Tree swallows are some of my favorite subjects. They're fast, so when I get a good photo of them, they never disappoint. #birds #photography #birdsofbluesky
Tree swallow with brown wings, bright blue head and white body flies against the blurred background of branches and grass.

Just randomly thinking about Mother Mary and yep, still the best movie I've seen this year. Might be in all ten places of my "best of year" list.

Why is it that Irene Adler has never been done justice one singular time across Sherlock adaptations? She's either useless or a villain, and a love interest every time. This is my Roman Empire. #justiceforireneadler

N.K. Jemisin is the first author to win the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 3 consecutive yrs for her Broken Earth series & first to win for all 3 novels in a trilogy. Recipient MacArthur Genius Grant, 2020. She was born #OTD in 1972. Happy Birthday @nkjemisin.bsky.social 🎈 #SciFi #Fantasy #BookSky
A montage portrait of science fiction author N.K. Jemisin. On the left, she appears in a close-up photo with long, dark braided hair, wearing earrings, a delicate necklace with a pendant, a deep maroon sweater, and a shimmering green scarf draped around her neck. She has a calm, confident expression and gazes directly at the camera against a softly blurred dark background. To the right are three stacked book covers of her works. Top: The Fifth Season (The Broken Earth trilogy), with a dark, textured design and metallic title. Middle: The Obelisk Gate, featuring an intricate, glowing red-and-purple circular mandala-like emblem. Bottom: The Stone Sky, showing a dramatic stormy sky with a massive floating obelisk.

The overall composition highlights the author alongside prominent covers from her award-winning Broken Earth series.
