Charm City original nerd bringing you open data from space and climate resilience from Baltimore. Also: liminal places, analog art (incl occasional cyanotypes), local weirdness. Not: employer opinions.
Sprites at Cylburn Arboretum by Aaron Smith, from reclaimed materials from Baltimore's Camp Small, a city-run wood reclamation project. There are 18 of them to find, and you are encouraged to move them.

I get furloughed in this shutdown, maybe I can start a side gig as a pumpkin influencer.

Watkins Glen NY State Park Gorge Trail immediately after overnight rain certainly is a thing.

This begs the question of who but the Corning Museum of Glass in upstate New York is even in the running for largest glass pumpkin, but it's still an impressive feat.

Work in Progress: extra cicada parade-a fellow picked up last year. Approximately 1 in 200,000 17-year cicadas have blue-grey eyes. I found one in the old yard, gonna paint up a friend in its honor.

The original project in Baltimore:

The Iceland poppies had some feelings about yesterday's weather, too, but now the rain barrels are full. #bloomscrolling

American Visionary Art Museum Kinetic Sculpture Race from Patterson Park. Pure and bright #Baltimore weirdness. #AVAM.

For morale: the Iceland poppies are still going and bright beyond the capabilities of this camera firmware.

Potential fun and educational new #StreetPhotography project: world's most dodgy ATMs.

Nice night to see HR of Bad Brains and the Dead Kennedys in the shadow of the Capitol though.

Long walk from a family celebration, discovered the DC suburban cherry trees are suddenly in peak bloom.

In other news of small useless coping projects, current #knitting is turning sock scraps into a gazillion tiny plush acorns; I expect by the time I finish a dozen, I will finally appreciate double pointed needles.

Met a screech owl today! Her name is Tiny and she lives at Hawk Mountain Sanctuary since she can't fly. Don't make fun of her ear tufts, she's molting.

Just because I haven't seen it with alt text here, David Lynch's birthday meditation celebration sounds like a lovely thing to do this Jan 20, 2025:

From the archives, more extremely expired #Polaroid from the trip to #Arizona where I filled my entire luggage with astrophotography gear and instead of clear skies I got rained on in the desert. Arguably more precious an experience. Still a little mad.
