This is my first photograph of a cloud shadow. I ended up taking many photos of clouds, sky, contrails over the course of 10 years. This one also looks best in color... #photograph #photography

Thought I lost all my poems when my laptop failed. Saved my art and half of my poetry. I remembered I used to post poetry on my website so…I went into edit mode and opened the archived Poetry page. App had saved over 100 pages of poems I posted! So, I think I have recovered about 75% of my writing
