A 2023 Montage: 12 Photos Per Month

Hello. It's *ahem*, been a while. Happy New Year(s)!

The above image is a chronological montage of photos I took in 2023. The top row is January, the next is February and so on.

I've made these images at the start of January every year* going back to 2008. Previous entries can be found under the #montage tag.

2023 then? Bitty. Spotty. Sloppy. Wishy and/or washy. Those are the words that come to mind. I may or may not go into the reasons (I may or may not actually know the reasons) but, for now, I'm feeling fairly motivated to correct course.

Noteworthy things:

I turned 40. Weird.
Thea turned 1 (and is now closing in on 2)! It very much feels like we have 4 people in the house now, rather than 3 + a baby.
I made a rollerblading video called Content.
I'm so invested in rollerblading that I attended a massive event in Eindhoven with a bunch of other skaterdads. We even made a little edit.
I failed at all of my modest reading, writing and drawing goals for the year.

Anyway. If you read this... hello! It's nice to see you. As always, I intend to write here more often in the coming year.

Always forwards, never backwards x

* I missed 2022 for no particular reason and I plan on retroactively fixing it.
