Havana Cemetery in Havana, MN. A neat little country cemetery flanked by a large cornfield and a dirt road. A quiet and tranquil spot to spend eternity. 📸 Sony a7RIV + Sigm 24-70mm DG DN | A 📷 #photography #minnesotaphotographer #cemeteries #momentomori #landscapephotography #sonyalpha

4 out of 5 ain't bad... Combining my cats and my girlfriend's cats under one roof makes fur some fun Mel times. One skittish boy is missing from this shot. #catsofbluesky #meow #kitties #mealtime #persofbluesky

Four out of five of our hungry cats mob us for their dinner. It's three minutes late, which is totally unacceptable.

I went to Nerstrand Big Woods SP on Friday to photograph Hidden Falls, and it was PACKED, so I tried nearby Caron Park which was bereft of people which was nice. 📷📸 #sonyalpha a7RIV + 24mm f/1.4 GM #photography #minnesotaphotographer #landscapephotography #waterfalls

I've been nursing a sick kitty, who is on the mend, but I moved my cam so I could monitor food/water intake and potty habits. My other cat, Kira, was super curious about the cam late last night, and this was the last thing it saw before it ended up lying on the floor, filming the ceiling.

Kira the cat's late-night investigation my webcam, transforming herself into an overexposed cryptid worthy of Nuke's Top 5 video.

Logged out of work early today because o have a migraine. Crawled into bed and Kira has been my guardian, staying close by.

Orange tabby/calico, Kira, laying on my blankets with her head supported by a gold. Both eyes are slits showing she is barely awake.

This was Ted 15 minutes before I got home from work and he sat there and watched the door until I walked in. He does it every day I'm in the office. I don't care if it's because he wanted fed. I prefer to think he's waiting for me out of loyalty and that's my truth. #meow #kitty

My cat, Ted, on my webcam watching for me to come home.

Kira (not so) subtly hinting that it's time to get out of the tub and get her her dinner... #meow #catpics #thequeen

Kira, a tabby and calico, or a Tabico coat, patiently sitting on my toilet staring at me to get her her dinner.

red-winged blackbird stands on a jagged tree stump, calling out into a softly blurred background of spring foliage, presumably convinced it’s being heard.

A red-winged blackbird perched on a broken tree trunk, beak closed and looking off to the side, as if waiting for a response it may or may not get.

A red-winged blackbird perched on a reed in a field of dried stems, making direct eye and yelling something that it expects an immediate answer to.

A red-winged blackbird perches on a thin reed among dry stalks, turned slightly to the side as if pretending not to notice it’s being watched.

It's really difficult.

A black-and-white graphic titled “Cognitive Assessment Test” asks, “Please identify the doctor.” Below are two side-by-side illustrations with empty checkboxes above each. On the left is a man in a lab coat with a stethoscope, holding a clipboard. On the right is a traditional depiction of Jesus with long hair, a beard, and a robe, with a halo around his head and hands raised. At the bottom are blank lines labeled “Patient Name” and “Date.”

"I did post it, and I thought it was me as a doctor," the president told reporters in an impromptu press conference outside the Oval Office. "And it had to do with Red Cross. There's a Red Cross worker there, which we support. And only the fake news could come up with that one.

He continued: "So I — I just heard about it. And I said, 'How did they come up with that?' It's supposed to be me as a doctor, making people better, and I do make people better."
