Depends on your drawing style but I really like my new fude nib for drawing (variable line width depending on the angle of the pen).

Some things I found on the ground this week. #photography #streetphotography #beachphotography #seenwhilewalking #thingsIfindontheground

Ladybird beetles clustered on a piece of driftwood on the beach

A slightly rusty muffler from a car on the edge of a sidewalk, with fallen leaves, grass and some plants around it.

A dead fish on the beach. It's fairly large and looks to be some kind of salmonid.

If I wasn't pretending to be an octopus online I'd probably pretend to be an owl. 🦉

Some things I found on the ground last week. #thingsIfindontheground #seenwhilewalking #photography

A broken plastic toy bee on the pavement

A red maple leaf with yellow spots on the sidewalk

A spider decoration with glowing red eyes in someone's front garden. It's pretty scary.

A white tarp with Donald Trump's face painted on it with a gaping mouth you try to throw frisbees into

Some of them could have been better promoted outside the expat community I think. I only knew about the Toronto protest because I knew about the US ones and googled to see if there was something local.

That's what happens when young people have too much unstructured free time.

I have a theory that people all over the world bought frog suits, which is why all the frogs everywhere, but there was one magic unicorn that appeared at all the protests.

More from today's #NoTyrants protest by the US Consulate in Toronto. #frogsacrosstheworld #frogstogetherstrong #🐸 #nokings

Protesters in frog costumes. One is wearing a US flag as a cape and is holding a sign that says "My immigrant grandfather was killed fighting fascists in (obscured) so that I would bow to NO KING. NO TYRANT."

A sign at No Tyrants Toronto protest mocking Trump as a king with a bar of gold around his neck saying "I LIKE GOLD!". Also has a smaller sign attached that reads "election truth alliance.org"

Someone in a pink inflatable axolotl costume raising their arms. Beside them is a sign that says "Elbows Up Never 51" with a maple leaf in the colours of the Canadian flag and the test "est. 1867" below the leaf, but only the hands of the person holding the sign are visible.

Yet another person in a frog costume, holding a sign that says "Frogs Together Strong" and "Epstein's Island with Donald Trump" in the style of the Gilligan's Island credits.

Drove out to Uxbridge today, there's still a lot of green in Durham so you have a bit of time.

Touched grass today. It was ok I guess, I wouldn't not do it again, but I don't get what all the fuss is about. #touchedgrass #photography #seenwhilewalking

A left hand with the index finger outstretched touching tall grass. The hand is attached to a left arm wearing an analog watch with a black NATO strap and a blue fleece jacket.

All that versatility in one pen, I already love it.

🎃c̦t̟͋̕ope̺͇͊d̠̐̊a͖l̬͐̆ 👻🦇💀 @octopedal.bsky.social · 15d

I got a cheap one a couple of years ago and now I have like five. Not sure if this is a warning or an endorsement.

I just got mine on Friday. It's going to take a bit of practice to control the line but I love playing with it so far.
