Layers of mountain ridges fading into the haze at Chinook Pass, WA. I like how the farther ridges become softer and bluer, creating a strong sense of depth. #LandscapePhotography #PacificCrestTrail #MountainPhotography

Layered mountain ridges fade into blue-gray haze near Sheep Lake along the Pacific Crest Trail, with each distant ridge becoming softer and lighter in tone. Evergreen-covered slopes frame the valley under a pale sky. The scene feels quiet and expansive.

My October challenge to everyone: Build yourself a completely ridiculous Website at Neocities or wherever, just NOT on social media. Share it. Let's bring back the #indieweb.

Was honoured to do volunteer photography at a #truthandreconciliation event last night. The Jingle and Chicken dancers were my favourites. Good people and good words. #photography #firstnations #indigenousculture

That time in 2019 when I wrecked a dress in the Pacific Ocean while doing this photo shoot in Tofino with Jeff and it was totally worth it.

Photo of Jen from 2019 sitting on a log on Mackenzie beach in Tofino at sunset wearing a red taffeta party dress with black velvet spiderweb pattern and red rubber boots.

This summer was a bit of a downer. Didn't make it out to the mountains once. I got this shot back in May when my wife was speaking on AI at a conference in #Banff. #photography #rockies #rockymountains

Rocky mountains reflected in the Bow River in Banff in spring.

Image captured from about 1 km away. Drone was 1 m above surface of pond and I got it close enough to the fountain that the lens got a few dots of spray, but no damage to the aircraft. #photography #strathmore #alberta #kinsmenlake #foundtain #fall #dji #mini3 #dronephotography

Living in this province (#Alberta, Canada) grinds on me more every day. Never thought I would see the amount of open #racism I do now. Trying to figure out how to move to Manitoba.

And now for something completely different. Ever been to a photoblog where every photo is its own puzzle game? Because I have that. theschoolofhardnocks.ca Click on a little moving tile in the gutter and have fun. Let me know if you find bugs, please. #photography #photoblog #15puzzle #puzzles

The $29 #lug nut extractor set (better than the $75 one at #canadiantire) arrived from #amazoncanada today and I got the ruined lug off. Raining too hard to do the #brakes today, but at least my wife can get to work tomorrow and I'll change disc and pads tomorrow night. #carrepair #autorepair

Today I stood up Pixelfed, Mastodon, and GoToSocial servers for interoperability testing. Also another "fedistructure" instance of SNAPSMACK to abuse them with. Have an agentic AI thrashing the sh__ out of them as I'm typing this. Getting the interop errors nailed down. #pixelfed #fediverse

The images I cherish most are the ones that aren't obvious when you walk past the scene, but are when you can't walk past the photograph.

SNAP SLAPPER, the free photo organizer and editor in SNAPSMACK's desktop suite is now feature rich and stable enough that it is my primary photo editor. It also integrates nicely into the backup tool, also free. It's all free. #photography #photoeditor #FOSS #free #photoediting

Hey @duanebratt.bsky.social, both the federalists and the AB separatists were represented in the #Strathmore #Alberta Stampede Parade today (and after). Disappointing to see the separatists made the leaders of the parade, though. #abpolitics #forevercanadian #daniellesmith #ucp

You know your software is getting complex when you forsee a problem two months back, build the tools into MAINTENANCE to fix them, and then can't remember they are there when you need them. Claude: We built it it already. Go here. Me: Fkkkkkkkkk. Blah. #vibecoding #gapcoding #photoblog
