- It's done!!! Walking in Circles is the world’s first named chronotych: a unified body of images arranged to express the passage of time quietly and fabulously unfolding. View the COMPLETED chronotych at www.auntieelk.com/wic
- Another triptych makes a single moment bigger.
- I love a good triptych: three images where time is made visible.
- Two more diptychs because numbers are beautiful. TWO
- Two more diptychs because numbers are beautiful. ONE
- A single image is powerful, but a diptych builds a mental bridge so instead of looking at a moment, you move through it.

- I HATE climate change. Yesterday this yearling walked past my home. While it is normal to be kicked out of the family group by now, this precious bear, who was obviously terrified, should be tucked up cozy in a den surrounded by snow. Instead, all we have to offer is dirt and dried pine needles.

- I want to thank my 188 followers! It feels like only yesterday we were at the Taos No Kings protest and I had to explain to my partner that 43 followers were not a lot of followers. That actually, with only 43 followers, I was still in the “might be a troll” category. #photography

- The End
- This is the day I want to remember in the cold of December. The weather was so perfect it inspired sensations not normally felt, so I laid in the grass, smelt the Earth, felt the sun, listened to the silence, and lingered in the gratitude. #photography
