Hi, I’m Taryn…

…and I’ve been having a strange time.

I’m an autistic person with ADHD recovering from trauma that made itself known in February 2023.

I like to draw, although sometimes I have trouble with it. I’ve learned that’s related to the trauma. I’ll keep trying.

I picked up my camera again after putting it away when my son was born. I’m using it to help me see with less fear.

I’m not sure where I’m going. For now I’ll take my time.

My problems seem trivial when I’m in the forest. When I’m lost in a numinous experience, watching the light filtering through the leaves, I don’t feel broken or alone. I’m just another animal high up on the hill, a part of a greater whole.

But I’m a very nerdy animal and I’m going to take a lot of photographs.

  1. @tarale one good thing about travel is seeing animals in the human, and not just people you're accustomed too. You start seeing us for what we are, but some people think it's just the foreigners. If you're seeing us for what we are without all that travel that's great IMO
