First week in the new apartment with my new wife was very busy, as you might imagine… Alhamdulillah. But I did make some time to shoot, with the phone, in the about 20 or so minutes I had (maybe 18 on Wednesday, but not all together… maybe 10 minutes or 15 around 3:15pm, and another …

7/52-38 Busy, Moving
