I met a Bergen local. I was about to tell her that she’s very cute when she asked me to warn my followers. Piercings are fine, but you should avoid putting a metal bracket on your forehead if you are a stomach sleeper. Otherwise, just do it, you’ll be fine (sort of). #Photography #Norway #StreetArt
Beaver On The Go
@beaveronthego.bsky.social
Not affiliated with any company My photographers don't take responsibility for what I say (kind of ᵀᴹ) My thoughts are my own (sort of ᵀᴹ)
On National Day, in Bergen, my photographer was unable to take a centered photo of this 19th-century music pavilion. His sister had to tell him that a line of kids and their parents were patiently waiting for a weird guy to stop taking photos of a plush beaver in their pavilion. 😔 #Photography
Still on National Day! No, my photographer didn’t intentionally blur those beautiful flowers. Norwegian flowers are like Norwegians: reserved at first, quiet, and a bit introverted with strangers. This is why I am the only one in focus. 😳 #Photography #Bergen #Norway
In Bergen, I tried to blend in with some bright pink rhododendrons, with mixed results. Don't worry about me, I won’t eat them. I read that the toxin present in their leaves can cause seizures, comas, or death for cats and even horses. I wonder if I’m a deadly beauty too? 🦫🌺 #Photography #Norway
I aim to be, one day, as big as this tower… I said ONE DAY… for now, you will probably have to zoom in 300x to find me in this photo 😔 #BlueskyArtShow #Big #Photography #GripsholmSlott #Sweden
Still pondering if that’s big enough for my appetite. Probably not 🪵🦫 #BlueskyArtShow #Big #Photography #SomewhereBetweenBergenAndOslo
My photographers told me I’m finally big enough to drive and fly on my own. But only in these vehicles 😔 #BlueskyArtShow #Big #Photography #Oslo #Norway
‘My tongue twists for a sliver of purpose Looking for words that don't exist So I can say what I need to say When my thoughts are at war With the way they felt before’ #Photography #TheMenzingers #VårFrelsersGravlund #Norway
‘When I'm here I want to be there When I'm there I want to be anywhere else What a tragedy, a catastrophe Feeling alone around so many But don't feel sorry for me now’ #Photography #TheMenzingers #VårFrelsersGravlund #Norway
Someone managed to make my photographer believe that taking postbox photos will make him famous. There’s even a #PostboxSaturday tag. I had my doubts, so I managed to convince him NOT to zoom in on the postbox, just to keep from scaring the photography community. 😊 #Photography #Bergen #Norway
Photographer: Look! A Swedish postbox! Beaver: No, I won’t stand on it! Photographer: Kanelbulle, prinsesstårta, and chokladboll: all you can eat 🙄 Beaver: Drinks too? 😏 Photographer: Fläderblomssaft and lingonberry juice: all you can drink 🙄 Beaver: 😋 #Photography #PostboxWednesday (yeah, well)
In Skogskyrkogården, the largest Swedish cemetery, this ängsbräsma (Cardamine pratensis) doesn’t ask anyone’s permission to live, thrive, and die. She brings life, beauty, and her soft purple color to all the surrounding tombs. No one would dare remove her. #Photography #Stockholm
In Bergen, a street artist totally nailed cat psychology! Cats usually hate tight human hugs, it feels like a predator attack. They feel trapped, immobilized, and it triggers their survival mode. Only plushies are trained to survive that kind of intense love. 🦫 #Photography #StreetArt #Caturday
The struggle is real when my photographer has to dig into the archives of discarded London photos for this week's #BlueskyArtShow theme: #glass. Luckily, Hogwarts wizards always save the day! #Photography #WBTourLondon
Please stop staring at these photos, Honey… Put up your dukes and fight the temptation! If it weren't for the #BlueskyArtShow #Glass theme, I would have never tempted you in the first place. 🍬 😔 #Photography #Universal #Honeydukes
While on Stigbergsgatan, we encountered a 16th-century house. I knocked on the door, asking to talk to L. (@lnsqaf.bsky.social). I used riddles, conundrums and brainteasers but it was as if I weren’t speaking with the right Kentish accent. Yeah, she sort of wasn’t there 😔 #Photography #Stockholm
Beaver: Look, it’s Veronica Marie’s avatar! (@veralarousse.eurosky.social) Photographer: Nope. Her avatar comes from an Alphonse Mucha painting. Though, she probably won’t mind being compared to Botticelli’s Venus. Beaver: 😳 Photographer: 😏 Beaver: 😟😲🤫 #Photography #CapEsterel #StreetArt
While in Bergen, I was pretty sure I would finally meet Jools and Sid (@joolsandsid.bsky.social). So I entered the Juhls’ Silver Gallery. I bow-wowed, woofed, and yapped, but Sid never answered. Maybe I didn't bark well enough... 😔 #Photography #Norway
In Cap Estérel, beaver plushies grow on trees (sort of). Even if they grow a little topsy-turvy! #Photography #BlueskyArtShow #Growing #France
In Oslo, Norway, Helene Brudevoll seems to wish that trees could grow in hands. Fear not, humans, we’re talking about a Stone Giant's hand, not fragile human hands. Though your delicate fingers could certainly help plant more of them... 🌱 #Photography #BlueskyArtShow #Growing
Street Art is overrated. We need to see a growth of more parking signs, more bins, and more cars. In Nesttun (Norway), they understood that. MuM’s art is resisting, though, and maybe it will grow on Nesttunere… #Photography #BlueskyArtShow #Growing #StreetArt www.mumkunst.com
[promising alert] The wheel of fortune will soon turn in your favor. [crackling noise] The wheel… fortune… soon… favor… [popping noise] The… fortune… turn… in… [maintenance alert] Sorry. Wheel of fortune stuck. Fortune struck. Fortune is weaponized. Great. 🙄 #Photography #Sweden #Drottningholm
Stockholm is a really tiny city. A ship’s hull is as tall as a 10-story building. A flower box is as lofty as a 5-storey property. And, yeah, in Stockholm, I feel like a strapping young beaver. Interesting story, isn’t it? #Photography #EnglishPropertyPrecept
Oh my. Does this mean that… ohhh... For now, my photographer is having an existential crisis, like only humans do: which ribbon to choose? 😏 Both? One for M - - - - D and S - - - - - E, and the other one for M - - - - A and G - - - - - A. It’s not like he asks for my advice anyway. 🙄 #Photography
I’m ready to invade the Île d'Or and plant my flag at the top of its tower. Why? Well, it’s made of red volcanic rock, fitting my color palette perfectly and making a great entry point for my future empire. It’s always quiet before the storm… #BlueskyArtShow #Quiet #Photography #CapEsterel
If you think humans are too noisy to enjoy a quiet sunset, just bring a shrubbery with you. They are oh so quiet. #BlueskyArtShow #Quiet #Photography #CapEsterel #France
It's oh, so quiet, shh, shh It's oh, so still, shh, shh You're all alone, shh, shh And so peaceful until… Till it's over, and then, shh, shh It's nice and quiet, shh, shh But soon again, shh, shh The sky caves in When you fall in love… #BlueskyArtShow #Quiet #Photography #CapEsterel #Björk
Please come and sit next to me. I don’t bite (mostly). #BlueskyArtShow #Quiet #Photography #CapEsterel #France
In Skogskyrkogården, Stockholm, 100,000 graves won’t tell you if the dead were rich or poor. The cemetery board decided that no one should eclipse their neighbor. That’s why you see the same tombs as far as the eye can see, over and over again… except… #Photography #Sweden #Skogskyrkogården
