For the cities that had the privilege of seeing regular programming taken away. This is for you. See it here, hit the buttons. It matters.

Still here! Must have been all the driving today. Maybe next time the Rapture is declared I will float to the sky. Are you still here too? 😇 #rapture

Tomorrow I’m making a decision on how I enjoy these spaces and for me, it’s a big one. 🦋 For now, the welcome rain on Autumn Equinox. 🍁 #naturesky

Bring the children back home!

Checking out some music 🎶 and came across this rendition with Sinead O’Connor. Possibly my favorite song… ‘Mother’ #musicsky

I think I want to be known as the girl who listens to John Prine by the firepit with a Red & White Genesee. I just laugh, cry, smile alot and reflect. So many songs, lyrics 🎶 I could share. Sometimes you need to just be… #healing #johnprine #musicsky

Good morning #bluecrew 🦋

Yep. September is my favorite month. The songs 🎶 not so bad either. #musicsky

Lyin’ Ted Cruz on CNN making it up as he goes.

A scene of respect and display of sadness right after 9/11. I stood and stared at these painted tiles for a long time and quietly cried for so many reasons. #neverforget

Thank you @stulndn.bsky.social 🙏

I’m excited to present my firstborn monarch. 🌝 During my summer of healing I decided to take a chance on butterfly raising. Helping them have a chance to emerge from predators. You can see the empty chrysalis of it’s metamorphosis. I will set it free soon. #butterfly 🦋💕

President Zelenskyy DO NOT FOLD tomorrow. You are the K❤️. #bluecrew supports you, your land and your people. Best wishes. 🦋💙🙏

One to see!

I covered The Black Crowes and Chicago recently. Here’s the print piece 📰 Still loving that I work for a newspaper in this capacity. Since 2007. #photography #EastCoastKin #photojournalist

Ohhhh yes I have been wallowing. My heart has been in so much turmoil this year. Like many of us. 😣 Thanks for this note Robert. 💙🦋

When Trump says that the war never would have happened and Putin agrees. Shall we remember this. How impressed Trump was calling Putin a GENIUS!! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022...

Some beauty and the wonder of nature for you. You know, when our minds need a rest from… 🦋

On the grounds of Iolani Palace, Honolulu. A peaceful moment in the banyan trees. #travelsky #eastcoastkin #trees

He stamps out all that is sacred. Our National Parks 🏞️ must be protected. Can we impeach the unfit for office goon ASAP?

I’m old enough to remember that we used lighters for encores, ballads and such. Check out the drummer who led the crowd to light their 📱 torch. Love Chicago, founded in the 60’s. #musicsky #chicago #concert

Bring it on South Park! 🙌

The last time I photographed Chicago for the paper 📰 was 2017. Tonight I meet them again for their current tour in Bethlehem PA. #musicsky #presspass #concert #photography

Go see the world! Would love you to join me sometime. I have things to show you. 🦋 #Explorewithme #tourhost #worldview #photocoteriestravels #travelsky

Out of the darkness. Ready to cover The Black Crowes at Musikfest for the paper 📰 taking baby steps but this was important to get the groove moving again. 🦋 Tomorrow is Chicago!

Getting back to work tonight Part 2. I’m covering the Happiness Bastards tour / The Black Crowes for the paper 📰 Photo & Review. I saw the opener in Nashville, here’s a taste of the show on my channel. 🎶 🐦‍⬛ youtu.be/BZTa4gcrcPI?...

Today I left the hospital on the day before my final infusion of 28 days straight. It was beautiful to see and walk carefully through the freshly blooming Rodale Institute Sunflower Gardens at Anderson Campus. I’m taking my healing one day at a time and learning to not push through boundaries. 1/2 🌻

Another re-share while healing. It was my NYE ‘25 greeting while so many of us were facing a terrible outcome. We still are. I need to get back to nature again. 📷 Looking for physical strength and I have 2 more infusions to go. #bluecrew #eastcoastkin

Another re-share while healing post. I did a Reiki Session yesterday. My practitioner told me my throat is ‘closed’ and I need to exercise my creativity. I have buried it lately. Portrait work is meaningful to me. Capturing essence for others is pretty cool. 🦋 #photography #portrait #artist

Another re-share while healing. Unfortunately I am missing my planned backroads tour from the Poconos to New Hampshire with the teardrop camper this year. I know I will have the strength next summer. For now, here’s a cool discovery from last year. #photography #EastCoastKin #roadtrip

Another re-share while healing post. I’ve been deep diving my study into herbs and cleansing toxins via detox lately. Today I took a big shot of my garden oregano made into a tea. They say it’s a powerful anecdote for Lyme’s. #mothernature #detox

This evening our city has seen a devastating act of senseless intentions. Four souls taken, one is fighting for life. NYC 😒

The how to guide of Crimes against Humanity continues.

Since I’m still in healing stages, I figured I will post a past upload for newer peeps to see for this week… need to keep engaging and keep BlueSky strong. #bluesky

Welcome to America; where our president is publicly saying nice things about, giving immunity to, and suggesting a possible pardon for a well-connected child sex trafficker. But I’m sure he’s got a good reason.

…and so it begins. I’ll be at the Infusion Center for 4 weeks to fight the Lyme Disease I’ve been battling over 2 years now. I cannot walk at the moment more than a few steps due to swelling and pain. Right wrist and hand are in a scary place too. Last night was extreme. #lymedisease #fightinghard

Thank you Stu. Your support means everything. Treatment starts tomorrow. I’m going to beat this. There is no other choice.

Thank you Stu. 🩷

I ran a views piece for my newspaper I correspond for. My image of Yusef Salaam holding the paper up of Trump’s ad over the ‘Central Park 5’ story did not make it into print version, although it did get put online. Bums me out because he has diminished the press. I wanted it to lead the story. 📰

‘Instant Karma’ written by John Lennon and recorded in 1970 by The Beatles. This edition is a part of my personal travel photography gallery. #musicsky #lyrics #thebeatles Shine on! 🌖✨🌞

Social media break this past week. Came back on today. My heart breaks from this awful situation we are faced with. It doesn’t make sense. A manipulated election. He should be is prison, enlighten us Elon, how the hell did you get us here? #bluecrew #resist

Sweet!

#fungifriends #mushrooms #foraging Yes, so much this. 🍄‍🟫🦋

I’m an unfortunate victim of a bastard tick bite almost 3 years ago. I’m fighting hard. Today I am full blown pain affected. Yesterday was fine. Swelling and struggling, I may go to ER for the 1st time. Just read a great article on the subject. Be vigilant. Do not get this disease. #lymedisease

A couple more pictures of Melissa to compliment my last post (taken at different times). 2nd Ave Station NYC. 🚇 #photography #EastCoastKin #bwphotography #buskers #nyc

I ❤️ NY So, I got to my 2nd Ave stop and Melissa Elledge was there. She buskers with her accordion frequently at the 1st Ave exit. She has been playing there since 2009. This song is “Old Town Road” by Lil Nas X. I photographed her a few years ago too. 🦋🌝🚊 #musicsky #nyc

Hanging tight with my dear friend Bob at the fabulous B&H BILD Expo Conference. On the way to some after party fun to catch up and network with more industry players. #bhphoto #nikonusa #eastcoastkin #tutuguy

Manhattan is my 2nd home other than camp. I decided this time to re-work my train game, especially when bringing an extra bag. I was always F train to Uptown and West Side. With Lyme attacks, I definitely need elevator / escalator services so for East Village stops it’s the L to 123. #travelsky #map
