As an example, this is what it looked like straight out of the camera (on the left), vs edited (on the right).

A photo of a robin sitting on a wooden fence. The left side is labeled "Before", and is significantly noisier and grainier than the edited version on the right side, which is labeled "After".

It still kind of blows my mind what you can get out of pictures with camera stabilization, and a little care in editing. This was handheld, 300mm, f7.1, 1/80s, ISO80000, and taken several minutes AFTER sunset in my backyard. #photography #birdphotography #wildlifephotography

Easily my favorite photo I got at the @lansingcommonfc.bsky.social match last week.

Trump envisioning his life in a few years.

A picture of Krang, from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He is a disembodied brain with eyes, a mouth, and tentacles for some reason. He sits in the belly of a robot body that he controls with little joysticks.

There’s a reason @lansingcommonfc.bsky.social is the Robins. Always a few families of them in the yard each year.

A robin sitting in a fence, with its feathers all puffed up like it’s proud or something. I guess it’s fair, I’d be smug too if I could fly.

I learned my lesson long ago to never trust dummys in abandoned areas.

Booby trapped ventriloquist’s dummy from the Babylon 5 episode Grey 17 is Missing.

I think this robin wanted to fight me.

A robin perched on a pile of split logs. It is puffing out its feathers, and looks like it may be damp from a recent bath. Its wings are back and slightly open. Is it preening? Drying itself off? Or is it giving me the bird equivalent of “come at me bro”? Scientists may never know.

Sunday evening at the Church of Footbucket™️.

A lovely spring day, blue sky, green grass and trees. In the foreground there is patio furniture, and a man’s legs visible, with the man’s feet in a galvanized bucket half-filled with hose water.

Is the poetry good? You decide! But some of the design of the book is nicely done, though definitely vintage 1978.

Green pages with leaves, and a poem from “Come Be with Me” by Leonard Nimoy, 1978.

Poem reads:

Let me not take for granted
An act of kindness
An offering of love
The glory of human courage
A sign of respect
A phrase of beautiful music
A decent soul
The beauty of a blossom
And above all,
You.

Orange pages with leaves, and a poem from “Come Be with Me” by Leonard Nimoy, 1978.

Poem reads:

Rocket ships
Are exciting
But so are roses On a birthday
Computers are exciting
But so is a sunset
And logic
Will never replace
Love
Sometimes I wonder
Where I belong In the future
Or
In the past
I guess I'm just
An old-fashioned
Space-man

A mug of coffee sitting in a window sill. There is snow on the ground outside the window. You can make out a bush, and (somewhat more vaguely) the yards across the street. Coffee mug is white with black letters reading
“I'm Not Myself
Until I've Had
So Much Coffee
That I Feel Like
I'm Going To Die”
