Il Diario
Notes from the long summer.
Guides, places, and the making of things.

On choosing a tint
Nine lens colours, and what each one does to the world on the other side of it.

Forty-eight hours on Capri
Two days on a small island, and a frame for every hour between the first ferry and the last glass.

The case for acetate
Why a good frame begins as cotton and wood, and what to look for once it is in your hand.
