For @whistprword.bsky.social prompt of #jacket today

**Hard to choose just one. I have a lot of jackets! I have a lot of pretty men wearing my jackets in pretty pictures!

Jacket/photo: me
Model: Andrew (not on BS)
A photo of a man wearing a full length tattered white leather trench coat. He is facing away from the camera with the hood up, making it somewhat ominous. He stands in a wild field of grass and hills and there are fluffy clouds in the sky. The whole image has a dreamy overcast edge to the colors.

The back pages of a handmade book. The edges of each page are sharply outlined with black ink, and filled in with gradients of green to blue, to indigo to purple. Some of the bars are broken up with unpainted bands. The visible page has outlines of simple stars, and the cover of the book made of torn black paper is visible around the edges.

For #whistpr 's " #golden " challenge today: I always have sunflowers in the house, and my neighbor kindly gifted me these beautiful lemons, and they were so pretty and full of sunshine together.
