GREAT IS THE ENEMY OF GOOD

I’ve given you enough to read lately – Enjoy these 20,000 words

Dirtsmith, October 23, 2023October 25, 2023

[…if a picture is worth a thousand…]

Not exactly photo prose. Maybe photo poetry?

When the puppy you love sees you coming from a distance
My Standing Desk (thanks for sharing Antoine!)
Unexpected Portraiture
Applied Nautical Wisdom (this is a nice mechanic’s toolset when all the pieces are organized, but it has a bad habit of letting drawers slide out)
Photographic explanations for my unavailability to chat
The principal is the same – Ironhorse illustrates the dangers of forgetting that pliers can pinch on each side of the pivot point (wouldn’t want that blood blister a couple inches to the left)
The neighbors’ beautiful trellis heavy with passion fruit
Kinda like the oyster of the fruit world. In fact these folks like to add a little salsa to season theirs as well!
La Fiesta

The Daily Stone

Provenance – I just keep mining an infill spot at my folks’ place

    Thank you for sharing the pictures! Very interesting to get such a glimpse into your daily life.

      Yes! I think it’s fun to do different things with my posts πŸ™‚ It feels like it keeps me creative. Maybe if people read it regularly they won’t know what they will find each day, which can be fun πŸ™‚ (Also everyone has different tastes – some people may not like to read essays, but might enjoy looking at pictures or listening to music or whatever, and so may be able to find SOMETHING that they can enjoy!)

      Give it a try and have fun with it! ☺️
