As I plod along thinking with my little pea brain about all the turmoil in the world today, I long for the good old days of the Triassic. At least we didn't have Trump. All artwork and photographs are my own, though you are welcome to share.

The Gila River in New Mexico. They've been wanting to dam this beautiful river for decades. Luckily, wiser heads prevailed and the river still runs free. For now. This shot taken with a film camera. #GilaRiver #NewMexico #landscapes #FilmPhotography #photography

Water striders spend most of their lives on the water's surface. Tiny hairs on their legs and feet repel water and allow them to run on the surface. #WaterStriders #TrueBugs #Gerridae #insects #macro #photography #Arizona
