#BlueskyArtShow #Wood #Photography An empty stock barn at the historic Illinois State Fairgrounds in Springfield, IL USA.

Sunlight streams through the wooden slats of an unoccupied stock barn. The sun and shadows pattern the dirt floor, and are fairly random compared to the repetition of the slats of the wooden stall doors.

My previous employer made braille photocopies.

An image of a sign that reads "Tornado Shelter Area" which includes braille at the bottom. The piece of paper is a photocopy, so there is no actual braille. But it looks like it.

#BlueSkyArtShow #Holiday #photography #dogs Every year I make a Christmas card in Photoshop featuring my dogs. 2024 was a favorite. It also felt like a corner was turned that year, because all the passion I put into my Photoshop art was now easily surpassed by AI. I'm still sad, it's a loss for me.

Adorable little swarthy purple button mushrooms. No idea what they are, but the color was different. Guesses at ID welcome, I have no intention of eating these 🤢. Central Minnesota in wood mulch.

Three lavender-colored button mushrooms are erupting out of a bed of shredded wood mulch. Very little of the fat little stems are visible -- they are white.

This is a crazy addition that will dominate the White House grounds. Maybe that's the point? Overshadow the White House.

Unfortunately it's a simple cellphone photo taken out of a moving car window, but it was such a stunning sunrise that who cares? From May 3, 2025. #photography #landscapes

The beginnings of a sunrise illuminate some low clouds with a frosting of red. It's still dark out, and the clouds and trees are gloomy and neutral, contrasting with the bright color of the sunrise. There's a pond mid-foreground, and low fog is rising off the surface of the water, giving the entire scene an ethereal look.

A single cedar waxwing sits in a serviceberry tree and snacks on berries. In this photo, the waxwing is caught at the exact moment it is tossing a berry into its mouth.
