Warm October days, Fading sun warms the upstairs. The night brings us back. #haiku #poetry #dailyhaikuprompt - night chill

Pretty good moonrise tonight, too. October 5, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan. #moon #moonrise #photography #michigan #autumn #fall #art #mastoart

The great sunsets keep on rolling. This early fall weather has been spectacular! October 5, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan. #sunset #photography #michigan #autumn #fall #lake #water #art #sail #sailing #mastoart

We went from "we will deport the worst of the worst" to "we will deport anyone here illegally" to "we will round up anyone who looks wrong" to "people who live in cities are the enemy" essentially overnight.

My wife and I saw an amazing show last night, Troupe Vertigo with the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. They’re a small troupe of acrobats who performed amazing feats above and in front of the orchestra to the delight of a packed house. There is still beauty and […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Setting Sun with stripes and sunspots. Oct. 3, 2025. Wolverine Lake, #michigan. #photography #sunset #art #light #sun #sunspots #astrophotography #mastoart

How do I end up with hundreds and hundreds of photos of sunsets to sort through? Trying to catch the light, which is tricky when the Sun is setting and the light is constantly changing. These two were taken just a few seconds apart. They are both 55mm, f/10 […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

This evening's sunset. Quite a streak we're having. October 3, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan. #sunset #photography #michigan #autumn #fall #lake #water #art #mastoart

Thursday's sunset: one from the big camera. Just 654 more to sort through, a reminder that my chief photographic skill is sheer volume. October 2, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan. #sunset #photography #michigan #autumn #fall #lake #water #art #mastoart

I feel the #monsterdon crowd needs to know about this. #frogs #wrongfrogs #verywrongfrogs

That really was quite a sunset last night. October 1, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan. #sunset #photography #michigan #autumn #fall #lake #water #art #mastoart

Quite a surprise sunset peeking out from under the clouds to kick off October. October 1, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan. #sunset #photography #michigan #autumn #fall #lake #water #art #mastoart

It's not that I don't know how terrible the news is. It's just that I don't think my calling is to be one more voice telling you how terrible things are. Swan silhouettes. Sept. 30, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan. #bird #birds #swan #swans #photography […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Everything is terrible in the news, but I caught a surprise burst of aurora last night off my porch, so the world itself remains an amazing place. Don’t ever let anybody tell you different. 8:32 pm, September 30, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan. #aurora […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

That was a pretty good September Sunday. Slept in, took the MG TD for a drive, stopped by a classic-car cruise, watched the Detroit Lions win, caught the sunset, and then watched a truly terrible movie on #monsterdon. Entirely satisfactory. Sept. 28, 2025 […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

I want “Kaiju Cows, The Movie!” #monsterdon #thefoodofthegods #foodofthegods

I find the rat-flood scene to be less plausible than the electrified fence. It takes a lot for me to find something to be less plausible than that electric fence. #monsterdon #foodofthegods #thefoodofthegods

I always look for the good in these movies. Marjoe Gortner’s Jeep looks like it would be fun to drive. Also, nice shots of the ferry ride. I did not expect them to be the best part of the movie, but they were nice. #monsterdon #foodofthegods #thefoodofthegods

I’m not sure why I expected better of this movie. I saw the poster beforehand. I had fair warning. #monsterdon #foodofthegods #thefoodofthegods

I don’t think he’s going to make it to Chicago. #monsterdon #foodofthegods #thefoodofthegods

Is this Clifford's origin story? #Monsterdon

As a man who greatly enjoyed “Yeti: Giant of the 20th Century” I find this electrified fence to be … um, scientifically implausible. #monsterdon #foodofthegods #thefoodofthegods

It suddenly occurs to me to wonder why discount-bin Harrison Ford brought his very pregnant wife to a remote wilderness island in an RV. No. No, I don’t think I want to know. #monsterdon #thefoodofthegods

I had low expectations for this one. Still, I may have set the bar too high. #monsterdon #thefoodofthegods

Director to writer: needs more ferry #monsterdon

They aren’t wasting any time in getting the #monsterdon animal attacks under way, I’ll say that for this movie. #foodofthegods

#monsterdon if your copy features a Lion roaring at the beginning and you suspect you might have gotten the wrong movie or something, fear not just give it a second or two;

Thursday evening brought another sunset full of wondrous reflections of light on water. Sept. 25, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan. #sunset #photography #reflections #art #abstract #abstractart #michigan #fall #autumn #mastoart

To celebrate the repair of the MG TD’s brake lights, I took it to the final Lingenfelter Cars & Coffee of the 2025 season. There we found another British sports car and formed a two-car British car section in the midst of a sea of Corvettes. Sept. 27, 2025 […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

Today's construction concern: after we replace our decrepit wood siding, where will the neighborhood woodpeckers dine in the future? September 26, 2025. Wolverine Lake, Michigan. #woodpecker #bird #birds #nature #photography #naturephotography #construction #michigan #fall #autumn #birdsofmastodon

They’re close to the truth of the matter here, which is simply that chicks can’t resist a hep cat with an MG TD. #car #cars #classiccars #mg #mgtd #movies #film #movieposters #posters #bmovies #weirdcarmastodon #lbc

BENNY: I am hungry and have never had a snackum. ME: You’ve been eating for two hours straight. BENNY: Never had a snackum. ME: Let’s recount. First, Monique gave you some peanut butter. BENNY: ME: Then you had dinner. That’s salmon and rice kibble, *plus* […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

I’m late with my review, but #TheAngryRedPlanet was a solid #monsterdon entry tonight. It was mostly terrible, but the bat-rat-spider-crab monster was a Grade A 1950s monster, the weird red Cinemagic process was pretty effective in creating a weird, alien […] [Original post on mastodon.social]

This end-credit music is quite a choice. Quite a choice, indeed. #monsterdon #theangryredplanet #angryredplanet
