Why is it always a spider or a bat? Do boys ever like butterflies?

I think I can now see that thin line where the water meets the sky, but I probably wouldn't have caught it if you hadn't pointed it out. Beautiful shot!

Whether it's boisterously loud or a quiet Diwali, may the light reach those who need it the most. Happy Diwali! 🪔

Looks like this alien has decided to skip the traffic and enjoy its commuter benefits instead.

It's good to be a young pumpkin in a gloomy world.

A young boy dressed in a bright orange pumpkin costume and hat explores a rocky area in Central Park, NY, on a dark autumn evening. Silhouettes of oak trees stand in the background.

Remembering a certain lotus in the midst of a storm.

#AlphabetChallenge #WeekPForPink #EastcoastKin #photography #flowers #bloomscrolling #PhotoHour

A close-up photo of a vibrant pink lotus flower bending sideways in the strong gusts of a storm.
Its delicate yet hardy pink petals, shimmering with raindrops, wrap around the light green receptacle at the center.
Surrounding the flower are sage green leaves of the lotus plant, which float on the dark surface of the pond.

Lol, maybe I thought it's young because its behavior is gentler compared to the lot around my area. 😂

...They’ve tied that name to their cultural heritage for so long that changing their perspective is challenging especially when they are manipulated into believing that the woke police are belittling Italian immigrants' contributions and trying to erase their history and cancel their parades.

The oldest strategy ever- when you dehumanize certain people, it becomes easier to justify their torture, killing, & subjugation as collateral damage, in the name of exploration, etc. But as much as there's a concerted effort to rewrite history by some, for many people, it's just that...(cont'd ⬇️)
