"Does She Remember Sophie Scholl?” This is my piece that is part of the “Women Leading The Change” exhibit at the Brenda McMahon Gallery (now through end of March). In honor of all the relentless and courageous women on this International Women's Day.

Why would I ever want to live anywhere else again - when my days start like this? #stpetefl #floridalife #expat #expatlife #sunrise #photohour #birdoftheday #greatblueheron

Take the time to watch the sunrise or birds or the birds at sunrise. It may fill your heart with joy, hope, strength. #mondaymorning #birds #sunrise #Florida

Before Monday Morning Sunrise in #StPeteFL

Here are enshrined the longing of great hearts... This photo, I took 19 years ago at the #Brooklyn Main Library when I still lived in the neighborhood comes to my mind most often - so I thought I'd share it with you.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #StareDown, birds looking right at you. Here's a #SnowyEgret looking right at you from #Florida. #photohour #birdphotography #wildlifephotography #stpetefl

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #StareDown, birds looking right at you, the Alt theme is #Gulls, any Gull will do.

Before sunrise during Monday Morning powerwalk… and only 3 C degrees! Too cold for Florida. Least amount of people I’ve seen during Monday Morning Sunrise.

Just discovered my biggest neighbor - apparently there's been a giant #gator living in Booker Lake in Kenwood, St. Pete. Now I know... and got the chance to take a few photos... #wildlife #wildlifephotography #photohour #stpetefl

Right now in St Pete, Florida. Is this for real?

I’m in!

SCOOP: 404 Media is publishing a version of the user guide for ELITE, a tool Palantir made for ICE which brings up dossiers on individual people and provides a “confidence score” of their address. The full user guide here:

All across the country, Americans are organizing to defend our neighbors and demand ICE OUT! Remember, you have rights. We will MELT ICE, dismantle DHS, and protect our neighbors. We will not concede the power of the people!

Very intense to watch. Many feelings and thoughts. This is the time we live in - time where we watch real people dying in a music video. It shouldn’t have come to this. But here it is - and we can’t look away or pretend it’s not happening. Any of it. Bruce Springsteen youtu.be/GDaPdpwA4Iw?...

Do you believe there's a benevolent spirit watching over you, an ancestor, an angel, a spirit animal, a familiar... Do you wish there was? Photographed during bird count for #TampaBay National Wildlife Refuges. #LaughingGull #photohour #gulls #natureheals

Sunrise with the birds. Best way to start the day… #stpetefl #floridalife #goodmorning #mondaymorningsunrise #happierplace

15 minutes until sunrise (Only 5 C in St Pete this morning!)

Sad and heavy days. Being in nature helps regain some strength. Sometimes being alone and quiet is what is needed. Knowing we’re not alone but can support each other through these challenging times is ultimately what gets me through. #littleblueheron #photohour #birdphotography #artheals

Our writers read a lot in 2025. Here are a few books that stood out. www.newyorker.com/books/book-c...

Together with my Sunday zoom yoga group, I just finished 108 sun salutations. Before we started, I wasn’t even sure if I could remember each move in order every time or physically manage. Now I did all of them, I feel empowered, calm, centered and ready for a good, dynamic year.
