Generally my generation wouldn't be caught dead working for the man, and generally I agree with them. Trouble is you got to have yourself an alternate plan. ~Ani Difranco

I think perhaps I will always hold a candle for you – even until it burns my hand. And when the light has long since gone …. I will be there in the darkness holding what remains, quite simply because I cannot let go. ~Ranata Suzuki #Memories #Photography #art #dad #PhotographersOfBluesky #Foto

This guy. This would have been 79 today, had he survived leukemia, a broken leg and both wrists, gangrene (in his leg), and a bone marrow transplant that wiped out his white blood cells, allowing the gangrene to spread. Alas, he died at 43… I was only 14. I took this pic with his camera when I was about 10ish in an airport in Puerto Rico (my first portrait!). When he died, my mum confiscated this picture, and wouldn’t hand it over until I was over 45 years old (the last time I saw her, before going no contact, weirdly enough). Being that it was not digital, I couldn’t do anything. I tried to fight for it, but she wasn’t budging (at one point she even tried to convince me I didn’t take it- gaslighting 101). I’m not sure what made her change her mind, finally, but I’m glad to have an image of my dad- the only one I have. I missed out on having a dad. Though honestly I really never got to know him- he much preferred spending time with my older brother, so my time with him was limited, and in very short spurts, and riddled with annoyance for my being too sensitive, not very intelligent (he had a genius level IQ- probably helpful when he invented the POS system, and I suck at math, and anything computer adjacent), so very young, and an invalid (which can be annoying to remember and accommodate when you’re perfectly healthy). He loved the ocean, and sailing though- something we have in common even now- which is part of the reason I live in Sarasota now. Anywho… at least he isn’t around to tell me what a massive disappointment I am as a human being any more.

Happy Birthday, Dad

I think I’m actually getting the hang of this bread making thing…🤔🤨 (as long as I ignore any & all specifically measured out recipes on the internet, & follow my intuition rather than silly things like perfectly measured out ingredients😏). #Food #Homemade #Bread #IMadeThis #FoodPorn #FoodSky #Baking

Do not seek the because - in love there is no because, no reason, no explanation, no solutions. ~Anaïs Nin Just wanted to post a simple shot I took of flowers in my garden; I just like the airiness and whimsy of this capture. #Flowers #Art #Photography #PhotographersOfBluesky #BloomScrolling #eck

Question: “Buy local honey.” …Wouldn’t it be better to not buy and consume honey, but switch to agave or maple syrup, so as not to steal much needed food supply for bees? Isn’t it similar to drinking cows’ or goats’ milk, where you’re taking from the young and from the winter reserves?

All I heard was an unearthly silence Apart from the violence, explode in my head Where all at once was this moment of beauty No more since it slew me, no never again ~Flogging Molly #Monochrome #ClassicMono #Photography #Art #ECK #PhotographersOfBluesky #Sunflower #BloomScrolling #ImageAndVerse

when I was in college I heard of some artists that would be so tormented by a piece that even though they had put it in the gallery, and it had sold, and now was hanging in some strangers house… The artist would be hunted by that piece because to them it had left their hands before they were done with it. They would find out who bought the painting, and sneak into their house in the middle of the night to continue to work on the painting because it was haunting them so terribly. I feel like those artists right now, because I’m reposting this bloody thing after sitting on it for days and editing and re-editing and re-re-editing in Lightroom. The damn thing has a potential and it’s trying to say something powerful and my editing skills are really getting tested right about now…. Honestly, I think this edition came out a bit too bright, and it looks different on one screen than it does another, but I like it better than the first one I posted (which was too dark and didn’t have enough contrast)… so there’s that. I hope somebody notices the difference and likes this one more… Cause if not, I’m gonna feel like a fucking fool, and that feeling is just coming entirely too easily these days.
