Today is my one year summit-iversary of Mount Kilimanjaro, and I am in a VERY different place than I was 365 days ago! Baby Ava made her debut Tuesday night, and I haven’t decided which is more difficult: climbing the world’s highest free-standing mountain or taking care of a newborn.

On this day last year I was on my way to Tanzania to climb Mount Kilimanjaro. Today I had to catch my breath halfway up the stairs. Four days to go… #getthisbabyoutofme

Protect our #NationalParks That’s it. That’s the post. #photography #photographersunited #naturephotos #findyourpark #saveourparks #americasbestidea

Oops I forgot to post the last couple days. Lots going on around here in my final week of pregnancy—wrapping up stuff at work and getting the house all ready for our new arrival! Here are a few of my favorite shots from the Big Apple for #TravelTuesday ✈️🏙️ #photography #photographersunited

Happy #Caturday from these big kitties 🦁🐆🇹🇿 #photography #photographersunited #wildlife #naturephotos

Happy #Valentine’sDay! This shot is titled “Date Night”, a lovely #pair of western blue #birds. 💙 #FebruArty #photography #photographersunited #backyardbirding #naturephotos

#ThrowbackThursday to one of my favorite days in the Sonoran Desert a couple years ago that made being unemployed totally worth it. And somewhat apropos because it’s pretty chilly and gloomy today. 🌵❄️ #photography #photographersunited #wxsky #arizona #tucson

For today’s #FebruArty theme of #orange I present four of my orangest sunsets 🌅 #photography #photographersunited #naturephotos #landscapes #sunset

Today’s #FebruArty theme is #Rings. Remember that Jupiter+Saturn conjunction back in 2020, the “Christmas Star”? Here are my shots of Jupiter and its ringed brother on that night. 🪐 #photography #astrophotography #photographersunited #sciart #space

Happy #SuperbOwl Sunday! 🦉 #photography #photographersunited #birdphotography #owls #naturephotos

This week’s #BlueSkyArtShow theme is #reflections so here are a few of my favorite natural mirrors from the last couple of years! I’m digging the curated tags because I don’t know what to post otherwise haha. #photography #photographersunited #sciart #naturephotos

#FebruArty: Today’s theme is #Fishy so I’m happy to share one of my favorites from the Monterey Bay Aquarium circa 2019 🐠 #photography #photographersunited #naturephotos #sciart

Today’s #FeatherFriday is brought to you by the state birds of my former and current home states. Can you name them? (Without cheating and looking at my bio. 🤪) #photography #photographersunited #birdphotography #naturephotos

On this day in 2023 I had just gotten home from my birthday trip to #Hawaii, where I: (1) completed my goal of visiting all 50 states before turning 30, and (2) got laid off by phone call from the new job I’d been at for 6 months. 🙃 #ThrowbackThursday #photography #photographersunited #naturephotos

Here are some majestic elephants to break up the political chaos on your feed, and it’s even a shot for #WildlifeWednesday and #BlackAndWhiteWednesday all in one. 🐘🇰🇪 #photography #wildlifephotography #photographersunited #sciart

Another shot from Northern Ireland, I really love the mood in this one and it’s never done well on social media. What do you think? #photography #photographersunited #traveltuesday #moodyvibes

A cool spot in Northern Ireland that you may also recognize from Game of Thrones #photography #alphabetchallenge #weekfforfilm #photographersunited #traveltuesday #landscapes #nature

I’ve been informed that I’m not allowed to post about my babymoon trip without a bump photo so you get exactly one bump photo. 👶🏝️ She’s officially scheduled to make her debut on the 25th! It’s getting real. 😬

We had a blast spending my birthday at the San Diego Zoo yesterday! Although I’m definitely feeling it today, walking 12,000 steps at 36 weeks pregnant is no joke haha. Here’s to 32 — it’s going to be a big one! 🥂 🎂

Gotta squeeze in one last adventure before becoming parents! Birthday + babymoon weekend by rail. 🚂 #choochoo #amtrak #bucketlist @gruthar.bsky.social

Celestial events count, right? #AlphabetChallenge #WeekEforEvents #photography #astrophotography #eclipse

Blue birbs on BlueSky for #FeatherFriday 🪶 #birds #photography #nature

I couldn’t decide what to post today so I’m inventing #ThunderThursday and sharing my all time best bolt. (And I guess it’s from last year so it also counts for #ThrowbackThursday.) ⚡️ #photography #stormchasers #weather

Sharing my favorite waterfall for #WaterfallWednesday! Chapman Falls located within Devil’s Hopyard State Park in #Connecticut. #photography #landscapes #nature

Here is a Mount #Denali sunset. For reasons. 🏔️ #photography #alaska #landscapes

Today is apparently #NationalSquirrelDay so I have no choice but to share this masterpiece 🐿️ #photography #wildlife #animals

Good morning, BlueSky! Here are a few of my favorite sunrises to break through the darkness and fear filling our feeds this morning. And an obligatory shout out to our incredible #NationalParks that I sincerely hope make it through the next four years unscathed. 🌄 #photography #sunrise #landscapes
