I am so enamoured by my ancestral homeland. I love seeing pictures of all the beautiful places, both urban and wild, be they new, old or ancient.

Real snowflakes photographed in early 1900s! #BeautyBreak
When the name “Snowflake Bentley” is mentioned in Louise Penny‘s newest book, The Black Wolf, one must Google it. Was delighted to see that this first photographer of snowflakes was real and the amazing Maria Popova had written about him: https://www.themarginalian.org/2020/01/19/wilson-bentley-snowflakes/

Sontag‘s book of critical essays concerning photography, whether it should be considered a fine art, its historical relationship to painting, the illusory and distancing qualities of a photo, the widespread public acceptance of the photographer chronicling the private, debates as to what should be photographed, as well as the consequences of a modern world obsessed with “capturing reality” even if a definition of “reality” will never be reached.

Happy Monday! Here‘s a long exposure #beautybreak for anyone who needs it. 🤣 Also, I love it when I find plants growing from rocks.

My awesome co-worker randomly got me a shirt!

I found this memoir fascinating. Set against the backdrop of her family story, Sally Mann reflects on how she assigns meaning to both her photographs and her life.
