Sumac. A couple weeks ago I was walking with my son and we both looked at some sumac at the same time, and said in unison, "sumac is so pretty." Here's some from today's dog walk.

So since moving instances, I have about 10% of the followers I had previously. I am not sure if this means that I did something wrong while moving (I followed instructions that should have moved followers and following with me), or if all this time most of the followers were ghosties 👻

Some rainbow lichen seen through a loupe. I didn't edit the colors in this photograph, although I've seen them previously, playing with the color intensity of other lichen photographs. As with auroras, the camera picks up colors that our eyes don't see. They seem to have been intensified by the loupe lens.

For ages, I had a loupe in my save-for-later shopping cart, but never got around to actually ordering it. My mom recently sent me a care package that included a loupe. I had never said anything about it, she just knows me pretty well. So today I was running around and using it with my phone camera. This little sweat bee says hi.

A free day with zero obligations. I went for a bike bimble. (Is it still a bimble if it's on a bike?) Following paths just to see where they went. Discovering a few local parks. I worked up an appetite and spent the last 15 minutes thinking through exactly what I was going to eat when I got home, in what order.
