I finally have my hard drives sorted -- a hundred thousand-plus images are now accessible once again. So, here's an image from a trip to central Italy, in early February 2024.

My new Mac just arrived. I’m gettting it setup and then I’ll get a temporary workflow going.
Thank you for sticking with me through all of this.

I apologize for the disruption in updates — my desktop computer, which houses all of my photos has been crashing every time I open Lightroom.
I’ve ordered a new laptop, but it’s not yet shipped. In the meantime, I’ve ordered an external drive and will be using that too limp along with my old laptop.
I am grateful to all of you for your support.

Patreon doesn't let me post nudity in public posts, so if you want to see more, you'll have to subscribe.
Here's a SFW-ish image of the amazing Gracie Hagen hanging out of her window. Patrons will see related images later this evening.

I'm asking for your patience and grace for a little while — there's a lot going on and very few things are working right.
Principally, in regards to my photography, both of my computers — a seven year old MacBook Pro and a self-built Hackintosh are failing. I don’t have the funds to replace either, let alone both.

During this particular adventure, Emma hopped right up. onto this laboratory counter and started leafing through what were apparently OSHA guidelines for handling whatever noxious chemicals they were working with in this space.
