Our holiday is being spent in Hawai'i Volcano National Park. Custom stained glass, and our State bird, the Nene. It is endangered, protected, and endemic. #nationalparks #nature #naturephotography

Tuesday has given me the first glimmer of hope in a long time. The full moon energy has fully charged me up! Let's go!

Same. #AlsoTiredOfWaitingForTheEPSTEIN_Files

Wandering through the wildflower garden while visiting family, I spotted a sweet Hummingbird. #photography #Hummingbird #birds

MAGA "deep state" cultists have ratioed him on his own platform. Excellent.

Time to disassociate and bake some sourdough. #mentalhealthbreak #keepsmefromscreamingintothevoid #copingmechanism

Timothy Snyder has fled the country.

In years to come, the people who did this will be the ones who will go to jail.

Trump rambled on Truth Social about how much he hates this portrait, currently hanging in Colorado. It would be a shame if it were posted EVERYWHERE. #dumpytrump #Colorado

Peoplee who needs to hhearr this never do.

Participating in the #blueskyartshow #thejourney with one of my favorite walks in #Hawai'i. The Old Pali road which winds up the Ko'olau mountains to the top of the Pali Lookout.

It's spring. This little one walked right up to me. Melted my heart.

Over 100,000 seats are up for grabs in 2025 — governors, mayors, city councils, state representatives, judges, school boards, and more. Taking back our power starts now.

These are e most important #s for the Dems. They should be tracking all local media and influencers in these states and reposting it everywhere The economic pain tariffs can indlict on red states need to be talked about more than anything else right now. It will flip voters.

@aoc.bsky.social: "Every time you see Tom Homan, every time you see Kristi Noem... understand that they are taking attention, focus, dollars, and real resources away from actual drug enforcement, trafficking enforcement, and actually going after and trying to investigate really harmful activity."

love this @rokhanna.bsky.social We need more proposals like this that co-opt the chaos Please share off line as well !!!

Remember in the early days of the internet how it screamed every time we logged on? We should have paid attention to that.

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are waging an attack on American consumers — we won't stand quietly by.

The White House official social media releasing this today? What!? When will the "he's only joking" people finally stop making excuses for him? I for one, will never bend the knee. #nokings #treason #traitor

It's Natuonal Bird Day! From the Island of Hawai'i, 'Apapane and 'Amakihi. #nationalbirdday #photography #birds

Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The world’s richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

We had a terrible storm forcing me inside. Ugh, okay, I'll edit some photos from my last Big Island trip. 😆 I'iwi are endemic honeycreepers. They used to be on all Islands, but only survive on a few now. They are endangered and protected. Beautiful birds!

I switched to a slightly smaller lens to capture the lava lake forming within Kilauea crater. In the background you can hear the roar of Kilauea. The loud stuff is people walking and talking. #Hawaiivolcanonationalpark #kilauea #Pele #lava #photography

Kilauea's most recent eruption. From Hawaii Volvano National Park, shot by me ☺️ 💙 #volcano #eruption #Pele

If you still have FB, check to see if META followed Trump's account for you. I have never, and will never, follow him.Yet, here we are. I had to unfollow and block the account. Go check if META did the same to your account. #META #unfollowtrump #oligarchy

What would Martin Luther King Jr. urge us to do as we celebrate his life and legacy? Press On.

I'm going to post this video every day — especially #MLKDay — so we never forget INSURRECTIONIST TRUMP!

We came to Big Island yesterday. Pele appeared this morning. This is mid-day. Tonight, when it's darker, we'll see Pele's full power. #volcano #Pele #volcanonationalpark #kilauea

Red crested Cardinal walking into the house through the doggie door. What's up little guy? #birds

Saw this little guy out on my nature walk today. Hang in there buddy, you're all of us.

Did you know there’s a site to search for starter packs of people to follow? Built by @mubashariqbal.com blueskydirectory.com/starter-pack...

Red skies at morning...a storm is coming. We may not like it, but we have to prepare. 💙

MAGA who said project 2025 wasn't Trump's plan...he's appointed another Project 2025 architect.

Patiently waiting over here for @pascalispunk.bsky.social

Photographing this, I felt power. The rising sun at my back, facing the full moon and the world's largest sheild volcano, Mauna Loa, Lava flowing, creaking, grinding, inside Kilauea crater. Kilauea is queit now as Pele sleeps. Waiting patiently for her to awaken again. #photography #fullmoon #lava

From earlier this year, a Lovely, black sand beach, Big Iskand, Hawaii. #photography #longexposure

Stole this image floating around here....💙 MAGA are deeply unhappy people. They have Truth Social but they come here because they're miserable. And they miss us 😉 Block and move on. Smother the fire, no oxygen.

I had a difficult 13 months. My sister passed away, and after avoiding C-19 for 3 years, I got it. Twice. I'm vaccinated so it wasn't too bad, but I did hit a slump. I think I'll be grabbing my camera more and more now. Thanks Bluesky. (Milky Way from a lava tube on Oahu) 💙

I just saw Micha talk about this on the clock app. "You can not change their mind even if you expose them to authentic information. Even if you prove that white is white and black is black, you still can not change the basic perception and the logic of behavior.” bigthink.com/the-present/...

I like it here! I've found so many great new people here. I don't know about other photographers, but I feel absolute joy while making images, and I really like sharing some of my favorites. This was a magical morning on Oahu. 💙

Just so we're on the same page: I proudly voted for Kamala Harris. Not only is she an intelligent, respectable, highly qualified woman, she listens. She and her policies could have done this country great good. The blunder of the century was not electing her to the White House.

A cotton candy morning near Rabbit Island, (Mānana.) While it does resemble a rabbit head, rabbits were released and raised here, causing untold damage. The practice finally stopped in the '70's. Now, it is an island seabird sanctuary, closed to humans. (Photo from my archives) 💙

We need global cooperation.

I'm not longer resisting the temptation to prepare, just in case, buy a little extra and put it up...anyone else feel the tug toward (I hate the word) "prepping" for the unknown about to descend on us?
