Sold my first print of the dynamic image of running Camargue horses to a collector! I framed it simply for her with a white mat and frame that lets the contrast of the photo really stand out. #artcollecting

I’ve been neglecting BlueSky lately! Here are a few photos I took of the majestic white horses of the Camargue in southern France a couple of weeks ago. This is not my usual subject matter, but it was a wonderful experience and I actually got some images I really like. #horses #camargue

Here’s a really good piece on artist Bruce Willen’s Ghost Rivers project documenting Baltimore’s buried waterways. I love this project and am happy to see it get widespread attention. #Baltimore #ecoart medium.com/the-new-clim...

“They Don’t Make Them Like That Anymore,” fashion edition. This hoodie was my mom’s — I think she got it around 1980. I still wear it to this day. Even the drawstrings are still in perfect condition. 100% cotton, made in the USA. This thing is iron!

This beautiful exhibition featured on Lenscratch looks so fabulous and features the work of friend and fellow Baltimore artist Karen Klinedinst. I wish I could see this show in person! lenscratch.com/2025/03/high...

An internal Social Security Administration memo, dated March 13 and obtained by Popular Information, lays out a plan to sabotage the agency.

The memo itself predicts "service disruption," "operational strain," and "budget shortfalls" will result.

I love how the lines and textures of these leaves are emphasized by rendering them in black and white. #longwoodgardens #photography

Daybreak and midday. Reflections of the clock tower at The Edition in Manhattan. I like the complexity of the cityscape, clock reflection, and the construction workers in the building across the way. #photography

When I first heard about this, I was skeptical, and some people I shared this with responded with dismissive “that won’t happen” and “they won’t enforce this” answers. Well, here we go. I’m glad I have my marriage certificate and use my birth surname as my middle name…but is that enough?
As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:

“It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

Sometimes black and white is the answer. I’m more known for color work, but eliminating color can emphasize the forms, textures, and light, introducing a level of mystery and abstraction. #photography

I spent a lovely few hours the other day at the US National Botanical Garden, which is a perfect place in DC to escape into a peaceful world of plants. Backlit leaves are my jam. #photography

Desert trumpets are challenging to photograph well, and so fascinating! I had some fun framing them in different ways on a very foggy morning in Joshua Tree. #photography

A photo for the day. My husband really liked this one when he saw it on my laptop screen last night. This was taken a little over a week ago during our last cold snap. My favorite thing about winter is photographing ice. #photography

Random photo for the day. A window in an out-of-commission train car in the town of Alamosa, Colorado. #photography

Some details from Escalante Petrified Forest State Park. It’s a little gem in the Grand Staircase National Monument in southern Utah. Nice campground and a good short hike to see these lovely specimens scattered across the landscape. #naturemacro

I am a big fan and supporter of the #NationalParks and have been closely following the @altnps.bsky.social updates. In support and solidarity I thought I’d start sharing some photos of the many national parks and monuments I have visited and enjoyed so much.

It’s cold and windy here today. Temps will be dropping this week. Maybe I will get another opportunity to make some ice photos! #ice #photography
