My phone logged me out over a month ago and I just couldn't be bothered to log back in. Guess that goes to show how much I like interacting with social media.

just a quick lil glitch i made after our trip to Deacanso today. they have installations themed around “shade” all over the grounds. i especially loved these umbrellas!

a glitched snaking row of multicolored umbrellas with glitched sunlight coming down at a slanted angle, giving the ambiguous impression that these could be floating in the air or atop a body of water

Fun fact when I initially started working on this project my first concept was a music visualizer. Now 10+ years later I'm finally working on the audio reactivity part.

Audio here from the Risk of Rain 2 soundtrack by Chris Christodoulou.

Some flashing lights warning.

THE SUN STRIKES - humans remember birth and death
Series: DREAM WORLD (9/10)

In fiery descent, sun kisses earth—birth and endings blur within the glow.
#photography #contemporaryphotography #icm #abstract #motionblur #sunset
Abstract digital art photograph depicting a bright, dramatically vertical line of intense, white-hot light against a soft gradient backdrop of purples, pinks, and oranges. The central luminous streak widens near its base, touching a glowing horizon. Colors fade gently outward, creating the appearance of extreme motion blur, evoking a dreamy, surreal atmosphere.

Work was exhausting this week and I didn't want to go outside today so I did more work on my app instead.
Tweaking shaders, adding more options.
#glitchart
A version of the quoted photo run through a glitch filter. The mountain is still recognizable from the shape of it, but it's made up of streaky horizontal lines of varying colors now.

I always enjoy photographing storm clouds like this. In a way, it's fascinating. Do you enjoy it too?

I guess I'm collecting photos of other birds attacking bald eagles now. Here's an osprey I saw yesterday.

An osprey dives at a bald eagle perched at the top of a fir tree. The osprey has its talons reaching out in front, and the eagle has its wings spread and beak open.

Sometimes something happens and you just have to hope your camera settings are good enough where they're already at. I had so little time to react to this, and the light and background changed as they flew across the lake.

Crazy way to see a peregrine falcon for the first time.

A touch of color at sunrise on a morning I wasn't already at work by this time of day.

A lake view just before sunrise. The foreground is dark with grasses, irises, and a lake with lots of water plants in the foreground, a tree lined skyline, and wispy clouds with a touch of red from the sunrise.

There's some very low tides in the Salish Sea this week. Here's a gull doing some fishing in a tide pool. This move they do really amuses me.

#birds #pnw
A profile shot of a gull leaping out of the water. Wings spread, feet pushing off, creating a splash below it. The same gull at the peak of its leap. Its wings are spread, head and body are tilted down, and its feet are fully out of the water. The gull with its head in the water. Wings still spread, whole body tilted nearly vertically, feet tucked, and wings still spread.

It's the time of year when the frequency of the "Where can I see otters?" question increases.

I guess my usual reply of "it is up to the otters" doesn't help much...

One of my favorite birds is back flocking in the area. I love cedar waxwings. #birds #photography

Counting on the weather forecast to decide where to adventure that I'm less likely to get rained on tomorrow morning. It's the PNW though so I'll probably get wet anywhere.

Not usually one to spend a lot of time taking pictures of flowers, but I sure saw a lot of flowers yesterday.
I think they're rhododendrons? Not a plant expert by any stretch.

Just before the chase began. This angle shows just how big of a prize that fish was.
Learning more about editing.
