Happy Earth Day @bsky.app We are all just visiting this place and must leave it better than we found it. #earthday #photographers #photographersofbluesky #macroPhotography #flowers #photoOfTheDay #naturePhotography @bsky.art

A few days to get away from the noise. Seems the noise follows wherever you go, but it was at least muted. Scenes like this bring some peace and quiet. #photography #galvestonisland #sunsets #gulfofmexico #humansofbluesky #photographersofbluesky @galveston.bsky.social @galvestoncom.bsky.social

Galveston from the balcony. My darling wife deserves a fun getaway for her birthday. And a time to get away from the noise of the day. @galvestoncom.bsky.social @gulfofmexico.bsky.social

Meanwhile, we're a cold, shivering, winter wonderland in Dallas. #photography #blackandwhite #ice #winter #snow

Jan 6th is a reminder to me: cowardice spreads like wildfire… this country needs leaders who are willing to tell the people the truth, not pander to lies

"Sincerely yours..." An eager heart awaits. #photographersofbluesky #hearts #love #blackandwhitephotography

It's 2025 for some of you, still 2024 for the rest of us. Whatever kind of year you've had, be resolved in knowing that we can choose our response to circumstances. For good or bad. For me, I choose to believe that where we are headed is far more exciting than where we've been. Happy 2025 #bluesky

Who's with me?

Here's another recreated "postcard of the past". I loved those grainy, watercolor-type postcards as a kid traveling around the western US back in the '60s. This one is Denton County Courthouse, Denton, TX. #photography #nikon #postcards #photographersofbluesky

I always loved the look of "old time postcards" and doing my best to recreate. Palo Duro State Park, TX. #bluephotgraphy #naturephotography #landscapephotography

If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Seems like a good day to take a deep breath. "There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.' - Hamlet #oregon #relax #landscapes

Ok folks...gone from Twitter/X, and glad to be here. Give me a follow if you are so inclined. It would do my old-ish heart good.

Since I'm catching up on posts, here's a couple shots from the April (was it that long ago) total eclipse over Dallas. People told me I'd be moved by the event. I poo-poo'd them. Then I witnessed it. And I feel the goose bumps all over again when I see these. #totaleclipse #Dallas #photography
