I’m trying to understand the sounds of the universe that we cannot hear. So I am sitting on the shores of Kraken Mare on Titan with my cosmic cello. My cello translates these sounds and plays to me. Incredibly relaxing exercise.

A Cormorant taking off! It amazes me how they are able to do this just after diving underwater.

It's an important occasion today, but Steve and Brad are having trouble getting dressed. They're trying their best.

As the sea’s voice drifts into infinity, the blue sky lets the clouds fly—carrying rain to places where flowers will bloom again. 🌊🌧️🌼

SOUND ON.
Instead of a photo, here's a short video from Borneo. Normally I don't condone handling of wildlife, but something was obviously stuck beneath our truck. You might say we were a bit surprised about what our guide pulled out...

The name 'Aysgarth' is from Old Norse, brought by Viking settlers to the area. It means 'open space in the oak trees'. The falls have attracted famous figures for over 200 years, including Wordsworth, J.M.W. Turner, and Ruskin.
