A Few Words from Alan Cumming…

#ArtAgainstHate PLEASE SHARE by reposting, or volunteer if you would like to partake in this project. Help build a community with us by raising awareness of the bullying this administration is enabling. Find empowerment in the words they call you. In these chaotic times it’s easy to lose grasp of hope for this troubled country. Yet if we open our hearts and our minds to the lush array of souls and energy that surround us every day we can find common ground. And if we advocate others to try their best to learn just one positive thing about that person who may seem so alien on the surface, perhaps we all will discover that beneath the masks that we hide behind are actually more similarities than differences. And one by one, may we shed these words of hate that are spawned by fear of the unknown. #Model: @alancummingsnaps #Photographers: @StevenTrumon & @GINGERB3ARDMAN #MAKEUP: @makeupartbynoel #Retouch Collab: @shinehorovits #ArtistsAgainstTyranny #SpreadTheWord #LoveTrumpsHate #AmericaTheBeautiful #UnitedNotDivided

From rq, who says That brown ‘flower’ isn’t a flower but a formation of leaves on the pussywillow tree, possibly the result of a disease – there were several of them, like dried out winter roses. Click for full size!

Pye, Take Two.

Pye came back, and this time I got the glare which translates to “Oh. I remember you. Annoying.” He did allow me many shots today though. And his permission helped me to defocus on the crazy making pain of the torn muscles/cracked rib/wtfever I’ve done to myself. Click for full size!

Pye!

Early this morning, I noticed my favourite Grackle was back, Pye, who is leucistic. Pye is extremely touchy in the presence of a camera, so it’s not easy getting a photo. I do know how to get him to show up though, Pye has a serious weakness for any type of baked goods, so I baited the tray with muffin and waited. He finally showed, and hasn’t become more tolerant of shutter noise. Click for full size.
