Hi, and welcome!
I have two BlueSky accounts.
This one is for my photos (and others') and other nice things.

The other account, @infinite8horizon2.bsky.social, is for politics and not-so-nice things. Choose wisely, and check the auto-complete.

Bio is the same (it's me!), link in profile.
Enjoy.

Driving to Rotterdam for work today, hoping for a glorious sunrise you so often hear commuters talk about. So, I got this 🤣. And traffic jams. Which were of use. Actually. So I could take these pictures 😇.

Thunderstorm over Mt. Gravatt this evening

Luckily it's still #Stunday because this was stunning.
Last shot is lit by lightning, not daylight!
Last three are video frame grabs, so quality is low.

Good Morning!
Not a sunrise, for a change, but clouds at zenith lit by dawn light. A reminder to look up in wonder.

No, I did not go to Iceland and used a drone on the beach. This is the roof of my car 😄.

Native boobook

These count in #BlueSkyArtShow #small because they are Australia's smallest owl.

There's a reason you don't ever see all of the right-hand trees... They're huge...
