Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

Our veranda, eight years ago, when the world suddenly turned into Marshmallow Land. Lovely to look at, not so much fun with the shoveling. Beauty always has its price. The cats were not amused. 😅 #JanuArty2026 #Soft #Snow #Winter #Urban #Photography #B&W #Monochrome #EastCoastKin #Oslo #Norway

A congregation of magpies have lived on our property for years. My office window looks out on the backyard, with a view to a moss-covered outcrop of stone. The magpies bury tidbits under the mosses, then a local squirrel sneaks in, finds and steals them. The magpies just don't get it.😅 #MagpieMonday

The Madonna in the Meadow - Raphael Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna This painting taught me that photographs don't do justice to oil paintings. The colors must be experienced 'live' to be fully appreciated. The cobalt blue and scarlet red left me stunned. #BlueSkyMonday #Blue #Painting #Art #Wien
