One of said outing(s) within this/the prior incredible #landscape & #geology #portraitphotography #portrait #windy #windswept #photography Part of #WHY we need to further protect/expand public lands & not hack 'em to bits for private greed/abuse & destruction #BLM #EastCoastKin #ECK #WestCoastKin
Abt this #landscape Had been #camping here/area 4 decades With it's #geology Knew we'd/I'd one day make #location #work of it as our #background #backdrop #ECK #landscapephotography #ArtYear #photography #WestCoastKin #desert #nature #EastCoastKin #wilderness I'll locate a few place 'em in comments!
Two of the three. The new, gargantuan Agent Of Chaos puppy is in the foreground. One of his elders in the back, patiently waiting for one cue or another to follow.
-Same #location (won't reveal where) & day. I had begun to truly #suffer from the spine/back issues that day. Nearly made it not happen. #Working was hard but we did #beautiful #timeless #photography both plain #landscapes & with a #humanbeing #being #human #forest #mountains #river #riparian #earth
I/we, of many #incredible #humans, have such a #remarkable #memories feed. A very #highaltitude #mountain #valley #river #riparian #setting was #exquisite for a #summer #cooling #WestCoastKin #ECK #ArtYear #HumansOfBluesky #ClassicMono #portraiture #EastCoastKin #naturelover #wanderlust #wilderness
Our 'alpha' who was raised from a puppy, a Standard Poodle but the 'unwanted' runt & only male of his litter, -is just this simply exquisite dog. He's been SO helpful & patient with these two rescue kids. He even gives tiny kiss-licks to their noses whenever they are at rest. He's head of household!
He was taken in by a shelter & groomers! looking as such. (He's our 2nd recent 'rescue' & she was sorely neglected too. Was HARD work & trained alongside of Military/Guard/Law & Service Dogs. 180° if ever; is now the happiest doggo I've ever known!) I'm certain of sentience in creatures. It's fun.
-Been BUSY w/this li'l fellow. Yes, he's still a Standard Poodle pup, approx 2yrs. After those quick yrs of neglect, life is little else than ENERGY & JOY! Lots of learning/training. He's a riot; requires lots of finding about our pack/family. -Fits perfectly & we'll keep his crazy smart soul alive.
It was one of actually quite a few, wild & heat/drought stressed yucca in southeastern Nevada, US that I'd found as incredibly interesting & stunning. It appeared to me that their blades' sharp edges were peeling off in fine threads. *as below, more in full*

-Not the greatest exposure (probably should have a go at it someday- perhaps without the triggering of a migraine) BUT we love it when the Bonneville Salt Flats are unrecognizable as when there's not a severe drought all winter, spring & summer...

13yrs ago, geez. My body's significantly degraded since. Yes, live for today; I had no idea how & what was coming but knew that it would. I'd already lost my esophagus/stomach to esophageal cancer & had been warned at least. Drove up the #WestCoast #PCH late reservations/no plans. Worked daily too.
I still inherently, I guess! #enjoy #tbt #ThrowBackThursday #TwentyYearsAgoToday #grins How #many #people #seeking my #representation #expression of #them #stuns & humbles me. #ArtYear #BNW #grayscale #monochrome #ECK #HumansOfBluesky #EastCoastKin #WestCoastKin #ClassicMono #portrait #mood #human

#RockinTuesday Had to pee & pulled over, scrambled thru & behind a thicket of Willow & Cottonwood. Lo & behold a cliff face beyond, down low- was informative. Yet to find this set in any spotting books. #EastCoastKin #ECK #WestCoastKin #ArtYear #MacroPhotography #Wanderlust #TheWildWest #TimeTravel
...I've been AWOL for 24hrs because... Le Mans is exquisite. Not always do my favorite makers, teams and/or drivers win (in three classes of specifications) -but there's always a great admiration for all of the podiums, not to mention having respect for every team's entry. HUZZAH!
