Some nice moss and lichen. And a few pine needles. #ForestFriday #FungiFriends #Moss #Lichen

We tried baking those croissants that come in a tin. They were... not fantastic. So now I'm considering baking croissants from scratch. Just considering, mind you. I hope I won't actually try it. Here's some art made by an insect for #InsectThursday

I just tried the "key points" AI feature in Notes on a couple of my poems. The analysis was so on point I'm thinking the poems must be too trivial. AI doesn't only threaten creativity, it also threatens the exploration and appreciation of art.

I can't believe I forgot to block "magic mushrooms" as a hashtag on the Forest Floor feed right from the start. It's done now, and I removed some offending posts from the feed. Here's a velvet bolete as compensation. #Fungi #FungiFriends #ForestFloor

We can't grow tulips because of the deer, so I buy bouquets instead. Today is my birthday and I bought tulips yesterday to celebrate 💐, but they haven't opened yet. Here's a photo from 2020 instead. #TulipsOnTuesday #Bloomscrolling #Bloomsky #Tulips #Flowers

Yet another blackbird for #BirdOfTheDay since today's prompt is #WinterSurvivors Many years ago we made a bird feeder for apples (a plank with screws stickin up through it) and strapped it to the patio railing. The railing was very slippery, so we wrapped it in plastic which was less slippery.

Reposting my first ever post/photo on this account for #ValentinesDay and #BlueSkyArtShow #Wood I hope you can see the heart shape in the middle.

It almost looks like rock, but it's frosty weathered wood. #BlueSkyArtShow #Wood #Abstract

Today is going to be a bad day for me, but at least it's Friday which means there will be lots of forest and fungi photos on Bluesky! #FungiFriday

It's election year in Sweden and I've started e-mailing people. Yesterday two of our political parties about their sucking up to the right wing extremists, today a couple of journalists about their sloppy journalism. #ADoorableThursday #Thursgate #AlphabetChallenge #WeekFforFramed

Here's a photo for #WindowsOnWednesday and #Abstractia #Repetition (even though it's borderline). Taken at the Ramnäs forge in 2013. #Abandoned #Industrial #EastCoastKin

Orange juice has gone up, eggs have gone up, coffee, chocolate, butter has gone up. Even bread has gone up. That's breakfast costing 50% more than a few years ago, and a lot of it is due to climate change. Here's a closeup of an old oak. #ThickTrunkTuesday #Abstract #ClimateChangeIsReal

Everyone is posting such brilliant and varied photos for #BirdOfTheDay Meanwhile most of my bird photos are of mallards. #StareDown #MallardMonday

In the foothills near Sarek, Swedish Lappland. The peak to the left is Soagoalgge, about 820 m above sea level. #MountainMonday

One More (maybe) from @MilwaukeeArt from October last year. The opportunities for compositions never end. I was at a photography workshop later this same weekend and was told, "If I see a camera on the ground, I know it's Lauri's." #EastCoastKin #Stunday

#StunDay January 2021 looking downriver on the Nechako. The river water being warmer than the air, sent up tendrils of steam nicely highlighted by the morning sun.

Here's a rune stone (SÖ88) for #StsndingStoneSunday It's a memorial for someone called Gälv and his brother Ulvvid, raised by Gälv's sons. Most rune stones are memorials like this, simply stating who raised it for whom. #RuneStone #Runes #Sweden

We had a bit of snow in January 2015. This was the jogging trail, I decided not to go. #ForestFriday #Snow #Sweden #Forest

I was wondering why I had half a dozen photos of this particular tree trunk. Then I zoomed in and looked closer. #InsectThursday

In the shed at my parents summer cottage. One of my all time favourite photos, if I may say so myself. 2012, iPhone 3G #WindowsOnWednesday #Photography #EastCoastKin

New theme for #Abstractia #ArtChallenge starts Mon 02 Feb with the prompt #Rust ends 08 Feb. All #Art mediums welcome, #artisitic nudity okay, no NSFW or AI & use ALT Text for inclusivity. follow the feed: bsky.app/profile/weal... engage by liking, reposting & commenting on other posts.

A lot of my intentional photos are more on the abstract side, but they don't easily get as much appreciation as fungi or a lucky shot of a nice sunset, so I haven't been posting them a lot. I hope the #Abstractia art challenge will help me change that. This week's prompt is #Rust Join in!

I told my husband about today's bird prompt, and he sent me this. He isn't on Bluesky and can't post it himself iPhone + birding telescope, November 2025. #BirdOfTheDay #ShortLeggedBirds

Sunset? Nope, just the ethylene plant lighting up the cloudy sky. #clouds #blueskyartshow

It's cold out, and it's Friday.

Happy #ForestFriday! Here's an arctic birch forest just below the tree line at Grövelsjön, Sweden. I'm back to not talking about (foreign) politics here. I'll save my energy for joining climate protests in Stockholm, because that tree line is moving up. #Forest #Hiking #ClimateChange

From today's afternoon walk, at about 15:30 #AlphabetChallenge #WeekDforDramatic #Sunset #EastCoastKin

I just noticed this (new?) art challenge, #Abstractia by @wealiearts.bsky.social Sounds fun! I have lots of photos that are more about the textures and shapes than the subject. Should count as abstract, right? This week's prompt is #industrial #IronworkThursday #Abandoned #EastCoastKin

I just found out it's #WhimsyWednesday

Happy Monday! Here's a literal blue sky for #BlueSkyMonday Photo taken in March last year, when winter was turning into spring. Near Stockholm, Sweden.

Good morning all, have a lovely Sunday and start from the new week. Slowly start the camera from my phone working again😅so here is a well-known view from yesterday photo bombed by the gulls ✨️ #Stunday #EastCoastKin #zeldenzomooigezien #water #reflections #mobilephonephotography

Trying to remind myself that sunlight exists, after three months of nearly constant murky weather during the darkest time of the year. It's been an unusually dismal winter, and it's not over yet. #stunday

Just so you know, Sweden hates that turd just as much as you guys in the US do, and not just because of the Greenland thing. Today's murder is among the top headlines 💔 Stay strong and keep fighting! He can't go on forever.

Reading an old Swedish cookbook called The princesses cookbook (1950's edition). The recipe for french omelette says to mix the eggs, butter and salt with a silver fork. I guess you can't use a stainless steel fork if you're a princess. Here's an old gate for #ThursGate and #ADoorableThursday

Local news from Sweden: The ice is really good on the car test tracks in Arjeplog Collectors from around the world flock to buy items from the closing Abu Garcia factory in Svängsta The most popular baby names in 2025 were Vera (girls) and Noah (boys) (Here's yesterday's mallards without zoom)

Today I'm sowing the first chilli seeds of the season 😊 Four varieties so far. I heat up the sowing compost in the oven to get rid of gnats. It's not good for the soil microbes, but the seedlings won't be in sowing compost long enough for it to matter. #gardening #chillies
