NOTCHES

This , closely following Trans Day of Visibility, we wanted to focus on trans history, so we’re looking back at the work of Joseph Gamble in “Information Pleases”: Dictionaries and Trans History.

Providing an interesting exploration of the codification of trans related terms into dictionaries, Gamble also notes that this history spans not only across decades, but centuries.

Iceland is my happy place, but if you asked me which part of Iceland made me the happiest, I'd say with 100% certainty, it's the Eastfjords.

I took this photo there, somewhere between Egilsstaðir and Reyðarfjorður, in October 2017. Been back to Iceland a couple of times since but not to the Eastfjords. Really looking forward to being back there next month.

A mountain valley in a golden hue of autumn with a river running through it under moody, cloudy skies.

Here's a throwback for @czarbucks ... from that time 16 years ago when I went out into nature to take pictures.

This is Bent Creek Experimental Forest, near Asheville, North Carolina. Bent Creek is the oldest federal experimental forest east of the Mississippi. It's also where I said to my sister who took me there: "Oh look, it's a place for forest rangers with OCD. They number the trees so they can count them every morning."

🙄

Anyway, in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, there's a good chance half of the trees are now gone. And sadly, with that shithead in the White House, there's a good chance half of the forest rangers are gone too.

A shady forest scene, with trees and bushy ferny things standing in dappled light. It's October 2009, and the autumn leaves are doing their thing, turning colors. Somewhere behind me, my sister's dogs are running around looking for poison ivy to romp through.

My first project #Tit4Cat photo, "sweater" was uploaded on April 20th, 2024. That was 348 days ago.

Since then, I've uploaded 196 photos (the 132 currently available, 22 archived, and 42 Lovense sessions) — that's an average of 0.56 photos per day!

My main gallery has been downloaded 9966 times, which is an average of 28.64 times per day since it went live!

It has gathered *hundreds* of cute pet pictures in response (I wish I had a total count for this).

Thanks for making this a fun experiment—I plan to keep it up for as long as there's interest (and cute pet pics) 💝

#ThrowbackThursday to one of my favorite images taken on a trip to the #Canadian #RockyMountains back in 2021.

I've re-processed it now, after having lost the original edit. Thankfully I still have the RAW file!

It became a favorite mostly because of the setting I shot it in. A quiet moment in a very busy trip that became a moment to relax mentally and enjoy the evening breeze.

Three layered mountains create and horizon through the middle of the frame. The central mountain is the furthest and lowest, is lightly lit by the still setting sun. The sky, a mixture of stratospheric and low cumulus is lit in brilliant purples and deep blues. The foreground includes a layer of deciduous trees, with a strip of coniferous behind. A true feast of layers!
