Made another delicious digital composite from the shade of a shrubby oak.

Composite image of purple Victorian house in downtown Napa with pink and purple blossoms.

Color is the main theme for me here but interplay of linear and organic lines bring harmony to the architecture and setting.

Across from my barber shop is one of the most beautiful houses in Napa, I finally caught it in beautiful light and then got my haircut. Composite art soon to follow.

13 disturbing things Trump has described as ‘beautiful’ that aren't beautiful at all Donald Trump has a series of go-to phrases he likes to throw out into the ether. One of them is “Nobody knows more” and is usually followed with “about [insert topical news item here] than I do”. Anot...

The forces that seek to reverse our evolutionary progress are destroying our basic language tools. As an aesthetic practitioner, I morn the corruption of the word “beautiful” with this regime. There is nothing beautiful about a “big bill” or “world war”. www.indy100.com/news/donald-...

I think this was sampled for this song. Love it.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.

We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.

Don’t take a vertically oriented photo of a beautiful vista and call it a Landscape.

Skills. Nice work.

I send warmth and empathy, your country is strong still.

I’m getting 1k views an hour on IG from my video of the walkout of 3 high schools in Napa yesterday. Here’s a clip from the video. So proud of those kids.

I snapped a few photos as we climbed the steps and walked around the base of Coit Tower last week. Here is a composite of 3 views. (Alcatraz is hidden in the details.)

I just did a search how to report identity theft and found the government reporting page didn't exist anymore. It had a link to a Federal Trade Commission website, which says the FTC is closed due to "lapse in funding". Pretty sure they would be open if someone else was in office.

The technology used to get the shots and sounds really worked well. Definitely a big screen movie. The plot and characters did good enough, how can you not like Brad?

Nothing political about the search for truth.

Did a scavenger hunt in San Francisco today with my kids school, it was crazy and fun but I did catch this quite moment in a Chinatown playground.

There is no more middle ground.

Most F bombs in a movie ever?

Everyone on earth with access to a screen is watching this. Martyrs are being made and the protection we were promised is vacant. Democratic institutions in free fall.

I pulled out 1000 invasive plants today at my local park.

The light on this old stump reminds me of Groot.
