Bitter Irony is the week you finally quit drinking coffee at the same time your neighbor has decided to cover their entire backyard with coffee grounds as a means of fertilizer and it now smells like coffee all the time… 🫢

Like most media conglomerates @axios.com was bought out by Cox media in 2022. Axios is all
about profit, sensationalized headlines and cannot be relied on for accurate reporting. End of story.

When you watch LA cops stomping an unarmed man already on the ground with their horses, you’re not surprised. You’re watching a ritual. Power proving it has no leash, no shame, and no intention of accountability. The violence isn’t the failure, it’s the feature.

White people have 2 choices, I think. We can accept that regardless of intent, we've been the main problem for centuries, or we can stick with pride and resentment.
Do we want to admit the truth and fix this marriage so we're all happier? Or do we want to be like those bitter old men who die alone?

White America knows that every few presidential cycles, Black people have been able to get *just enough* of the rest of us to give a shit for five minutes that we get a breather.
We struggle to believe they can't magically fix this too. But they can't. And they shouldn't have to anyway.

The light from above gives a playful entanglement of light and shadow, revealing surreal shapes and patterns. I could do this all night

This is Orchid #5 from “The Orchid Years”.
A series of images I started a couple years back that was done by implementing UV flashlights, lighting techniques, compositing and focus stacking.

In 2019 my family lost their home in Northern California to the Kincaid fire. Started by pg&e!
There are no words to express the loss that stays with you forever, shapes you and reminds you that nothing is permanent.
Stay strong Los Angeles. Let us fight on!

Fox Gloves.
I can’t think of a more resilient and beautiful perennial plant.
Propped a tripod on a poison ivy draped hillside.
Shot on Nikon D850 in the dark back lit by UV flashlight.
