Where I live, there aren't that many brightly colored subjects. But when they appear, it's a welcome opportunity to shoot Ektachrome.

There have been messages on social media that have quoted from Pope Francis's letter of yesterday (February 10). I went and looked up the original (in English translation), and I believe it's worth reading and sharing. A link is attached.

Today the Society for Technical Communication, a professional organization for technical writers, filed Chapter 7 (absolute) bankruptcy. I had been a member for 28 years.
This is a sad day.

I've been on Bluesky for 3 or 4 hours now. Most of that time has been spent blocking accounts for spamming me with AI-generated landscape photos, some of which are fraudulently put forth as photos of specific real places on Earth. That happened fast.
