Project Plowshare might disagree with your definition of "better done". Which reminds me, I have been to both the beach and Exploding Whale Memorial Park in Florence, but I still need to check the Sedan crater off of my bucket list.

10% waxing crescent moon that set at approximately 242 degrees at 7:46pm tonight, Sept. 24.

Ferry is the M/V Kaleetan.

Colors and haze courtesy the Bear Gulch Fire.

Still looking for that one perfect shot, though. Back out next month!

It's the heron's world and we're all just living in it.

Smoke plume from the #beargulchfire on the Olympic Peninsula, rising behind a docked Washington State ferry, as seen from Sunset Ave in Edmonds, WA. #wawx #smoke #fire @ferries.wsdot.wa.gov #photography @watchduty.org #wildfire #wildfires #wawildfire

Just another Puget Sound sunset.

The universe, or God, or nature, makes the art. I'm just incredibly lucky to get to be here to press the shutter release sometimes.

Good turnout today at the #Edmonds Car and Motorcycle show.

This blue 1967 Chevy Malibu was my personal favorite, as it reminded me of my brother's car, and one of the first insane road trip dates I took my future wife on.

August may have been good, but I don't know because I was flying back from dropping a kid at college. Priorities; no regrets. I did take this shot out the airplane window on my Pixel 7a, somewhere over central California. The next night the smoke from the Bear Gulch fire was in the way.

One of my (many) attempts from July, still too far north and the clouds weren't right.

We used to call #Edmonds, Washington "Deadmonds", and joke about rolling the sidewalks up at 6pm. Not for a while now, though -- vibrant nightlife on a cool end-of-summer Saturday evening.

Bishop, California cannot possibly be real.

Nobody likes to have to navigate around road construction, but when this is the background...well maybe that's not so bad.

Living a few miles inland of Puget Sound feels like a cheat code for #stunday.

TFW you have to reconsider your control group because it turns out they have been eating nuclear fallout.

Thought of @funranium.bsky.social just now when I was reading a paper I was using as a reference to settle an argument in my extended family group chat.

This Friday is opening night for Shadows Under the Market -- a teen horror comedy, at the Seattle Public Theater!

Looks like opening night is pretty much sold out, but some of the other shows still have a few seats left. Get your tickets now at seattlepublictheater.org

Well, I went out last night and tonight, and got a few with the mountains, but none of them nearly as spectacular as I'd hoped for. The clouds were gorgeous, but the glare was just too much until the moon got close to the horizon. (also major "rule of thirds" violations...) Next month!

Yet another Puget Sound crescent moon picture with the ferry.

I went out last night at sunset for a couple of hours, to try to catch a thin sliver of the moon, but the timing wasn't right, and the haze and clouds didn't work.

Luckily, I turned 90 degrees to the north and noticed Mt. Baker trying to hide in the haze.

The texture and color in the clouds tonight was humbly stunning.

Unfortunately, I was too lazy to swap lenses, so this is the best shot I got, and you'll all just have to take my word for it.
