Snowy weather at night over a barley field. A warm, glowy light from a nearby greenhouse lights up the field and the snow in the air.

It’s snowing so much, I didn’t dare to open the viewfinder. Metering? What’s that? Classic #ShittyCameraChallenge stuff. @shittychallenge.bsky.social

Trump did it because of drugs, except Trump pardoned drug traffickers. Trump did it because of authoritarianism, except Trump loves most authoritarians. He did it for regime change, except they left most of the regime in place. Was it simply dementia?

One of my favourite buildings to photograph was recently torn down, so this week is a little tribute series. The photos are from a few years ago. Gonna miss that warm light.
