Hiya, with lenses and lights iPhones can be fun daily cameras. I do miss my old Olympus daily pocket film camera though. APexel makes some crazy lenses for phones.

Hi. Yes I used a macro lens with my iPhone on this mug made by a local wonderful ceramicist. We have maybe 8 of his pieces. I love his glazes.

Penny is a good friend to us. She helped my partner and I through the covid lockdown bigtime. She was a barely alive little street kitten that we nursed back to health. She is awesome and is both spicy and sweet at times.

Not a stupid question at all. This is fairly exotic and called a Tingui Pod. It is native to Brazil and is used in terrariums, vivariums and paludariums. It is used for hides and points of interest for lizards, frogs, insects, and simply as decoration in terrariums.

“Hello, your call is scheduled for five minutes from now. Thank you for using Europa Telecom.” The chair squeaks as I lean back waiting to hear someone say my name. Fourteen days out from the air leak and I hate not hearing my name. Hate. My mind races. What kind of crap is that? What an ass! People at home, lost loved ones, and I only need to hear my– “Hello…” My pulse quickens. “…your call has been disconnected. Please try again later.”   a hard tear rolls lone Romeo hums a tune upper lip shaking

Folded over a chair my friend’s jacket dropped a pen. He had left to stretch and moan and nap between shifts. It rolled under a cabinet never to be seen again. I stared across the table eating horrid vanilla-less pudding. Our friends the droning beeps came from the air scrubbers and boops from the water filters. Like audio tennis beep to boop, filter to scrubber. Beep to boop. Beep to boop. Beep to boop. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. I was already napping when the game ended. a simple little glitch so small and unnoticed till the waters dried
