evenings dressed in neon beaches all alone warm welcome waters an oasis to explore #inkMine #oasis #poem #poetry #writerslift

From an iPhone, unedited. The Azov Sivash (now occupied). One of my greatest life achievements is growing up fast enough to recognize and appreciate the beauty of my hometown before it all disappeared, making the effort to visit these places instead of just going to popular spots. #landscape

The sky ignites in hues so deep, A twilight spell begins to creep. The sun bows low, its golden fire, As waves reflect night's cool attire. Soft winds whisper, tides embrace, A world of wonder, time’s slow grace. In blue hour’s glow, the heart will find, A fleeting dream, a peaceful mind.

‼️Elon Musk spread a fake that an "official of Zelensky’s Defense Ministry" stole $46 million. We are talking about the former head of the State Corporation "Ukrspetsexport" and the State Corporation "Ukroboronprom" during the Yanukovych era - Dmytro Peregudov, who has been wanted since 2017.

Another view of this morning’s sunrise, x150 speed.

South Africa's Chapmans Peak is a stunning combination of towering mountains & ocean. I climbed down a steep slope to capture it from sea level. The only one, far from the noise & tourists above, I kept looking out for dangerous rogue waves, but that just made it more fun! #photography #bluesky

Here’s a little video I made. 💖

Sunrise After the Storm Mazatlan Mexico. 350 MP Panorama. Thunderstorms for several hours and then the sun rose and gave us a wonderful show of the new day ahead. Sept 2023 #mazatlan #mexico #pacific #sunrise #clouds #storm #photography #travel #tf_photography #tf_photoscapes #landscape

Ok, so I am in deep joy in nature. But it was tough to drive into Sedona & see the Ponderosa Pines in duress. Pasting a popular press article. cronkitenews.azpbs.org/2022/05/09/f...

This. Is. Awesome.

Waves crash upon the golden shore. Whispers of legends, lost in lore. The sun ignites the sky so bold, A tale of fire, a tale of gold. Rocks stand strong, through storm and tide. Guardians of the ocean devide. Foam and fury, sky so bright, Nature’s dance in fading light.

FERC approved a decision by PJM, the nation's largest electricity market, to fast-track gas-fired power plants based on an "emergency." Advocates say the principle of equal access for renewables was jettisoned based on unfounded speculation about demand growth. insideclimatenews.org/news/2202202...

Another dataset I like is from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program, which has maps of the US that show we fixed the acid rain problem by implementing stricter emission controls on power plants. nadp.slh.wisc.edu/maps-data/nt...

in the trump administration, “merit” is pronounced “white” like how strom thrumond said it.

PSA if you let your cats outdoors to hunt you might lose them. Keep them inside.

A word on Orson Welles and Herman J. Mankiewicz in the making of Citizen Kane, and on Pauline Kael's scurrilous essay on the subject, Raising Kane (the movie plays tonight at Film Forum at 7:20, introduced by @michaelschulman.bsky.social whose mileage may differ): www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

He nails it.

I try not to think in terms of good or bad light in #landscapephotography as I am convinced there is a scene or image for any type of light. But sometimes is worth getting up for #sunrise to catch the first light of the day! #ocean #sea #sunrise #madeira

My millennial daughter sent me this from a South African friend on Facebook. Worth remembering, every day. 🦋🌿✨❤️

The shortest honeymoon in history.

Rock sculpted by water and with some nice frost textures to boot. No tripod for this one, just a hand-held exposure bracket to deal with the dynamic range. #naturephotography #landscapephotography

The weekend starts here! One of the benefits of needing to get up to use the loo at night is that I get to check if there's any northern lights... Last night there was, so I got a few layers on & headed outside at 2.15am! These are weird faded corona patterns that I've seen a few times. #Iceland

🇺🇸👀 Unknown people shot at Tesla showroom in Oregon, and left a message for Musk.

New: DOGE's spending has been secret. No longer. My colleagues have uncovered it. www.propublica.org/article/doge...

So if you criticize Elon Musk, Trump’s DOJ will send you this letter. Members of Congress must have the right to forcefully oppose the Trump Administration. I will not be silenced.
