#nature #photography

A small body of water has white shores on both sides. Tall mountains are seen in the background, with cloudy skies above as well as reflected in the salt pond.

I’m so glad that extra inning games in the MLB playoffs have gone back to the traditional rules, i.e. no runner starting at second base. They should think about doing that all season long!

I hate social media and I hate AI (for creative endeavors) so you can imagine how I feel about the combination of the two

Do you think Trump will declare martial law as the threat of releasing the Epstein files draws closer?

Acorn woodpecker to his mate (probably): "Hey, SoCal Leslie was just here taking a bunch of photos of me! She's pretty quiet but super cool. She's a lot of fun to be around." 😂
