iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

This is an alternate version I almost finalized. Agonized back and forth between the open doorway with clouds or the nebulous emptiness. Liked the dark better visually, but the bright better metaphorically. Also teased something in between, but it just missed the mark. #SleepySep #lavender

A surreal, dreamscape photographic collage made from multiple images overlaid. A woman looks off into the distance while a stairway climbs over her shoulder, leading to a doorway. The door opens to a nebulous dark: maybe clouds, maybe a starburst, maybe a black hole, maybe nothing. Grounding and background elements include brick work, lavender clouds, sprawling vines, a “one way” street sign, and pink flowers.

Lavender Clouds. A Stairway. Though still not sure where it goes. New piece, made for #SelfPortraitSunday. iPhone #collage, 2025 This one plays with #duality more than usual. See comments for details/alternate. #ArtOfSelfPortraiture #dreamscape #EastCoastKin

I tend to think buildings and manmade constructs when I think #angles but I love how the geometry of these young dancers in motion lines up. #DoubleExposure in camera. Nikon D800, 2015 #BlueSkyArtShow #EastCoastKin #dance #photography

Young ballerinas in long, pale blue gowns dance around the stage. The flurry of flowing skirts dominates the frame. A double exposure outlines the shape of the dancers, like hazy spirits floating larger than life across the scene.

Yes. It’s such a complicated balance. But we’re doing a really great job of ignoring that balance and just destroying everything. I live in this area and I’m watching acre after acre razed for new housing developments. Came out here to get away from all that, but “progress” is everywhere.

This used to be sprawling forest. We razed giant oak, cedar, pine, redbud, dogwood… all in the name of development. First for the lake, then for housing, businesses, and recreation. This is what deforestation looks like. Beautiful, isn’t it? #ForestFriday #EastCoastKin #scape #CedarCreekLake

The sun sets over Kings Creek Country Club golf course, near Cedar Creek Lake in east Texas.

Pink and orange sunlight rolls across the hills and settles in the pond, while a storybook rock bridge gently rises over the water. The grass needs to be mowed; it tickles the edge of the frame, inviting the viewer in for an evening stroll.

Oh this is just perfect. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful words with all of us. 🖤🖤🖤

Thank you! Lovely to meet you.

Free speech feels like an illusion right now, or a dream I just woke up from. As a photographer, I feel it haunting me in the streets, lurking over my shoulder.

Same!! Such a beautiful photograph and beautiful expression of humanity.

Breonny Lee @breonny.bsky.social · 18/09/2025

Love this photo! It’s worth noting this is from NYC’s pride parade in 1994. Which I think makes it even more special and important to remember to love love right now. 🌈 💕

Beauitful portrait. Love this.

Hi. 👋 I’m still new here. Came to make friends with artists and #HumansofBlueSky who are also disenfranchised with the current social media climate. I’m a #photography based artist and commercial #photographer based in #Dallas. Pleased to meet you. #EastCoastKin #ArtofSelfPortraiture #UrbanGaze

Selfie in a window reflection in Tucumcari, New Mexico. Clutching my Yashica-D twin lens and a Barbie doll in my right hand, while balancing a red iPhone in the left. The Blue Swallow Motel lights up in the background. Feeling extra touristy in my bright blue Route 66 t-shirt I picked up because I didn’t pack enough for the trip. 💁🏻‍♀️

Really enjoying it here on BlueSky in a way I haven’t since MySpace. Looking forward to “meeting” more of you!

Love this. And really needed it. I’m gonna hold on to this idea.

Breonny Lee @breonny.bsky.social · 17/09/2025

This is stunning. Beautiful capture.

Breonny Lee @breonny.bsky.social · 16/09/2025

No! But maybe in another life? It is certainly a calling of my soul, to be near the ocean.

Breonny Lee @breonny.bsky.social · 16/09/2025

This makes me feel a sort of longing I can’t quite put my finger on.

Thank you! God’s work, really. Just right time right place and all that. 💜

Good morning, Susan! ☀️ It’s sun shining here and beautiful. Hope you have a lovely day.

Okay sweet. Looks like a beautiful piece of glass to start your journey. Can’t wait to see more!

It’s a lovely shot. Which lens is this?

I can only imagine! I’ve only encountered them in the wild a couple of times with only a cell phone on me, so I have nothing at all to show for it. Because they are FAST. But so very cool.

And what a beautiful capture!

Same! Wondrous little beasts. Especially seeing one on in real life. They’re just so weirdly fascinating.

This step is so important to seed next year’s crop. Beautiful shot. This with the quote hit me just right today. 🖤

I missed #BlueSkyArtShow because I am wrestling with “home” these days. To me, #home is not the place where you live, but the place where you belong. And lately, I feel like a stranger in my homeland. Grappling with this all on #stunday A cell snap driving into my hometown #Dallas #EastCoastKin

An American flag waves proudly as Downtown Dallas towers in the background on a sunny afternoon. The bright blue sky is filled with cheerful white clouds. Snapped from a car window facing north while passing into “the canyon” (the part of I-30 depressed below street level running south of Downtown.)

Good morning, Susan. A #bluebrew for me, please. The world is frigid right now, metaphorically speaking, and I could use a cup to warm me up and shake the drearies. It’s perfect outside here in East Texas. It’s my insides off kilter. Thank you for sharing your stunshine with us. Love these threads!

Breonny Lee @breonny.bsky.social · 10/09/2025

Oh wow. Adding this to my list of places to visit.

Breonny Lee @breonny.bsky.social · 09/09/2025

I call this series Space Between #Dreams. Partly because they’re surreal dreamscapes and partly because I work on these pieces in the night battling insomnia. Sometimes I barely remember doing it so I get to see them with fresh eyes in the morning, which is neat. #SleepySep #EastCoastKin #collage

This is a surreal dreamscape collage created on iPhone. A woman in a yellow dress walks off toward the left. She is on a door. We do not know where the door leads. In the foreground, a streetlamp competes for attention, while a lone, fluffy cloud floats above and to the right. Deep blues and purples imbue a pensive tone.

I still live outside of Dallas, where I grew up. But one of my dearest friends grew up in Marysville. Fell in love with that part of Cali staying with her and her family. Feeling very overdue for a visit. And as Texas descends further into madness, we are weighing escape routes, including CA.

Breonny Lee @breonny.bsky.social · 09/09/2025

Ooooh. That’s a neat formation!

Sometimes, all I need is a dose of #cloudporn and a reminder to #lookup to keep the crazies at bay. It’s beautiful out there, this #BlueSkyMonday. (Not from today, but wanted to share anyway.) Hope your day is beautiful, too. 💙 Nikon D800, 2014 #EastCoastKin #MinimalMonday #photography

The sun glows from behind fluffy, smoky white clouds, while the deep, blue sky anchors the frame.

Truth!! Thankfully, it’s not the only light spot, but the dark cloud over the state is getting more than a little dicey.

Haha. Same. Except I was outside looking in, but same exact ”WTF?”

Each day, my head spins anew at how fast and furious humans are working to dismantle the planet.
