I simply call this one "Olympics Rising", because on the road to Cape Flattery, paralleling the Strait of Juan de Fuca, I caught sight of this breathtaking view of the mountains of coastal Washington in the low light of a summer's late evening. No editing was made...or needed.

I dub it "The Ghosts Yet Dance": a heretofore unreleased picture of my first and so far only time I was mano-a-mano with a supercell thunderstorm...right over Devil's Tower, making for a spectacular sight the last time I visited the High Plains.

Ooh...playing around with the tones I love how this one came out; it does capture Martian twilight, or at least what I imagine it might look like. Lo, my "Monowheel in Martian dust storm at sunset".

Looking back through my archives, I find that warming and softening up this piece lends it an even dreamier quality than the original, so lo and behold a new version of my vision "Mermaid in swirling kelp forest".

An oddly workaday outfit for such a lovely lady, but she has such fair features the eye can't help but be drawn to her and her classical-style fireplace, the vibe of Henry Ryland's "Fireplace Reverie" a fine example to keep in mind as the tide of crackling logs draws nearer.

The trail to Cape Flattery: when you reach the end of that, cloud above, wind aface, waters acrash, it feels like you've reached the final limit of terra firma, and Ὠκεανός is all that lies between you and the edge of the world. Thus I dub this capture "At World's End".

It's a lot longer a drive than it looks on a map, but what's the hurry, when the whole way there you're caressed by summer's descending sun, rays filtered through a mist that heralds the arrival of the Flying Dutchman, coming that night to...well, I'll let you fill in the rest.
My photographic piece from the shores of the Strait of Juan de Fuca last July, "Road to the Cape".

@joiestylotus I suppose not, but it becomes hard to sustain such a view when it becomes evident that people like this represent the vast majority of the public.
Of all the lists various weirdos on Twitter (er, excuse me, "X" 🙄 ) have added me onto over the years on Twitter this might actually be the most boutique. "Personality disorder"? Dude, I don't have any personality disorder; I'm just normal.
Needless to say it's supposed to be some kind of insult, and the adder has been blocked effective immediately.

The more I think about and worldbuild my Great Christmas Blizzard for a story, the less it's seeming like Superstorm Sandy Deluxe and the more it's coming out like The Day After Tomorrow Lite. The numbers I'm working with suggest snowdrifts overtopping the Capitol Dome. 😮

TIL the quite possibly largest comet ever seen was observed all the way back in 1729; the thing was naked-eye visible even though it barely even approached the inner solar system. 😮

Not sure what the exact circumstances of this capture of mine ("Sheet of ice on glass" I call it) even were, but it was a cool visual: raindrops pitter-pattering on a sheet of ice on glass. A vibe I'd like to see a lot more of as we get deeper into fall. 🍂🥶🍁 #art #photography #ice #rain #glass https://cdn.masto.host/socialadamasnemesiscom/media_attachments/files/111/043/006/638/037/241/original/1211ba418b0d5e0b.jpeg
