Lovely rhythm in the composition and pleasing tones. #art

That is wonderfully captured. #art

Does explaining my process (in which I found the spot and waited for 15 minutes for right person) and thoughts (in which I like the juxtaposition of the building replacement, the guy with cell phone in front of phone booth, the color contrast, and the missed connection) make the photo better?

When I came over the ridge and drove along the winding road into the valley, I was completely shocked, uttering "that's amazing," "that's more amazing," "that's even..."

You know, I tried to type "Very nice series." I – in my haste – apparently mistyped it, and it was autocorrected to "Every." Maybe, that works too. In any case, lovely images. :-)

Yeah, large. On the near side of the pool, there are actually a couple people (partly hidden) who are only a few pixels high at full resolution, so... the waterfall, is quite large.

I really like this photo.

dwbliss.bsky.social
Well, looks like our insectoid friend partied a little too hard last night.

If someone described the photo to me, I suspect that I wouldn’t expect to like it, but, in viewing the photo, I find it really quite lovely.

dwbliss.bsky.social
Not sure that’s going to buff out.

It seems to be a state by state fight. I don’t understand it.

dwbliss.bsky.social
Thanks. It is sort of abstract. It is rock that splits into these hexagonal columns.

dwbliss.bsky.social
Beautiful structure and tones.

dwbliss.bsky.social
It’s really quite stunning.

Just found out that, now, I have to get a prescription to get this year's covid #vaccine. How did I slip into the #dumbestTimeline?

Recommendation: Get your covid/flu shots at least 30 days prior to thanksgiving. From experience, campus is a cesspool of viruses when students return.
