📷 We already don’t get enough sun as it is in Pittsburgh for most of the year so I’d prefer if it were slightly foggy all the time instead of overcast.

Millennials have gone too far with the whole responding to a text when I feel like it thing because self care or whatever. I respond to a text when I see because I am your friend and I enjoy interacting with you.

there is no place in heaven for those that randomly launch fireworks in my dense neighborhood and frighten my sensitive dogs

if the videos don’t perfectly, seamlessly loop, the vine reboot isn’t worth it.

fighting an urge to start saying “shrimply” instead of “simply” or else it will destroy my personal and professional relationships

Once we had the cat era of the Internet. Then we had the dog era. Those days have waned and now it is time for bird people usher in a new era.

📷 Happy Halloween!!! 💀 😈
I was snapping away at a bonfire a few years ago and didn’t notice this spooky face looking back at me. Is it haunted or just a good example of our brains searching for shapes and patterns?

📷 Among the cascades and rapids in Slippery Rock Creek there are pockets of stillness that reflect the forest above.

📷 McConnells Mill is one of my favorite hiking spots that I keep coming back to. It’s spectacular in any season you visit.

I hate that I keep on looking at this photo I took and thinking that it kinda looks like AI because of the sharpness, smooth BG and slightly warm lighting when in reality it’s just a 135mm f/2 lens.
