I remembered just as the sun set yesterday!
Looking down a city street at dusk, the sky is a cloudless gradient, orange to dark blue.

🇧🇷Tucano-de-papo-branco
🌎Ramphastos tucanus
Conservação: Vulnerável
O tucano-de-papo-branco é um Piciforme da família Ramphastidae

📷 Anselmo d`Affonseca
Um pássaro vibrante, com plumagem predominante preta e garganta branca, está pousado em um galho marrom acinzentado. Seu peito exibe uma faixa estreita de cor vermelha intensa. O bico, longo e curvo, apresenta uma combinação notável de cores: amarelo na base, com a maior parte em vermelho e uma faixa preta na mandíbula inferior. Os olhos são azuis, e as patas, de tom azul-acinzentado, agarram-se firmemente ao galho. O fundo revela uma folhagem suavemente desfocada em tons de verde.

Perfect blue stage for The One Leaf #SkyPortrait
Blue sky with white cloud surf pulling back on the left. One oak leaf clings to a branch--other branches are all bare. This time they're on the top of the image instead of the bottom.

Scott's stand is principled. I'm so disappointed that the company that bought the print magazines is blaming authors rather than taking responsibility for their own bad contract and changing it for everyone.

Did you read my post from last week about how contract woes caused me to withdraw an accepted story from F&SF, ending my 54-year quest to be published in that magazine? But wait (as the saying goes) — there's more! Scroll down at the link for an update. www.scottedelman.com/wordpress/20...

In the background the night sky can be seen through the trees, with a crescent moon, stars, and small standing stones on a hill. There’s a woodpecker on the trunk of the tree on the left. A Celtic knot symbol is carved into the tree trunk on the right.
