With indirect lighting, ripples and waves on water are so satisfying to watch and photograph. This was from a canoe camping trip my dad and I took down the upper portion of Namekagon river in May of 2019.

A couple of weeks ago I went on a bike ride for an errand in town, and since I had to use studded tires just to bike along the regional trail, I took a side trip out onto Lake Minnetonka. It was quite cold, but I sacrificed some finger comfort to get a few cool shots with my cellphone. The snowdrifts had some of the wildest windswept forms in them I have ever seen. I had a fun little adventure biking around Big Island as well.

When I learned about Alex Pretti and that he was a member of the cycling community and a fellow bikepacker, I felt grief at the loss of a kindred spirit, and considered trying to organize a bike ride in his honor. Of course others in the Minneapolis cycling community had the same idea, so I'll be heading downtown to join in on a ride on Saturday organized by Angry Catfish Bicycle. It's heartening to see how far this idea has spread from here already.

Breakfast At Tiffany's / Breakfast Antipathies is great. But would you please explain the second joke for those of us who don't know the reference?

That's a great photo. What kind of lens did you use?

That's rather serendipitous, as I was just at a foraging talk yesterday and asked the expert about this, and though he didn't have any specific info, he had some of the same theories.

Twenty years ago I used to be able to find wild plums all over the area where I grew up, but haven't been able to when I went back to those same places in recent years. I'm betting that they just got crowded out by invasive plants like buckthorn. That's pretty sad.
