The mist doesn’t just blur the trees—it quiets the mind.
A place where time pauses, water whispers, and the earth holds still.
Not lonely. Just untouched.

Personally, I think the appropriate response is to address the hinge, not burn the house down.

So, burn the house down to fix a squeaky hinge?

Congress just rescinded $1.1B in federal funding for PBS & NPR
💔 Rural, tribal & community stations will lose life‑saving alerts, educational kids’ shows, local reporting This isn’t fiscal conservatism—it’s defunding trusted civic infrastructure.

There will never be another band like Rush.🤟😌 Neil, Geddy and Alex defined the power of what just 3 musicians can achieve with their combined enormous talent. Peart was, for me, the greatest writer/percussionist ever. This solo shows why he was The professor.☺️

Not all gargoyles are silent protectors.
Some were carved to trap the spirits they once failed to banish—bound in stone, cursed to watch the world forget their names.
In Melbourne’s shadowed corners, they remain. Watching. Waiting. Remembering.

Tucked into the hills, the Pig & Whistle feels like it was plucked straight from the English countryside—complete with Sussex ales, vintage beer signs, and a pint under the gum trees. Doesn't it make you thirsty?

I posted a bnw version of this #infrared image but thought I'd post a faux color version for #Stunday. It's a #longexposure of several minutes. Processing these is always interesting. #photography #landscapephotography #EastCoastKin #clouds #fullspectrum #ir

Naples’ Castel Nuovo—once a royal seat of the Angevins and Aragonese—still guards the harbor with medieval defiance. Its stones have seen popes, poets, and plunderers pass. #Naples #CastelNuovo #History #Italy #Medieval #Architecture

In Tangiers’ old medina, where Phoenicians once traded and spies once lingered, life still flows through sunlit alleys and lavender walls. Centuries pass, but footsteps echo the same paths. #Tangier #Morocco #History #Medina #StreetPhotography

I have been, I spent the day there. Pretty place. The princesses' houses are nice. The people parking near the casino are a bit pretentious. I wasn't there for the race, but seeing the streets from above, you can almost imagine it.

Notre-Dame Basilica of Montreal

Such a beautiful church. We were being ushered out for mass, so I had a clear shot without all the tourists
