Sweet! I got up at 3 to look, but we had total cloud cover. 😔

A vignette from one of the prunings I brought inside from the park. It's a simple single sakura flower with golden anthers. The petals are almost pure white, while on the tree they are normally pink. The photo is soft focus with lots of atmospehere.

I was thinking "Oh Yeah" (first lyrics other than "oh yeah" are "the moon: beautiful"), but yeah, "Moon On Ice" is a good one, too.

Waaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!

It's long been on my list of tired old quips that _might_ have almost been funny or clever or cute one time, long-long ago, but now indicate thoughtlessness and gracelessness, at best.

Also on the list: "step to the front of the line", "anyhoo", "the white stuff".

Why, it's the perfect solution for this New York photographer griping about the new 1960 Valiant:

Four high key colour photos on white backdrop. In all he's sitting in the studio chair, shirtless, eating pastries. In this one, he's eating one that involves a lot of powdered sugar and as expected it's going all over him. he's laughing.

Belly, dusted with sugar and crumbs.

Biting into an éclair.

Licking the cream off his moustache.

okeh, I'll play! Thiz me and @3dbill.bsky.social in 2007:

"Ma vie tabarnak" is »chef's kiss«

Reminds me of an old-old Usenet conversation from when driving games were beginning to get good: someone said they felt uneasy playing them because no seatbelt. I said "Start wearing suspenders, and cinch 'em on the tight side". They reported success.

Two small brilliant yellow flowers growing near the ground.

Ground level view of some irises with a yellow "tongue" ön white petals striped blue.

A tiny figure of a pixie with yellow cap and greenish coat and wings, tucked into a crevice in an enormous old Sakura tree.

White flowers, quite double, with a bold purple picotee on the edge of every petal.

#Eranthis hyemalis, winter aconite; #Iris reticulata 'Katherine Hodgkin'; a tree spirit; #Helleborus 'Rose Quartz'. Everything a bit muddy cause that's spring in Vancouver!

Four BW studio photos, white BG. In all four Mason is in/on a big lumpy old armchair. He's sitting on the edge of the seat facing us, unbuttoning his shirt.

He's sprawled across the arms of the chair in the last stages of removing his socks.

He's sitting on the edge of the chair and has thrown the shirt toward us. It's flying out of the bottom of the frame. His hand that threw it is reaching up out of the frame.

He's sitting back in the chair fully nude with an erection.

A landscape, looking east toward the dawn. The lower 2/3 of the frame is filled with many buildings, power lines, fences, steam plumes, trees, etc etc, with Franklin Street running through it away from us toward Burnaby mountain in the far distance. Above, the sky serenely washed with pink and salmon and blue.
