This article will follow a slightly different format from my past articles. I won't be critiquing individual shots, because I feel that these shots are best displayed to the reader in a set to get the whole aesthetic. Instead, I'll give some general background info for my shooting in this paragraph, and then I'll let you sit back and enjoy the shots as they were intended.
I took off to Boston specifically to shoot Boston Commons with this film stock by Lomochrome. The color shifts will be obvious, and the film can be shot at a range of ISO. I shot at ISO 100 for this whole roll, and I found that direct sunlight yielded really nice shifts.
This is not a film that I would generally use for portrait work because of the uncanny skin tones, however, it's brilliant for street and landscape work. Feeling like a purist, I opted to shoot the roll with my Leica M6 and most of the shots were shot with either a 35mm f/1.2 or a 50mm f/2, though I did try to stop down when I could for maximum sharpness.
Without further ado, enjoy the shots!

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.
