Going through my photos for the #BlueSkyArtShow I came across this image from 2014. I was filled with longing to make #thejourney back to when my country wasn't being dissolved by mindless narcissists. It serves as reminder to #resist, use my voice, and encourage others to do the same.

A black-and-white photograph of the United States Capital Building in Washington, D.C. Taken from the roof of the now-closed Newseum at 555 Pennsylvania Avenue. Central to this image is Pennsylvania Avenue, with cars moving one way towards the viewer. On either side of the street are buildings, sidewalks and trees. In the distance, gleaming in the sun, is the U.S. Capital Building on a crisp winter's afternoon. There is a slight tilt-shift effect to this picture. Taken 2014

3 of 3 Today my daughter's sitter came home from college and is showing the song she played in the hospital that caused my daughter to awaken from her coma. Her favorite, Let it Go, from Frozen. Yes that really happened. After nearly 8 months she is fully recovered. Happy Mardi Gras Y'all 💚💛💜.

Color photograph of my daughter on the right and her sitter on the left holding her phone up to display the song she played for my daughter in the hospital after a brain bleed. As soon as she played the song my daughter who was unresponsive before began to try and sing along despite being intubated at the time. She then opened her eyes a minute later. She went on to make a full recovery. Photo taken nearly 8 months after the Brain Bleed.

2 of 3 After a month in ICU, nearly losing her 3 times, a month in rehab and finally months of in home providers.... We were both exhausted, her from healing/ me from the sheer amount of care. Bluesky was my one outlet. Folks were so kind towards to each other. It was my daily hit of dopamine.

Color photograph of a young Haitian/American woman in a hospital bed. She is intubated and has a laser level to control the borehole in her head which keeps the pressure down after a large brain bleed. There are feeding tubes and IVs also attached. She is both sedated/unresponsive and her eyes are closed. She has a large stuffed animal close by for comfort. This was just prior to her awakening. Up to this point she was not responding.

1 of 3 My youngest, who was born with physical/intellectual disabilities,with just some of the Mardi Gras swag from a parade here in NOLA, Saturday. It makes me cry because last August she had a massive brain bleed. During her 5 month recovery I joined BlueSky as a creative outlet.

Color photograph of an young Haitian/American woman entering her house using a blue reverse walker for mobility. She is wearing a green t-shirt and fuchsia metallic leggings with purple sunglasses. Around her neck, wrists and in her hair are Mardi Gras beads. Note: She has always used a walker for mobility and has an intellectual disability.

Good Morning Bluesky Friends This is my submission in #monochrome for the #BlueskyArtShow ....Cheers 🤍🤍🤍

A black and white photograph of a passion vine flower. Taken in New Orleans in 2023, this image is a closeup view of a singular passion vine blossom. In the very center of the flower are both the male and female reproductive parts; the ovary, style, stigma and anther. These stand up proud above the rest of the flower and are surrounded by wiry glossy hair-like structures called the corona. Passion vine's botanical name is Passiflora Edulis.

As I go through photos for my Mom's memorial I'm feeling very melancholy. I miss her so much and it's making me miss my 3 oldest kids in L.A. Mom played organ, flute, piccolo and Irish whistle and was influence on my youngest son. Indulgently sharing his music while riding out some of my grief.

I recently posted about my Mother passing; this was her most cherished possession. It was my brother's. He wrote Mr. Rogers because his show brought him comfort as he lay dying of HIV. He wrote back and sent this. I share because now more than ever we need reminders of good. More in the comments.

Color photo of the Trolley from Mr. Rogers, a copy of the one from the PBS show Mr. Rogers Neighborhood. Signed by Fred Rogers and sent to my brother who died shortly after her received it from HIV at the age of 28 in 1993.

"There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in." Leonard Cohen #BlueskyArtShow #Light #monochrome #neworleans

This is a black and white photograph of a dark hallway with a sliver of light reflecting against the wall and a closed door. Taken in a 110-year-old home in New Orleans, Louisiana. The original glass window panes are wavy and produce unusual reflections, which is what you see reflected from a window which is out of view. The door is four panels with a tassel on the handle. Below the Cypress, wood floors gently reflect the light. 2023

I find my neighbor's solution to saving her beloved Angel's Trumpet, atmospheric and magical. #neworleans #louisiana

A color photograph of a covered plant to protect it from snow and freezing weather. Central to this image is a cut-back Brugmansia plant, known as Angel's Trumpet, under several layers of transparent plastic sheeting that is taped and tied together. Also underneath the sheeting is a string of incandescent lights to prevent frost and freeze damage. The effect is an otherworldly glow, illuminating the snow, trees and the porch surrounding the plant. Taken in New Orleans during the freak snow storm of 2025.

Update on the Snowmageddon New Orleans- Two of my neighbor's pipes froze, mine are holding for now, despite my floors being 37 degrees this morning. It will be below freezing for the next two nights. Here's a pic from warmer times. More snomageddon pics in the comments. Cheers 🤞🥶🤞 #neworleans

Color photo of a home in New Orleans. This picture is the front facade of a double shotgun, camelback house. This home has the traditional shotgun layout, but there is a second story in the back, not visible in this photo. The color scheme for this home is bubblegum pink -on the clapboard siding, bright turquoise - visible on the brick columns and as accents on the trim, vivid yellow surrounds the framing trim, and finally, bright fuchsia for the two front doors. There is a tiny garden with gnome and mushroom statues in the center front. Taken 2023
