The Pike's Peak boulder scramble at ~14,000 ft. My first 14er a couple years ago. ๐ฅต
I put a Spotify code on my rear window. Today, at a red light, I saw someone take a photo of it and proceed to laugh their a** off. This is what the code plays. ๐ฆญ
It's Chaser's gotcha day! Brought this little freak home eight years ago today after he won me over while volunteering at the shelter. Life has never been the same.
Scissor-tailed flycatcher parents landing atop the tree housing their nest with three fledglings inside. I've been chasing a shot of these elegant #birds like this for a while. #photography

Chaser has a new favorite movie (flow). His little hop. ๐ญ
Eternal. #Photography This legendary beauty is an ancient bristlecone pine, which are among the oldest trees in the world, some exceeding 4,000 years of age.
I was about to go under anesthesia for the first time ever for a procedure and the song "I will survive" started playing. The nurse said "I want you to know this is the doctor's playlist, not mine." I told her it was a fever dream hearing this as I pass out & we had a good laugh. Anyways I survived.
Chaser and I do...whatever this is...at least once a day. ๐
I will never tire of spending time around these little goobers. Their songs and personalities are adorable. #Photography #BirdOfTheDay #Birds
There isn't much better than being in the presence of nature that makes you feel small.
A moment of zen from atop the Appalachian trail in North Carolina's Nantahala National Forest.
Staring straight up into a 400 ft waterfall deep within a cave.
Was photographing this white pelican when a great egret showed up and switched into ~ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ~ mode. #Birds
Argentina vs. Cabo Verde England vs. Mexico Wow, wow, wow. Absolute cinema just days apart.

"They've been as good or even better than Brazil today" Well yeah, no shit, they're up 2-0 lol
Throwback to years ago when I was (very slightly) dumber and made these, which fired some 1,000 roman candle shots from my arms in around 45 seconds, plus a 3" mortar at the end. ๐
I hide at home with Chaser from the 4th of July fireworks, so I will re-share my favorite fireworks photo, taken at the St. Louis Arch. Random aside: the Oklahoma state fair judge(s) thought this was a digitally-altered photo (it isn't) and removed it from its category. ๐
