I guess I need to add that if you post other people's photos without giving them credit and/or getting approval, I will block you.
Reminder: if I haven't followed back or have unfollowed you, it's probably because
your timeline has few posts or mostly retweets
you're following thousands of accounts
you're selling something or asking for money
your timeline is full of things I'm not interested in
you post images without ALT text

Third in a series of #StunDay proof that of our 8 dogs, Bebo was the one with the exceptionally stunning talent for finding me very scenic shots to take, this time with an assist from Sniff.

Look but don't touch. I am not sure what this plant is. I don't think it is a stinging nettle, but it doesn't look like it wants to cuddle. #photography #plants #nature

Little Stormzy had his first trip out into the "real world".

Testing him out to see if he'll be OK for adoptions.

I have finally had to accept that I have reached an age where I no longer have the patience (forbearance? grace? desire? concentration? all of them?) to read books over 400 pages full of meandering chunks or books of any size about the angst of being a 20-30 something.

First I noticed that the orange maples leaves were zig-zagging through the pines, then I noticed the zig-zag was in the reflection too.
