On Tuesday of last week I was on my way home from an appointment and decided to stop at a spot just up the road for a few photos. I was checking the tips of the branches for early signs of spring and lucked into these images of feathers. #photography #closeupphotography #feathers

The snow is just about gone (for now) but there are still places where it adds its magic touch to a bit of bark or a broken branch on the ground. #photography #backyardphotography

A couple of minimalist shots today. Sort of a contrast between old life hanging on, and new life waiting to burst forth. #photography #minimalistphotography #backyardphotography

Something a little different today. The first image is actually 12 images merged together through focus stacking. It's my first try and I'm doing this manually so it's a bit rough. The other is just an icy bit of road at Hartman Creek State Park. #photography #focusstacking #icyroads

I was out one day last week and made a quick side trip to a local park to see what sort of images I might find. I was mostly looking for textures and patterns. These two came out okay, but I think I want to do some more work on them in post. #photography #texturephotography #trees

Looking for some early signs of spring. It's still quite a ways off where we are, but some plants are starting test test the air just a little... #photography #earlyspring #backyardphotography

My eye is often drawn to little scenes of chaos that seem to be asking me to share. These are examples of those times. The close up of the leaf was not specially interesting until I got in really close and saw that it appears to be pixelated. #photography #backyardphotography #pixelatedleaf

Here are a couple images created while I was out in Parfreyville. I was taken by the colors and textures in these scenes.

I'm fascinated by the patterns and textures that I see in the slushy water flowing over and around these rocks in the Crystal River. What I don't understand, though, is why I'm so cold lately... 😉

I feel like Los Angeles is a place where people expect ICE to happen because the kidnappings have been happening to my home city for decades, so there’s less media attention to it now. and I want folks to see that in LA, Latine students are organizing major protests & the police are attacking them
LAPD Charges at Hundreds of High School Students in Peaceful Walkout Protest at MDC ~ L.A. TACO
LAPD arrested at least two teenagers protesting ICE raids in Los Angeles yesterday. They were also seen corresponding with ICE agents on Alameda Street during the demonstrations.

These three images are from the Crystal River at Parfreyville. What I find happening when I look at these is that my eyes get lost in the textures and contours and start to drift out of focus and my mind follows, helping me relax into a meditative or contemplative state. #photography #meditativeart

A couple of leaves hanging on and making magic in the winter sunlight. I love the tiny "shadow puppet" on the first one, including a glimpse behind the curtain. #photography #backyardphotography #leavesinwinter #wintersun

Snow cone anyone? I found these bits of plant life resting atop the cold snow and ice, and they called out to me. I said the other day that I feel like I've been cold for weeks and perhaps this is my way of sharing that feeling. You're welcome. 😉

A couple of images providing a peak at what is going on under the snow. Mostly pretty quiet right now. #photography #backyardphotography

A couple of images that just caught my eye. Not super happy with them, but they do have a certain vibe that feels right - a bit of ice on a shelf, and a leaf bleeding into the snow. #photography #backyardphotography #snowonplantsphotography

I think it's very clear at this point that this regime is going to try to overturn the results of the Midterm elections at this point. That does not mean they will be successful but we absolutely need to be prepared for that effort at this point.

WRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. They’re signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.
Q: You're a constitutional lawyer. Can you detail the 4th Amendment protections someone has if ICE approaches their home w/an administrative warrant?

MIKE JOHNSON: When ICE goes to execute a warrant, it's issued by an immigration judge, & that is a sufficient legal authority to go apprehend someone

"Excuse me, sir..." When I went out to get the mail, there were two does in the yard. This one seemed especially curios about what I was doing and if I might have something interesting in my hands, or maybe I need an extended warranty on my camera. #photography #deerphotography #backyardphotography

Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future.

In celebration of Imbolc, I was inspired to go out and create some images highlighting the liminal space between winter and spring. I hope you enjoy them, and take a moment to consider this time of transition. #imbolc #photography #liminal #transitions

Two in the bush. Pictures of black-capped chickadees in the Rhododendron. I love the texture and the appearance of motion in the feathers. I would have preferred a bit less clutter, but you work with what you have. #photography #birdphoto #backyardphotography #chickadee

Yeah, I've got my eye on you... This Dove had just hopped out from under the Rhododendron and was watching me closely as I prepared to get this picture. It didn't seem particularly worried though, just cautious. #photography #backyardphotography #birdphotography
