Burning fossil fuels makes wildfires more frequent and more intense. Of course those who have made record profits causing the problem should pick up the bill.

Zack Polanski calls for higher taxes on oil and gas profits to fund wildfire prevention

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekEforEphemeral Riding the wave …. on a canal in central Rotterdam this afternoon.

Man surfing across the peak of an artificial wave on a canal, several people watching behind a fence.

The #Ephemeral nature of a Ring-billed Gull watching the sunrise for the #AlphabetChallenge #WeekEForEphemeral #BrucePeninsula #BruceCounty #ECK #photography #birds #TenMinutesFromHome #Sunrise

A Ring-billed Gull watching the sunrise over Colpoy's Bay, Ontario. The sky is salmon pink and the water changes from salmon pink on the horizon to blue at the bottom of the image.

For the internet "experts" who have claimed this is AI slop. It was made with a 10 year old, base model mirrorless camera and the plastic kit telephoto zoom.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekEforEphemeral Fireworks over the Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen.

A night time shot with modern buildings next to water, some with windows lit. A green traffic light reflects onto the water. Above fireworks explode.

A vast stretch of lava rocks, sand, #sea, and #sky. I can feel my blood pressure going down just looking at this. Hope you find a moment of peace today too. #TidesOutTuesday #ColorADay #BlueTue #OregonCoast #Beach #PNW #ECK #NatureIsArt #GoOutside #Breathe #Notice #Don’tGiveUp

Deep blue sky stretches across the top of this picture, leading to a long, white stretch of cloud, and a lighter section of blue sky going towards the horizon, meeting a gray strip of fog hovering over the Pacific Ocean, which is mostly white waves meeting a swath of dark brownish-gray sand. A rocky old basaltic headland juts out into the sea on the right side of the picture, and a few other black basaltic rocks peek out of the waves on the left side.

Sonntagsfarben an der Westküste. 🌊 Sunday colours on the west coast. #eastcoastkin #tidesouttuesday #eck #waterwednesday #bluetue

Die Sonne steht tief über dem Horizont und spiegelt sich auf der ruhigen Wasseroberfläche des Wattenmeeres. Der Himmel zeigt ein Farbspiel aus Orange, Gelb und Blau mit vereinzelten Wolken. Im Vordergrund sind mehrere Wasserflächen, dazwischen sind grüne Grasinseln. Die Landschaft wirkt weit und offen.

Fleet Isles with Isle of Man beyond. Big skies. Walking out from Sandgreen last week. #TidesOutTuesday

A pier with a big wheel and tower at the end in silhouette with bits of red and yellow still in the sky.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekDforDark South London at night from Hilly Fields

Dark skies and distant lights including the Eiffel Tower like television transmitter at Crystal Palace. Unlit grass in the front, in the middle a well lit road with two almost squares on school buildings, they are large windows.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekDforDark Two Sisters outside Amsterdam’s Rijksmuseum

Carel Visser (1928-2015)
bronze, 1996

The warm greeting between Carel Visser's wife and her sister inspired series of small and large sculptures. The forms are sometimes so elongated that the women seem to face one anther like wrestlers.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekDforDark West India Quay Station

Seemingly deserted station at night with steps going down to ground level. Mostly metallic greys, the handrails and stir edges are in yellow.

Ian McMillan @imcmillan.bsky.social · last wk.

Early stroll. I’m framed in the door as I leave. The morning sky hints at possibilities for the afternoon sky. A hole dug in the pavement where I’ve intermittently smelled gas for decades. I bend to tame my left shoelace. An abandoned trampoline frame, unbouncy.

#Alphabetchallenge #WeekDForDark Deansgate Castlefield Manchester

A low angled photo of a long pedestrian bridge at Deansgate Castlefield Manchester that leads to the train station.
The glass panelled bridge has a 'cage' over the walkway made out of black tubular metal.
There is a man wearing dark clothes walking along the bridge towards the station.
It is dusk and the bridge has a row of lights shining onto the rain soaked floor.
In the distance are several tall tower blocks that are partially covered by mist

Early stroll. Front doors: theme and variations. A blushing sunrise. Time strolls with me, not speeding up or slowing down. Tree branches like scribbled signatures. A ginger cat runs from under a parked car like it did yesterday.
