tenderly i look upon the one who is my puppy (she's almost twelve) and will always be my puppy pictured here, fittingly, in soft focus #vss365 #tenderly #poetry #photography #dogs

photo of my blue heeler sitting in the grass. she has a double mask and a peppery coat with fawn brown legs. her tail is white with dark rings. once a couple of little kids saw her and one whispered to the other, what is that?

showers refresh soul's green holding light again #haiku #poetry #haiga #photography #photohaiga #flowers

photo i took during a heavy shower: small white petaled flowers with large green wet leaves. Shot is HDR - so multiple captures have been merged to show a wider range of color.

More fun with eerie effects... #poetry #haiku #naturephotography #photography #art

my photo with a fish-eye lens effect: the distortion makes a leafy bush appear to have a haunting face - dark hollow eyes, a nose cavity, and a gaping mouth. Haiku reads: nature's harrowing/disdained and immolated//her ghosts are coming. Photo, fx, and poem by me ~

in the mood to make eerie art today (it helps) #vss365 #lurch #poetry #haiku #senryu #photography #birds #art

photo of a dark bird sitting alone in a dark, leafless tree. i used a toy camera filter to make the pic shadowy and forboding. the corners are also dark - adding to the tone of isolation and narrowing. haiku reads: lurching/ (the alone) // a lens closes

i am an interloper here confronted by nature outfacing my kind estranged, we, long ago but it is healing to linger, eons consumed as something at my skull's base reminisces of a lost home #vss365 #consuming #poetry #photography #nature

photo from one of my nature walks. a rabbit, on alert - ears up, glancing at me - pictured in tall grass

not happiness to see me

a robin sitting in a tree - not looking thrilled at the prospect of me lingering to take pictures

Mariana Trench Everest depths eternal night creatures there fluoresce despite never having seen the sun the moon the stars in this dark place that light doesn't reach there is Light to be found upon such Hope i tether my soul #vss365 #tether #poetry #photography #art

photo of mine of the sun reflected in a puddle on dark, stony paving - i put a color enhancement filter on the pic to make the blues of the sky more vivid - so, to me, the pic looks like a galaxy in the greater universe

From my nature hike today...startled a couple of daisies. #photography #nature #wildflowers

photo of mine of a couple of daisies situated so that they look like a pair of eyes - long-lashed and taken off guard, set against a leafy green face.

The baby bunny that lives under my back porch has found the blueberries I put out. Pic shot through the window of where I am supposed to be working. (I am so not working.)

Pic of cute baby bunny munching on blueberries. You can just see the bottom of my back porch that was screened at the bottom - where the rabbits have foisted a doorway.

When the corners keep coming, one can only keep on keeping on... #poetry #photography #blackandwhitephotography #poetrycommunity

added a poem i wrote and posted here july 21, 2025 to a b and w photo of a brick corner. Poem reads: Sometimes purpose/ is just rounding/ the corner. /Corner after corner/ after corner, / hoping each time/
to sight/ the final stretch. //

Photo of the sky. There are dark clouds with a heart-shaped parting filled with light.

haiku reads: steamed car windows/dark clouds glower/a traced heart lights

i wonder how often the invisible becomes perceivable as gulls fly a #phantom shimmer overhead only zoomed in does the powder blue sky show their drifting constellation daytime stars my eyes tear to glimpse them i grapple with my lens to evidence them but the struggle pays off when i do #vss365

photo framed by a house eave and tree limbs. beyond is a clear powder blue sky

same shot, super zoomed in - barely visible are little white specs

My sister travels. Neighbors had some fun. She came home to this.

Yup. Life-size cutouts of the twins from THE SHINING in her kitchen.

More storms and then... I don't know if it's a heart or a smile, but, either way, I'll take it.
