A yellow-bellied sapsucker! It's a woodpecker!

This was a very complex image to edit. I'll probably have to do a second run at a desktop where I have more control.

A Yellow-bellied Sapsucker clings to the side of a thick, textured tree trunk in a sunlit park. The medium-sized woodpecker has a striking red crown, white face stripes, and mottled black-and-white plumage. It’s angled downward, gripping the bark with its claws as it pecks at the surface. The tree has rich, twisting bark with reddish-brown tones, and evergreen needles frame the upper part of the image. In the softly blurred background, vibrant plastic playground equipment in red, yellow, and pink adds pops of color amid green grass and distant trees, suggesting a public park or schoolyard setting. The overall scene feels peaceful and vibrant, with the bird sharply in focus against a softly lit, slightly shadowed environment.

I was playing with my phone's camera after having just gotten it.

I love how alien the macro world can look.

A high-resolution, extreme close-up (macro) photograph of a bright pink flower, capturing a detailed view of the bloom’s center structures against softly blurred petals in the background. Occupying the lower portion and center of the image is a compact cluster of upright, cylindrical filaments - these appear to be the flower’s stamens or inner petals. They range in color from hot pink to pale blush at their tips, with some filaments topped by creamy white edges. The cluster itself has a layered appearance, almost like tiny spirals or ridges, fanning slightly outward in a cone-like formation. Each filament is gently curved or slightly curled at the tip, adding to the intricate texture. Surrounding this center cluster, the petals spread out in broad, overlapping layers, tinted in gentle gradients of pink. Closer to the center, the pink has a richer hue, transitioning into subtler shades of peach-tinged pink as the petals extend outward. Fine veins and wispy textures are faintly visible across the petal surfaces, and the outer edges of the petals curve softly, fading out of focus as they near the image borders. The lighting appears soft and diffused, illuminating the flower evenly without harsh shadows, giving the scene a dreamlike, delicate quality. Small variations in color, from hints of yellow or peach near the petal bases to deeper magenta near the core, add depth to the overall composition. Because of the macro perspective, the flower fills nearly the entire frame; very little else is visible around it. The background gently melds into the petals, which continue to unfold in a blur of pink tones. This emphasizes the intricate details of the stamen-like structure at the heart of the flower, the focal point. The textural contrasts between the smooth petals and the slightly rougher, layered center create visual interest, beckoning the viewer to focus on the minute shapes and color transitions that might otherwise be overlooked in a normal, more distant shot.

Abandoned prison in Jefferson City, Missouri.

A decaying red-brick prison stands behind layers of razor-wire fences, its windows shattered and lifeless. The entire scene is desaturated except for the building’s deep red hue, which bleeds into the structure like a stain that cannot be washed away. The fence in the foreground appears streaked with red, as if rusted with blood, tangled in coils of sharp barbed wire. The stark contrast between the blinding white sky and the deep black shadows makes the prison feel frozen in time—cold, unyielding, and filled with the ghosts of its past.

Never forget Birdie Sanders
Bernie Sanders with white hair and glasses, wearing a dark suit and blue tie, smiles while speaking at a podium with a microphone. A small bird is perched on the podium near a sign that reads 'A Future to Believe In.' A water bottle is also visible on the podium. The background features a blurred crowd and an American flag.

I wish I had the energy to lug around my dslr like I did in college. I'd have to get a small portable camera if my cellphone didn't do as well as it does!

A late winter landscape at sunset, with the sun glowing through the branches of tall, leafless trees. The sky transitions from deep blue at the top to golden near the horizon. Long shadows stretch across a paved path in the foreground, while the sunlight creates a warm shimmer on the road. The scene is rich in contrast, with dark silhouettes of trees against the soft, glowing sky.

The full art. It's originally a screen grab I got on an old iPad 4 of an old Mathstown (YouTube) fractal zoom, with various modifications on my end.
A digitally enhanced fractal-based avatar featuring intricate patterns and vibrant colors. The design showcases swirling, abstract forms with a sense of depth and movement, blending bright hues of blue, purple, and pink against darker tones. The central structure resembles a complex, organic shape with branching elements and layered textures, evoking a sense of fluidity and interconnectedness.
