Hey 👋 it’s Sunday this photo is a backyard shot. There’s something about trees and sky that has always soothed me. As a child I remember laying on the grass under a shade tree and watching the sun flickering through the branches and leaves. #photography #trees #nature #sky #bluesky

These roll clouds Tuesday morning in So. California appeared before the devastating winds arrived. Unusual cloud formations like this are rare, and as I stepped outside to take photos, it felt ominous. The devastating wildfires caused by high winds followed in parts of SoCal #photography #clouds

I love birds! I had a cockatiel for 16 years. I raised her and loved her for all that time, but had to rehome her because I’m immune compromised from my organ transplant. My nephew had her since 2016 and she passed away this year from old age. She was lovely.

I had a feral mother that had kittens in our garage years ago. I couldn’t get near the kittens except for one who walked right up to me, started climbing up my pants and hugged me, and I had him for 11 years. His name was Rascal, and I miss him still.
