Welcome to herr2ck.com

My name is Lucas, and congrats on finding your way into my little corner of the internet. This blog documents my various journeys across the Midwest (and a couple trips abroad) through my architectural photography and research. You can find out more about me and my work on my "About" page, or dive right into my posts:

Use the navbar above or the archive on the right to navigate. You can use the archive to "binge-read" my posts, starting with the first one in June 2024. They are in no particular order, just uploaded when I get around to it. A good place to start for newbies is my "Best Of" page, which features some of my highest-quality articles.

My most recent photos are from - Purdue University & West Lafayette, Indiana 

I am currently working on articles for - Victorian Village (Columbus, Ohio)
