When I die I'd like to be turned into 40-80 smooth stones so my loved ones can hurl them through the windows of my enemies.

Screenshot of an ad on Reddit from a company called Parting Stone. Text reads, "Transform ashes into 40-80 smooth stones your family can hold and share." Picture is of hands holding three smooth, white stones above a pile of more of these stones on a wooden table.

camp cryptid

A shot of Cooper, a black and white husky mix, laying on the ground of a campsite. He is illuminated by a flashlight. The photo is edited to be grainy and have a green tint to evoke a trail cam aesthetic.

Megan and I bought a box of 65 random DVDs that were from RedBox and we are going to watch them all.

A view of the demolition of the Commercial Street bridge. Crews are working 24/7 to tear down the existing bridge. Right now they are removing the surface structure. Later in the week they will implode the remaining structure. After that they will work to slide the new bridge into place.

The Commercial Street Bridge, a long, concrete, arched bridge that crosses a stream and road, is being torn down. This bridge in Pittsburgh leads into the Squirrel Hill Tunnel and carries nearly 100,000 vehicles a day. Large machines on the top of the bridge are tearing up the surface. Debris is falling into a large pile of rubble below the bridge. The green-painted steel beams of the new bridge is in the background.

I think about the day I shot this photo a lot. It’s been over 10 years and I’ve never been on such an ethereal walk through a park since. #photography #nature #sunset #pennsylvania

A man reaches out and touches a lone tree in the middle of a field. They are silhouetted against a foggy background and a blue sky with pink clouds. The moon looks like a tiny, glowing dot above the tree.

Where should I send him to?

Today while gardening I encountered this blueish-grey isopod. I thought it was a species I've never seen before or even a genetic anomaly much like a blue lobster. This isopod is likely actually infected with the isopod iridovirus which causes this iridescent coloration & decreased responsiveness.

A close of photo of an isopod infected with the isopod iridovirus. This causes it to have a bluish iridescent appearance.

One of my last shots of the Commercial Street bridge before construction started. They are replacing the bridge by building the new one next to it. Over 25 days they will demolish the old one and slide in the new one. Anyone living in the Pittsburgh area has been bracing from the disruption.

Black and white photograph of the Commercial Street bridge in Pittsburgh. A trail cuts through a field underneath the wide arch of the bridge. The infrared filter on the camera makes the foliage appear white, adding to the dramatic contrast of the scene.

Poked around the park with the Light L16 the other day. It’s a notoriously light hungry camera so I brought along the Godox MA5R LED light to fill my shots. They work well together but still doesn’t make up for the L16’s flaws (of which there are many) #photography #fern #nature

nightblooms Testing out the Godox MA5R in the garden. It’s a nifty little light and I’m looking forward to testing it out for macro shots. Might have to get a second one. #photography #nature #gardening #flowers

Several clematis flowers growing on a bamboo trellis. They are lit by a blue light. They have a soft glow from a diffusion filter on the camera.

📷 Picked by my camera for the first time in a couple months to take pics of the shimmery flakes falling to the ground. Wish I could have stayed out longer but unfortunately work was calling. #snowflake #macrophotography #macro #photography #pennsylvania #eastcoastkin #nature #naturalist

Everyday the news gets stupider and darker, but at least I can take comfort it knowing it’s my dog’s birthday. Happy 7th birthday, Cooper!!!
