Adjusting The Line Up, State of the Blog

Friday

Drop: Fitness posts for the first Friday.

Add: A fourth photo post.

Why? Posts were becoming same of a sameness. Daily walks. Check. Monthly 5K. Check. Other activities – swimming, rowing machine, biking, tai chi, stretching – not as often as I’d like, but more than none. Check. All good and useful to do. Not the stuff of riveting reporting. Particularly right now as our daily mileage is posted with the Virtual Tevis. [Archives]

In order to keep up with photography every week, I will expand from the SLR photos. Options include interesting shots with phone camera, as yesterday. Post production. Photo projects. Photography is a wide field. I should be able to fill four posts each month. We shall see.

Ideally, I’d be posting horses, or horse-related, content each day. That would be more on topic.

No.

Ideally ideally, I’d be so busy riding my horses and writing my novel that I would post once a week, if that.

But I digress.

Sunday

Currently, fractal alphabet every other week, alternating with an art adventure post & a design post the other weeks. Fifth Sundays are extra.

I have thoughts for two more alphabets after this one to keep me going well into 2026. I wonder where we will all be then.

Update. Gonna drop the Graphic from the Sunday subtitle, for the sake of simplicity. Decided while proofing tomorrow’s post.

Thursday

Dropped State of the Now a while back. [Back on Social Media, Deleted Project]

When Your Phone Takes a Photo, Photography

Photography of the outside world. Nick Brandt. Wildlife & nature photographer. Images on the effect of climate change. Poke around site for behind-the-scenes images. These photos are a major production. Per him, walks the walk. Returns royalties to portrait subjects. Projects regrassed & carbon neutral. I saw him on a virtual gallery talk hosted by Lehigh University Art Galleries, 18 March 2024.

Feed Buckets, Colors, and Once Again Proving That The Brain Is Weird

Awareness of the outside world. Helmet Watch. TV Commercial has helmet & western saddle. RINVOQ: Disrupt :60 TV

Remember back when I was having trouble telling the difference between the red feed bucket and the green feed bucket? [Feed Buckets and Color Theory]

We got a gray bucket. [On A Day About Food Another Post About Feed]

Gray bucket has gone the way of all things.

We are back to having red & green feed buckets.

Easy peasey. Red is Milton. Green is Rodney.

I remember there being a problem, but not a shred of it remains.

Weird.

Onwards!

Fractal Alphabet Q, Graphic Art

Art of the outside world. Museum of the American Revolution: Rare, Newly Discovered Eyewitness Sketch of Continental Army Sheds New Light on Wartime Life, March 26, 2024. Also articles in The Washington Post & The Philadelphia Inquirer, both of which I could read, then were behind paywalls. YMMV. Hat tip to M.

Color is quicksilver.
