This collection of pictures I took back in October. All of these pictures were taken in my backyard. I’m down to 3 rows of folders to curate int he 2019 backlog now. That is a completely meaningless statistic to you, but it is pretty big milestone for me.
I took several pictures of my sad, pathetic, battered, old trombone. These are the ones that didn’t make the big cut for the big show on Monday. That poor trombone should probably go in the trash, but I worry that the trash man wouldn’t even accept it. +++++++ This is… Read More »The Numbing Sensation of Everything

You know, I thought that the hatred that some of the men I know, the ones that suffer from toxic masculinity, have for flower pictures was borderline obscene. That was I encountered the irrational hatred of my wasp photography. They are fascinating, beautiful creatures. Learn to love them. Unless you’re… Read More »White Anglo Saxon Protestant
Day 3 of working from home. I thought I was going to talk about how a positive of working from home was how soft my feet are becoming. But I’ll cover that at a later date. Today’s positive about working from home is that Naima has actually started to hang… Read More »I Always Credit My Enemy
