Here’s an introduction thread! I’m a photographer based in Halifax, Nova Scotia! I shoot headshots, portraiture, and events professionally and have been dabbling in wildlife as hobby lately. I would love to connect with more photographers! Here’s some of my favourite shots! #photographersofbluesky
🧵1/3 As someone with ADHD the Apple reminders app should be helpful to me but it’s useless. It’s not persistent enough, I can easily ignore reminders, most of the time I don’t even see them anymore. #adhd

Went for a hike in Victoria Park for the first time last week and was lucky enough to pass by a doe and her fawn who has grown out of their spots. The doe was very unbothered by me and the fawn, while cautious, still let me get pretty close to snap these shots! #novascotia #wildlifephotography

Photographers, what are your strategies for staying on top of social media? I will post my work regularly for a few weeks & then suddenly it’s been a month since I’ve posted. I’m in lifestyle & headshot work mainly so I do think it’s relevant to stay active. #photographersofbluesky #photography

Our SmartVoting.ca projections have updated, and we have seen a 10+ seat drop for Doug Ford. The The Liberals and NDP all gained in this update.
There is a trend emerging. The drops for Ford were gained by the strategic vote in all ridings. 9 days left. Let's keep this going.

Keith Haring died of AIDS aged 31 on 16 Feb 1990.
One of his last works, Unfinished Painting, was deliberately incomplete, reflecting the devastating, unquantifiable loss to the arts due to AIDS.

"The implications for the public are that they will have a harder time than they already do getting any objective sense of what is going on in their government," said NDP’s Claudia Chender.
"It appears that Tim Houston wants to have less scrutiny than he already has."
