An overview of all the colored lights adorning plants and trees at the San Luis Obispo Botanical annual light show. There is a stone path in the foreground that is colored blue from lights, and along the sides of the paths you can see a variety of trees and plants lit in various colors off into the distance. There are blue, white, red, green and yellow lights illuminated in the darkness. San Luis Obispo Botanical Garden, California.

Moonrise as seen through the Lowry Ave. bridge in Minneapolis.

#SundaySunriseClub #landscape #moon #photography #Nikon #PhotographersUnited
A black and white photo of the moon, seen through the support structure of the Lowry Avenue Bridge. The moon is waning at 89% visible, almost centered between two curved steel beams that go over the bridge. The beams spread out near the roadway (not visible) and curve inward, joined by a horizontal support member above the moon. Round poles extend downwards from the beams to the decking.

News is coming to me via friends on Facebook, and via Fancyclopedia, that John Varley, who wrote Millennium, Steel Beach, and the Gaea trilogy (Titan, Wizard, Demon) has died. He was an excellent writer in the Campbell/Heinlein tradition, and I dug him a lot in my teens and early 20s. RIP.

Your regular reminder that years are constructs and whether or not you had a “good” or “bad” year is just a figment of perception.

Love fiercely. Create valiantly. Take no fucks regularly. Year or era be damned.

In a few of Louis L'Amour's novels he refers to a Grulla mustang/horse. Thought y'all might like to see one.
