## Captain’s Log

Seasons Peteings! Whatever you’re into over the next few days, be it Yuletide, Queermas, Christmas, fighting with family or resting with friends I hope you have fun.

I’ve posted a [year-in-review blog post on my photography portfolio site](https://petecarr.net/2023-highlights/) and a [Reel to Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C1KqH5esHdp/?utm%5Fsource=ig%5Fweb%5Fcopy%5Flink&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==), if that’s more your thing.

Thank you for your support in 2023\. I’m going to take a couple of weeks off to rest and I’ll see you in 2024.
