and a few more from the earlier beach walk, because despite feeling like I haven't gotten out nearly enough, I did realize there's a bit of a backlog.

a recent attempt at a hike failed because it was DUMPING rain in contradiction of the forecast, but it wasn't a total loss, I got a few experiments with lighting out of it (trying out using "too much", as opposed to my customary "too little"), and I know where to […]

the season for grossness, evidently (experimenting a bit with lighting)

A friend-of-a-friend got me a belated Christmas present that only just arrived, a "52 Macro Photography Assignments" book, one project a week. They must know me well - both my emerging interest, and the way my brain seems to function better when it has some structure/direction to rely on […]

#thicktrunktuesday it was leaning way out over the edge of the mountain, so a good opportunity to play with some delightfully confusing perspective 😆

Some days I tell myself that what I share isn't meant necessarily to be "a distraction" from current events, rather to "emotionally fortify" for the fight ahead... some days I'm not convinced that even holds up as a rationalization for myself. It's an absolute […]

and wishes for as hopeful a new year as is possible in present circumstances... I'm under no pretense that things will be "happy", but we still hold out hope for the best available outcome, and do what we can to make change in that direction. I'm not setting any specific goals that are tied […]

and one last extra, 3 of 2 from the same walk, of some more potentially uncomfortable content (death warning), I wish there were a way to just blur images with a clickable spoiler without having to block the entire message... still Frazier Park CA June 2023 […]

evidently the platform doesn't allow for video and still images in the same post, so here's post 1.5 of 2, of the back yard hike in Frazier Park CA back in June of 2023, still a personal high point. Teenager just not watching where he was going (to be fair, I […]

I know it's a new year and I should be throwing up the "new", but I still cling to personal rituals, and #throwbackthursday is something I've found some degree of comfort in the routine? so I might as well share some of my personal favorite of the "old", from a […]

as we're going to see the Lion King musical tonight, which we've both seen long ago, partner suggested that today could be a "nostalgia" theme, so to that front, here's a rare recent selfie next to a life-size cardboard cutout my sister had in her yard, before it […]
