I’m an autistic photographer. Nonbinary and all the way left. Deny, defend, depose. No quarter. Anti-fascist. I am not a liberal; I am a leftist. NO MAGA. I believe Dems are part of the problem. If you can't or won't see that, don't follow me

1.5 years. 100s of hours alone in the dark pushing a button. Lost a lens. Nearly drowned. Last night, I finally did it.

Photo of two people in a tunnel one dressed in a creepy doll dress the other in a long sleeve shirt and pants. Both are wearing pumpkins on their heads and facing each other holding hands and looking at the camera.

Two people wearing comfy street clothes and pumpkins on their heads sit in a tunnel lit by a green light. There is a pumpkin between them with a fire going in it.

There is a person wearing all black I. Front of a circle of light in a tunnel wearing a creepy mask with crossed out eyes that are lights. There are two pumpkins on the ground in front of them.

We got really weird with our pumpkin shoot and it was amazing. #pimpkinhead #longexposure #theoffice

I’m doing my first budoir or dudoir photoshoot today. So I did a lot research. He’s nervous enough without me being undecided about how to pose him. I looked up β€œmale budoir poses with penis” there were like 3 and the rest were just sexy pictures with women in them. Wtf?

Took a much needed break. So I’m back to give you all one as well. I stand ready but until then I plan to bring a bit of beauty to your timelines.

Photos using steel wool and whisks, bubbles, and LED lights as well as long exposure to create dazzling streaks and effects.

So I’ve been working hard to find little moments of joy where I can. This was one of them. Volume up.

Picture of poppy flowers close to the ground. They didn’t do well with all the rain but I found these two still intact for a photo.

I don’t know what flower this is. It looks like a bunch of small lilies on one stalk they are white with pink stripes on the petals.

I finally built my final two garden boxes. I can grow twice as much as I did last season. No neat veggies to show I live upstate NY. lol. But my #columbines are amazing.

Lady Slippers are gorgeous orchids that grow here in the wild. Like a lot of orchids, they resemble genitalia. Balls, to be exact. I took 100s of shots trying to make them look less like balls. This was best I could do

Omg I’ve been chasing the lights for so long. Yall. My app is literally yelling at me. The lights are forecast to be visible as far south as the gulf.

Photo of a black tulip not quite fully opened yet. It is a very close-up shot, so the background is a lovely yellow bokeh with spots of dark that match the flower in the shot.

Closeup shot of a white flower I found in a field. I don't know what type of flower this is, it has five petals and the pistil is quite long and looks a bit fluffy.

Please don't think that because I don't post about politics often, I'm not paying attention or that I'm not fighting the good fight. Neither of those things is true. Our feeds are full of politics, which is good. I share my work so we remember it's not all ugly right now..

Photo of an orchid named Lady Slipper. It has a long stem and one flower. There is a large green center with two reddish leaves on either side of the bloom. The bloom itself looks a little bit like balls.

I hit the jackpot on my short walk the other day. Lady Slippers -- an incredibly rare orchid that grows in the wild here in #upstateny #disabled #actuallyautistic #photographer #nature

The two most difficult things I photograph are fire spinners and the northern lights. Fire is just hard, but for northern lights one must be patient. Which isn’t a word anyone has ever used to describe me. This is my third time and the lights were weak but I’m improving

I drove an hour and a half trying to outrun the clouds. Learned a lesson: you can’t do that. I made the best of it.

Shooting fire is hard. Perhaps one of the most difficult types of photography I have tried yet. Especially breathing #fire #photography #actuallyautistic #albanyspinjam

An orange mushroom that is so small, it isn't much larger than the moss that it rests among.

Five tiny brown mushrooms, again, so tiny they aren't much larger than the moss they are surrounded by.

Got pulled over tonight. Said, "I am autistic, your lights are really bothering me." he said he would turn them off. He didn't. Then he gave me an absolute bullshit ticket. #disability #acab

Needless to say, I’m not asking for handouts. I’m not. I want to sell you my work. My photography. On mugs, calendars, etc. I hope when the time comes you will help.
