I love the quality of light in November in the North land. ❤️

Some random photos from a recent trip to Ireland that were on my phone. I woke up today wishing I could go back for a longer visit. 🇮🇪

A lake in Galway, Ireland with a mysterious (to me) structure in the water made of concrete, shaped like an “O” with an oblong opening at one end and a circle in the middle of it. About ten feet further out in the water, there is a white cross sticking up out of the water. All are painted white.

A modern hearse on the street (in Galway, Ireland) with the back opened, full of flowers.

A safety warning sign on the beach at Galway Bay depicting a stick figure diving and hitting its head on a rock.

An unlit neon star attached to the top of a tombstone with the words “Baby Mick” on it, set against a background of pink and blue cloud cover (sky).

30 seconds of noticing. If it was a bee I could make a pun about “beliefs”. 🐝 🍁

This week I experienced the usual fears but also experienced: my sweetheart playing his old #jencoceleste by the fire on our patio, the amazing aurora (even in the city!), my son being game to do our annual “fall on our street” photo, even though he’s almost 20. I’m grateful. #photography #bskyphoto

Dark photo of a man playing keyboard instruments outside at night near a fire pit. A lot of red light.

Wide-angle photo of a house, the sky above it streaked with red and green and purple northern lights.

A photo looking up at the sky at night 2ith bright red and green streaks of aurora borealis.

A portrait young man dressed in maroon corduroy jacket and black and white striped pants, standing in the middle of a street full of autumn leaves, evening light.

We got a fancy automatic espresso maker a few years back and like it but it busted recently and we’re not in a hurry to pay to get it fixed. This made me go back to my old Moka Pot, which I really love. 🤓 if I didn’t have a cat on top of me I’d send a pic, it’s has a lovely patina from overuse.

Biding his time.

#thedeclineandfallofthehumanempire

Photograph of a brown tabby cat on a blue bedspread curled up on top of an iPad and resting next to a book entitled “The Decline and Fall of the Human Empire” by Henry Lee. The cover is purple with pink text and a graphic of silhouettes of males of our species evolving progressively from ape to man with iPhone about to fall off a cliff. There is also a corner of a journal page in the lower left corner with a list of conflicting feelings and potential causes for them.

Happy Monday.

Photograph of a beige and brown house’s front door with an American flag hanging upside-down over its stair railing. The flag is partially obscured by overgrown foliage directly in front of the house. I saw it as a kind of quiet but persistent protest.

A photo of a backyard wooden fence with a plastic hawk—the kind used to scare critters to keep them out of the garden—sitting on it in the foreground and a REAL red-tailed hawk sitting on the fence a few feet away from it in the background.

Man! I worked hard for others in May and June to make a living, but I saved July to work on stuff for ME! Looking forward to working/playing with photo ideas that serve no purpose other than making me think/smile. #photozine #photobooks #uselessnecessities #cyanotype #altphotography #bookbinding

Cyanotype print of an image of an abstract white horse made out of paper on a blue background.

Happy Monday, babies.

Black and white close up photograph of a brown tabby cat looking up, all you can really see is his white ruff, mouth, and nose. Wearing a collar with a bell and a tag that says “Pippin”.

Black and white close up photograph of a brown tabby cat laying on a sidewalk yawning, though it looks like he’s laughing.

Black and white photograph of a brown tabby cat from behind, sitting on a sidewalk, looking to his left.

Black and white photograph of a brown tabby cat sitting on a leaf patterned rug with two sets of human legs/feet—one in pajamas and a striped bathrobe and the other in white pants and sneakers—behind him, and a bottle in the foreground. He’s yawning and it looks like he’s yelling.

He was childlike, but when he went into the studio with the Wrecking Crew, he was razor sharp and knew exactly what he wanted. Bizarre stories about his quirkiness abound. His music was complex and spoke to the lost but hopeful part of all of us. Thank you #BrianWilson #ijustwasntmadeforthesetimes ❤️

Faffing around in #photoshopbeta , “testing” newish features. Before anyone bites my head off for ai images, they are old ones I pulled just for the faffing (w some coloring options). They are inspo. I still want to make them in the real world. 🤓😘

Why is there a cross displayed along with the Ten Commandments outside the MN State Capital? Minnesota peeps? Its weird. What the hell?!

#separationofchurchandstate #republicanshavegonecompletelybonkers #thoushaltnoteffwithmyrights

Photo taken March 25 that shows the Minnesota State Capitol’s facade with a display in the foreground of a wooden cross planted in the ground with a sandwich-board sign with the Ten Commandments printed on it.
