## Resource

Dial and Aperture is back! After a quick two-week break, Nacho and Morgan are catching up on life, travel, and gear. This week, Nacho recaps his Mexican honeymoon, a nerve-wracking close call with his Doxa, and his latest dive into underwater photography. Meanwhile, Morgan’s been keeping it low-key; prepping for upcoming travel and logging serious hours at the tattoo studio, working on his full leg sleeve. Stick around for Snapshots, featuring two must-read books: a memoir of an international fugitive’s life in India, and a deep dive into Japanese mythology.
