A sharply focused Eurasian magpie stands alert on a weathered tree stump, its glossy black head and back contrasting with a bright white shoulder and belly. The bird’s pale grey bill and dark, watchful eye are turned slightly to the side, giving it an inquisitive expression. Soft green foliage blurs into the background, isolating the magpie’s striking black-and-white plumage while a few blades of grass sprout from the textured stump beneath its feet.

Good morning. Today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme is #Corvidae any bird of the Corvid family. The alt is #LongNecks any bird with a long neck. Good luck. #birds #photography #ECK

I do fancy a fried breakfast, but I'm not sure about these mushrooms :)

Beautiful capture

Colour image of a Venetian lamppost with gondola and boat movement on the canal. It’s misty so the building faded to the background

Today I thought I would bring you a little bit of Venice colour. It also works really well in B&W but felt like a change

Happy birthday

A forest with bare trees in the background. The morning sun pushes through the fog at the right, illuminating some branches with brown leaves on the ground.

Happy Birthday

Raggedy teddy bear in a tree

This teddy bear has been in the trees at a park near my house for at least a few years. It's always in a different spot. I thought it was gone this year until yesterday when I finally spotted it. 🖤

A nighttime scene. A the center is a black and white tabby cat with bright green eyes. They are standing on a narrow stump with leaves at the bottom. The cat is surrounded by a number of glowing goldfish.

My birthday landed on a Caturday! Its a little funny. Anyhow I need to be more online, It’s too hard to stay inspired alone. You can’t only draw for work.

Thank you for the support everyone. This year there will be *new* art to look forward to.

"Let me watch over you tonight..
Let me guard your soul and your body..
Let me recite to you my love poems..
Let me caress you and feel the beat of your heart...

Sunrise at a favored place on this earth. It's quiet and peaceful there. The weight of the world can be lifted away for a short time. I can look for the occasional horseshoe crab that needs rescued. I can feel sand on my bare feet. Everything is different there from day to day, but the same.

Airglow Eclipse

In the hour of totality, there was still a lot of light.
Curious, I pointed the second camera to the south - and discovered quite a vibrant airglow in effect.

Did you know that as you slept early this morning, for a few moments your body was nearly parallel with the galactic plane? Did you know that, just then, owls were calling from somewhere deep in the woods? Wolf Creek Pass, Utah
