  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 21: Fall!

    Wooden bench in a park, with yellow leaves covering the ground and some on the bench. There is a paved trail in the background, with yellowing trees throughout the photo.

    There is nothing like the crunch of leaves underfoot as you’re strolling around a local park during the Autumn / Fall season. πŸŒ³πŸ‚ The only thing missing is a pumpkin-spice flavored drink. πŸ˜†β˜•οΈ #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 20: Disruption!

    Red stop sign in the foreground, with road names mounted on top: 'Rozier St' and 'Linn Dr'; a True Value hardware store is in the background, the parking lot right behind the sign.

    It’s always good to stop when see a sign, unless you want to cause a dangerous disruption. πŸ›‘ Bonus points when the intersection contains your last name… 🀣 #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 19: Edge!

    View of the sky and ocean, from an airplane; the ocean is a deep blue/purple below, with a hint of sunlight appearing on the water from behind the clouds, while the white wing of the plan is across the middle of the image.

    Any time I fly, I always feel like I’m at the edge of the world, especially when going over large bodies of water. This is the sunrise from my first trip to Europe, ten-ish years ago, flying into Amsterdam. πŸŒ₯️✈️🌊 #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 18: Fabric!

    Projection of the TV show 'Seinfeld' onto a sheet, outside, during the end of twilight / the start of evening. The sky is a deep purple, fading to black, with some fairy lights strung up in the right of the image, while the sheet with the TV projection is in the middle, attached to the roof of a house with white siding.

    Taken during the first summer of the Pandemic, when we were all having backyard gatherings, the friend who was bringing over their projection screen couldn’t make it so we used a sheet instead. πŸ“ΊπŸ˜· #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 17: Intense!

    Person holding onto wire attached to to the rock behind him, on a trail in the mountains, leaning over the steep hillside off the trail. Trees in the back of the photo, long with the clouds and a view of distant mountains / hills.

    It was rather intense watching my friend pose for this photo, I was panicking the entire time but he really wanted that photo while we were hiking in the Smoky Mountains. β›°πŸ˜± #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 16: Oof!

    Fire contained within a metal fire-pit, with glowing embers and a few logs with flames licking upwards.

    All I can say is that falling into a glowing fire-pit would result in far more than saying “oof!". πŸ”₯ #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 15: Red

    Rectangular shot-glass made out of ice, with red liquid inside, in front of a teddybear-like ice sculpture on a bar made of ice, sitting next to another ice sculpture (a random carving) and the '2' and '0' also made out of ice.

    Taken back in 2020, we got in / out of QuΓ©bec right before the Pandemic lock-downs in March of that year. Whilst visiting the Great White North, we stopped for a drink in the Ice Hotel and had some Caribou. πŸ˜‹πŸ₯ΆπŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡«πŸ‡· #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 14: Statue

    Stone statue in a tai chi pose, with public bikes in the background on the left and cars parked along a street going up a hill in the background on the right.

    While wandering around MontrΓ©al back in 2014, my partner and I stumbled upon the Tai Chi Single Whip statue in Victoria Square. πŸ—ΏπŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡«πŸ‡· #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 13: Glowing

    Sunset on one of the Great Lakes (the sun covered by clouds, casting a yellow-orange glow across the sky), with a sailboat in the distance and a fishing boat in the forground.

    Nothing like a glowing sunset on one of the Great Lakes. 🌀️πŸ›₯️ Took this on my summer vacation. #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 12: Panic

    Plastic dongle on a table, with three buttons on it; 'off' in grey, 'away' in blue, and 'panic' in red.

    Per the “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” one should never panic, hence the security system. 🚨 #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 11: Retrospect

    Series of locks on a rail, on a bridge, with a slight view of the river below, in Paris.

    It’s been a little more than ten years since I was in Paris and I have to wonder what became of the couples who symbolized their relationships with these locks. πŸ€”πŸ‡«πŸ‡·πŸ” #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 10: Cycle

    Two bibles in the snow, one showing the handle-bars and the seat, while the other, only one of the handle-bars is poking out of the snow. The sidewalk is visible in the lower-right of the photo and cars are in the upper-left, along with a sign in French.

    Winter in QuΓ©bec has a tendency to cover everything and clearly, some people should have brought their bikes inside. πŸ˜†β„οΈπŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸš² #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 9: Language

    View of a split-flap display board (looking up from below) with times, places, and destinations in French, along with a clock on the left side of the board.

    Given this photo was taken around ten years ago, I’m not sure why I took it but this was the view of an arrival/departure board at a train station in Paris. πŸš„πŸ‡«πŸ‡· Now if only I’d learned French… 😒 #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 8: Yonder

    View of a desert, with distant hills in the background, rocks and short brush in the foreground, and a sliver of a small creek in the middle.

    Another one from photo library, this view into the yonder was taken near the Four Corners monument in the South West of the States in 2019. πŸŒ΅β›°οΈ #mbsept

  • πŸ“Έ September 2023 Micro.Blog photo challenge. Day 7: Panorama

    Panoramic view of a water fall on the right, with a bridge going over the falls, wooden steps in the lower-right of the photo, leading down to a covered octagon pavilion on a hill-side, and a large body of water in the center of the photo, flowing out to a river in the distance, in the upper-left of the photo, where several bridges can be seen.

    A panorama view of Montmorency Falls, just outside of Ville de QuΓ©bec (Quebec City) in Canada, as it tumbles down into the basin and flows into the Fleuve Saint-Laurent (St. Lawrence River), on a sunny day in August. #mbsept
