Today’s milkweed is a Sunday morning mop head. Not in a hurry to get out of its bathrobe, just hanging out with a cup of hot coffee, watching the world go by.

Good morning everyone

Good morning Bluesky! This little ruffled miracle is still blooming this morning, here in the mid-November north. I celebrate its beauty and tenacity. And I give thanks that it has graced my life. 💜 I wish you a day filled with beauty and grace.

Bullfrog of the day! Sunday, 16 Nov 2025

I love the beauty of the ground carpeted with fallen leaves.🍁🍂

This is what Jupiter looks like in the infrared. Its hot, lower atmosphere shining through the cooler cloud layers above. You show me Jupiter and I'll show you a planet that wants you dead.

Today’s goal……

Could I but ride indefinite, As doth the meadow-bee, And visit only where I liked, And no man visit me, And flirt all day with buttercups, And marry whom I may, And dwell a little everywhere, Or better, run away -- Emily Dickinson #Photography #ImageAndVerse #ClassicMono #BNWmacro #EastCoastKin

Moving slow this morning, i may still got it but my recovery time is apparently not what it used to be.

Sometimes you don't need an entire diatribe that fills the entire sky. Sometimes you just need a note to let you know that everything is good and you still matter to the Universe...

Back in my old haunts, this place has been around forever!

Pissed off /fired up women Come on folks. Men pitch in, but who cuts the kids fingernails? Women perform the vast majority of unpaid domestic/care work (cooking, cleaning, childcare), limiting their paid employment, education, and leisure. #fiberart #pissedoff #listentowomen #women #quiltsky

A spiral galaxy, observed with the Hubble Space Telescope in the COSMOS survey. It is at redshift 0.45 (lookback time 4.83 billion years) with coordinates (150.51829, 2.36945). 53 volunteers classified this galaxy in Galaxy Zoo: Hubble.

For this week's #BlueSkyArtShow theme #Bright, one of my sunburst paintings. If you look real close, there's a little figure sitting under the tree in the corner, enjoying the view. This 12x16 acrylic on canvas is from 2023. #pourpainting #contemporaryart #abstract #landscape #lake #sunset

In anything less than true darkness, the "Phantom Galaxy" slips away like a ghost, its delicate light too faint for many amateur telescopes. The core may harbor a rarity: an intermediate-mass black hole! Image credit: my tiny telescope, about 4 hours of imaging. #science #astronomy 🔭👩🏾‍🔬
