Flower show in Shanghai with over 500000 tulips.

I tried some spicy beer. 🌶️🍺



Went to a local cherry blossom festival yesterday.
They weren’t fully bloomed yet (maybe around 80%), but still looked amazing.

This was at an Unknown Mortal Orchestra (a psych rock band) gig at an old and fancy venue. At one point, the lighting was such that members of the band were silhouetted against the upper ceiling; it was also cycling such that different band members were casting shadows. The image doesn't capture the phenomenon very well, but it's enough to invoke the memory in me, as well as the awe I felt at seeing it.


The view of the inner harbor from our hotel room.
I dont go outside much. Here are a couple from the last time i went out.


A fox. It (I don't know whether male or female) was in a city. It didn't seem too fearful of people, so I tried following it. When we got to a darker area it sat down, and so did I.

When it got up, I followed it, ending up on volleyball playground. With sand. The fox started running around in it. I noticed it would kick some sand, then jump there.
So I squat down, and threw a handful of sand to the side. This did work. It approached me to arm's reach, but would spring away at any movement. I accidentally scared it off when the fox circled very closely around me and I turned around - I was worried about getting peed on. Foxes do that a lot.
Some 40 minutes later, I lost it at a construction site.

I completely lost the sight of it after I circled around to enter there.
Anyway, not a picture, but I also have some bit of video:
All is B&W because I used IR camera. I don't know how much of that foxes see, but I hope it's at least far less than if I used regular flash.

Brilliant! The expression, the feline, the composition, everything. Lovely shot. :D

Nice blep capture!! 💯


I visited Frankfurt/Offenbach and liked the view.

As a comparison
Same shot, with flash instead

Out cycling yesterday in Roero, Piemonte, Italy.

This is my girl Hennifer Lopez, about a month ago when the northeast got that big blizzard.

Idk if she got into a fight or if this was just some late molting, but either way, those pin-feathers look badass.
My phone decided my 128GB SD card is corrupt today, so no photos for you. Reminder to back up your mobile!
Try it in a (proper) computer. I've had a phone complain, but it mounted on Linux. And after whatever magic fsck.fat does, it mounted on phone too.
I also had a SanDisk fail read-only.
Seems like it's actually gone bad :(


Beardies are funny
First time in my life, I got to stop through the Kennedy Space Center on our way home from Florida. Its been a dream of mine to see a rocket launch from there and unfortunately I don’t have the time available to go down and see Artemis 2 launch in person as our vacation was last week… but I DID get to see her standing proud on the platform!
One day I’ll get to see it fly in person… one day 😊
