Just saw a phenomenal concert at Wolf Trap in Virginia. Sarah McLachlan with opening act Allison Russell and the Rainbow Coalition. Wow. Sarah’s voice is the same as it was 40 years ago. Happy they are good with non-flash photos with cell phone. If you ever get a chance to see her live, please do!

I’m posting this as a test to see if anyone actually reads anything in Bluesky. Thinking of cancelling it. Have on average 0 interactions with my posts the past year or two. Drop a note or like if you actually see this.

Took this in the week leading up to Easter in Old Ellicott City. When the sun was getting lower in the sky, casting shadows. Does this have a chance in photo competition as a street scene? Thoughts and suggestions welcome. For example, would it be better in black and white or cropped further in?
