A torii is silhouetted against the sky with a full moon above. A stone path leads through the torii towards a staircase in which people can be seen. Buildings either side have lights on and there are several trees.

RRRGHHHH I LOVE YOU!!

a close up of a water lily in bloom resting in the water, bathed in sunlight. it is starkly contrasted against the dark lake and unruly water weeds.

A photo of a foggy morning on the inlet of a lake. the photo depicts a dock holding two upside down boats, a kayak and a canoe, and beyond that the water is still like glass. Everything is a warm grey.

mornings on the lake when the water lilies started to bloom. I have never seen anything like it

A round Perspex paperweight containing a dried Wild Teasel seed head sits on an outstretched hand next to a growing example of the same plant in our garden. The living plant’s spiky flower head sits atop the the thorny plant’s stalk. Slender green and white leaves stretch out from the base.

Preserved in … plastic. I bought this Teasel paperweight for the lovely wife many years ago when she collected the things but only recently have we grown the plant ourselves in our little wildflower patch.

Lincoln City was a memorial/family reunion, and my mom made us t shirts to commemorate, just like her dad would have. Love you Gpa, miss you.

a picture of a lake at dusk, the trees and water are in a haze of fog that is rolling in from the coast. everything is in a muted yellow light

spent the weekend at Devil's lake in Lincoln City with family, I took all the opportunities I could to explore the lake

a zoomed in picture of a harbor seal resting on a mussel bed in a rocky cove

I took myself on a birthday day trip to Newport, OR yesterday- the weather was absolutely amazing! I got to see so many harbor seals and enjoyed a dinner at a bayfront restaurant, and after that I got to sit with the ocean and ask for guidance going into this new age 🌊

Happy Wednesday! Wishing for nicer weather so here’s one of my favorite shots from last spring at the Turn Point Lighthouse! Pretty skies, beautiful scenery and fun whales! Couldn’t ask for a more perfect encounter!
