It was a pleasure and a great experience to be invited to MCM Comic Con London, on the press run of “Lucid The Dreamwalker” last weekend. I met the creator, Oraine Johnson in 2017 at the AfroFlux FluxCon, where there was a screening and panel about this project. Seeing where it is today, is amazing,…

I’ve worked with individuals who have these extremely great ideas,…
Of course – always happy to teach what I know. We can go through some of the basic skills needed but it ultimately comes down to what you like to see through the vision finder – what would you want to spend 3 to 6 hours photographing and not get bored by, within the first…
