- Cold/flu still has me firmly in its claws; did pop out and grab some essentials in case snow and ice get silly. I should just stick a camera out a window for #cold ... or at me, but not doing that, will shatter a lens ... so back to last weekend. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #Landscape
- What an absolute wonderful series this time around. Thankyou Claud, cast and crew. What a delightful dance, and to the winner(s) - so very, very deserved. Well played, good game #Traitors
- Been a post less week from me; just wanted to thank all the folks who've liked and re-posted my random snapping. This week has been bleurgh rather than blue; missed #BlueSkyMonday and #BlueTues as some lurgy that has worked its way into my chest, so this week is toast #Photography #Landscape

- Couple of days ago, I posted a Canada goose alighting on Lake Redman; I love the way those geese do things together, in formation. Given @robcrank68.bsky.social's choice of #TwoOfAKind as today's #BirdOfTheDay theme, perfect time to show it. #Photography #Birds #Nature #EastCoastKin #Stunday

- Hmm, covering of snow here, and sub-zero temperatures, so I think I will be hiding under blankets indoors and making happier post; one charged with expectation and hope, wishes for a little green and warmth. Lets call it "Soon" #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #One #BloomScrolling #Flowers
- Not sure if the great egret atop this branch would say it was perfect, can imagine them being a very fussy bird, but to my eye its a #perfectperch for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme as selected by @alan678.bsky.social 🦉🐦 #Photograph #Birds #Nature #Wildlife #EastCoastKin
- Looking back 17 years with this #One shot for #BlueSkyArtShow, with a PA Dutch tradition for a child on their first birthday; their own cake to demolish/consume. In our case it was bittersweet, with allergic reactions, restrictive diets and always having an epipen on hand thereafter #Photography
- Not enough river photos from me this week, must correct that deficiency right now! Hmm... monochrome #Scape the length and breadth of the Susquehanna's Lake Clarke section in two shots? Free from boats and humanity, jetties pulled ashore to avoid ice ... no not them #Photography #ColorADay #BWFri
- @robcrank68.bsky.social has selected #shortbeaks as today's #BirdOfTheDay theme; now in a similar question to how much wood can a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood ... where does short stop and normality begin? This bluebird cares not about such things #Photography #Birds #Nature
- #TimePassages both the theme from the wonderful @sabineshutterbug.bsky.social for #PalacesAndGardens and coincidentally a track from the wonderful musician Al Stewart This shot, from 18 years back (I was all in on the HDR stacking craze) is from my in-laws garden .... better days, much missed
- "In preparation for landing, please ensure your seatbelts are fastened and your seats and tray tables are in their upright positions" Today's alt theme for #BirdOfTheDay from @alan678.bsky.social is #Anatidae, birds of the family that includes geese, swans and ducks. 🐦🦉 #Photography #Birds #Nature
- "Word has it it's #Gulls" "What's #Gulls?" "The theme" "The theme?" "The alt #BirdOfTheDay theme from @robcrank68.bsky.social" "Guys, enough chatter! I'm floating here! I'm floating here!" 🐦🦉 #Photography #Birds #Nature #Wildlife #EastCoastKin
- I've mentioned and posted many a sunset and starry night taken atop Chickies Ridge in Lancaster County, PA, either at Chickies Rock or Breezyview, but I don't think I've given folks a good view of the Rock from ground level; so this #RockinTuesday lets fix that #Photography #EastCoastKin

- Was a solid photo day yesterday, sun deigned to show itself. Birds were busy in William Kain Park; little windy for drone stuff, still exploring the limits there. Here's an aerial shot looking across William Kain Park and Lake Redman beneath the passing front. #Photography #BlueSkyMonday #Aerial
- Been neglecting #BirdOfTheDay for a few days. Today's theme of #BirdsInFlight, as chosen by @robcrank68.bsky.social, is a great excuse to share this shot taken over the weekend at Lake Williams, York County, PA amongst the gulls and geese. 🦉🐦 #Birds #Photography #Wildlife #Nature #EastCoastKin
- Apologies to those who criticize me for not reposting the bluesky political zeitgeist endlessly; not a fan of the endless echoing with nothing additive However, I happened to catch Timecop ... not seen it since the movie theaters in 94, astounding how its villain's aims marry up 1:1 with Rump
- Flowing freely, Through valleys and meadows, A river's sweet song -- Matsuo Basho Wide and windswept right now, cruel and cold as it awaits the spring, the muddy river, one of the US' oldest, makes its way through the hills to Maryland and the sea beyond #Photography #ImageAndVerse #Landscape
- Late June, hot humid summer evening. Location, nothing special, a rest stop along Route 30 after work, grabbing a coffee. I came outside and looked up, to where the sky gods had apparently dropped their palette. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #Vibrant #Sunset #f8AndBeThere #EastCoastKin

- For completeness, here's a second #scape, looking upstream from Highpoint rather than downstream; beyond the Raanch upon the hilltops above Wrightsville, to the bridges over into Lancaster County, Rocky Ridge, Marietta and all points north. #Photography #Landscape #Drone

- Thank goodness its Friday ... all day apparently! Tis a day for a #scape and a little more of my aerial experimentation. In this case the view from Highpoint over Lake Clarke, across the 'small' residences nearby and across to Washington Boro and Turkey Hill #Photography #Landscape #Drone
- Most modern cameras have a histogram or 'zebras' to warn you when you under or over expose ... do not be like me ... use and take account of them! #Photography #ColorADay #YellowThu #PalacesAndGardens #SunriseOrSunset
- Some believe that every woman likes roses ... Dorothy Parker had another view "Why is it no one ever sent me yet One perfect limousine, do you suppose? Ah no, it’s always just my luck to get One perfect rose" #Photography #ColorADay #RedWed #BloomScrolling #Flowers
