Attempt to capture #Comet C/2025 A6 (Lemmon) did not work as intended this week, but despite being in the middle of the city, managed this #Vertical shot of the Milky Way and some stray meteorites.

All the lakes! Missing pictures of all the wine we got.

Pictures I have been working on for #UsaMamoWeek - Day 4 - Free Day. I got book called "Colorstrology" for fun. I noticed that both Usagi's and Mamoru's birthdays are different shades of Orange. More photos and links to the book: www.tumblr.com/random-mailb...

Pictures I have been working on for #UsaMamoWeek - Day 3 - Flowers. PNW Alpine Flowers are very similar to ones you can find around June / July in Hokkaido. You can see the rest on Tumblr: www.tumblr.com/random-mailb...

Took these during a neighborhood walk in between rainy days.

Oh yea! Should have tagged @mochibuni.bsky.social too 😘
Working on a prompt for #Usamamoweek - @tinacentury.bsky.social @iiya.bsky.social - you should join me!

Yes, I was crawling around on the path while my husband did his run this morning. And I got an enthusiastic thumbs up from passers-by 😁
This is what this filter looks like
This filer is also a cool way to create a portal look - that's my husband doing his training in the middle

Here are the same (almost, same bunch) daisies, but you can see how the pictures would look as you get progressively less zoomed in.

Last post in the #funwithfilters (you should be able to use this tag to see all the posts) - Swirl. The other filters I have are less fun / less suited to outdoor photography. Swirl filter creates a frame around the subject, pulling in dominant colors.

Inspired by Doug Clement's #vancouverisland #photography , we spent an afternoon at Botanical Beach in Port Renfrew this past weekend. Definitely want to come back at lower tide - worth the drive and the hike #scapes #Seaanemone #tidepools
My husband helped me make this using an inexpensive UV filter he got on Amazon and 3M dichroic film
Next up in my series of #funwithfilters (you should be able to use this tag to see all the posts) - Dichroic film filter. I prefer physical effects vs adding something like this afterwards, since you lose some of the inconsistency due to lighting conditions

Looking up to the sky, inspired by "Arrietty" from #studioghibli

#throwback to about this time last year when we did a Scenic flight with Sea-to-Sky Air in #Squamish

Here is what it looks like. One thing that's fun to try is using dry-erase markers to color in some of the facets - that creates more of a rainbow look, as long as the center stays clear.
One thing to be careful with this one - direction of light. It is very easy to blow out the entire image regardless of your settings even with a lens hood on.
