Bees have eye hairs that shield them from pollen. I took this image with my Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM macro lens and a Raynox DCR-250 (2.5x). #naturephotography #nature #wildlifephotography #wildlife #macrophotography #macro #eastcoastkin #bees #photography

Happy 53rd Anniversary to #StarTrek, the legendary animated series which premiered on NBC the morning of Saturday, September 8th, 1973. I've heard they also did a live-action version of the show with these same characters. #StarTrekDay

In honor of #DollyParton's legacy, I wanted to share one of her #films -- if you're a Gen Z who's heard your parents talk about how good "Nine to Five" was, believe them! Now's the time to check it out. At our Mum's recommendation, my Sis & I watched, & found it bitingly witty + hilarious! #FilmSky

Today would've been Walter "Matt" Jefferies' 105th birthday. 60 years after the spaceship he designed along with the entire aesthetic he envisioned first hit TV screens, they continue to inform and inspire #StarTrek production design in every incarnation of Gene Roddenberry's creation to this day.

Forgot to mention… my short story “If the Martians Have Magic” was narrated by Wil Wheaton in June on his It’s Storytime podcast. This is my 2nd story narrated by one of the TNG crew (legendary LeVar Burton narrated “The Angel of Khan el-Khalili”) and now I feel like I gotta collect the set.
