Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 31/10/2025Dear Google photos app: I am never trying to take a picture of the dust on a window. Focusing on it is not helping. 020
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 06/05/2025I appreciate that cats spend so much time licking their butts. It makes me confident they're putting clean things on my face. 020
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 25/04/2025That's awesome! I've had to filter-branch to move subdirectories and an octopus merge to bring the different origins together. 10x more elegant, I want this. 010
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 22/04/2025This sizable Pileated Woodpecker was hammering on a hollow log next to the trail. Loud, bright, hard to miss. I went a few steps away to watch strangers get excited spotting them. 1202
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 07/04/2025Waxwings hit up the mountain ash berries today. An intimidating reminder that they outnumber me. 010

Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 10/03/2025You both wanted to exit the conversation politely but ended up dating for three months because it's the culture. 020
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 10/03/2025Flirting in Montreal is just the local Minnesota nice. 130
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 25/02/2025Sometimes you just get lucky. This blue jay with its meal. Me, with this picture of this blue jay with its meal. You, reading this post about my picture of this blue jay with its meal. 161
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 20/02/2025Thanks for this, shared it around with a few anxious folk. "Five bridges are closing at the same time," is a lot quicker to say than the truth, not surprised it got around so fast. 110
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 20/02/2025I read this as Catholic and thought, "Yup. Just go to confession." 110
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 11/02/2025"Timeliness is thoughtfulness," I remind myself again hitting send on a text that isn't perfect — but maybe didn't need an hour of revisions. 020

Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 22/01/2025Today I learned that Facebook has settings you can change to show less low-quality and unoriginal content. The default settings are... not less. 140
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 14/01/2025There are many photos of tonight's wolf moon. But this one is mine. 060
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 25/12/2024I love the light at winter's minimum up north. Here the sun peaks at 13 degrees above the horizon so sunrise slowly eases into sunset. This looks due south at 1230. Waking up before the sun is miserable, but the light all day can be ethereal. 050
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 19/12/2024Yay! Make the switch permanent so they stop spreading litter on the floor. I love top entry litter boxes. 100
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 10/12/2024Not to worry, there will be a new quantum release of Teams to prevent that. 000
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 09/12/2024"I promised the boy I wouldn't tell anyone." - My brother, declining to tell an embarassing story about his 6 week old son. He's gonna be such a good dad. 050
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 06/12/2024I like the technical aspect of this type of photography, thinking: This will work out later in post. I have the tools and process and present this how I want. 040
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 06/12/2024I've been using Hugin to stitch panoramas together since 2005. This shot of Calgary is a top 5 result to my tastes. 030
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 06/12/2024Friend: Why are we stopping the car? Me: 👇 (Calgary, 2022) 240
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 06/12/2024According to NVidia over 80% of their revenue is from Linux powered computers. So, probably. 120
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 04/12/2024I once borrowed a car from someone in Christchurch, NZ. They'd never been to the west side of the island in 35 years, because 3 hours was, "Too far." 010
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 03/12/2024Waiting for more data, but after changing my handle to a domain fewer bots are adding me as a follow. Kinda wanna spin up some bots just to measure this effect... 050
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 30/11/2024Hard work and patience led to this lucky shot. By, "hard work and patience," I mean holding down the shutter button and terabyte sized storage cards. 070

Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 27/11/2024This reasoning also explains why Montreal is the most fashionable city in Canada. Dense, walkable, cheap rent (for Canadian metros). 090
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 27/11/2024Seeing as on Mac that's CMD + Shift + V, I think you're remembering from somewhere else ;) 120
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 22/11/2024Mt. Collie, my favourite mountain. a few years later I got to reach its summit. 020
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 21/11/2024It's very hard for me to spend less than an hour in a butterfly conservatory. Only 1% of the photos turn out well, but if you take a few thousand each visit... 010
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 20/11/2024Big birds are much easier to catch in flight as the autofocus has more subject to deal with. 010
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 20/11/2024When I come across older references to "playing dice" I pretend the author meant DnD. 010
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 19/11/2024After forgetting ice axes at the top of the climb I had to hike up around the waterfall and was blessed by this moment - 2018 040
Matthias Stone @matthiasstone.com · 15/11/2024Surprisingly easy shot as they hovered from spot to spot on the hunt. 020
