kindly when you're stressed about something (I think the work-life balance is harder right now because he has to do computer work here, and he doesn't have an actual office at home to physically separate the two computers he has here now). Right now I think that Lightroom isn't giving me the editing quality that I'm used to from Photoshop (that of course could be related to my skill level) because I don't like how grainy the photos get. The quality could also be unsatisfactory because I haven't been showing as much care about natural vs. artificial lighting as I did last year.
Me, Myself, and I
I have basically the same facial expression in each portrait because those were the only pictures I took that I was happy enough with to edit (it's hard taking a selfie with a normal camera). For as long as I can remember I have been putting puzzles together at my grandmas' every time we visit, and since I wasn't able to go there over springbreak my dad and I bought a Peanuts puzzle online. It's hard to describe your personality without sounding narcissistic and self absorbed to yourself, and I feel like I talk about the same interests every time I'm asked to. I have probably spent the shortest amount of time with a normal length book than I have in a while (I default to devices for entertainment most of the time). It probably helps that I don't have much else to do than read.
