The eclipse as seen from Chelsea this afternoon, very minor but still cool non the less. I was out by the Civil War Memorial which is in the second shot and the musket is partially poking into the sun in the third @universalhub.com

Yeah I was going to say... I am pretty sure that over the years they have often done this. Generally goofy shows that fit in with the vibe

The Bunker Hill Day parade in Charlestown was over 90 degrees but was a great time. I especially enjoyed the statue of liberty head and the Bunker Hill monument floats. Especially when the monument lined up with its twin! @universalhub.com

I was finally able to visit Madhubala the elephant at Chelsea City Hall. The sculptures were hand made in India featuring an elephant that was saved from dire conditions and the @fourpawsint.bsky.social exhibit is migrating across the country. It almost blends in! @universalhub.com

Yes, it is very dependent on cloud cover, fog and humidity. I had my 600mm for that shot and it I still had to crop in.

I became the President of the Governor Bellingham Cary House in #chelseama last year and since then our board has pushed to open up the house museum more, increase the diversity of voices represented in the house and brought more guests through our doors... this week we were visited by 4th graders!

Using Bluesky more now that Facebook also seems to be going full right wing. I've been using this as my Teitter replacement for photography posting and sharing that I want to be more public. Not sure if I'll migrate over my general FB posts or not but want yo be ready

That makes a lot of sense. I'm not really up on the current market but I remember back in the day Nintendo games would take a few to many years between titles but when it hit everyone was super excited for the new version. You'd play the old one just for nostalgia but it never matched up
