I like her style! Such lustre to this bottle green satin which is the backdrop to the whisper of black feathers that pattern the cloth. The house of Worth was famous for fabulous fabric and never was this more apparent than in this early #1890s gown. Sold via #KerryTaylorAuct #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

It is almost that time of year again, the annual fashion history advent calendar looms & this year I shall use each day to tell a different imaginary story. Last year this #1810s skater provided the perfect tableau for a tale. Keep your eyes peeled! #FIDMMuseum #FashionHistory 🗃️🪡

A lovely butterfly that I found up above the Bribri community of Salitre in #CostaRica

I believe this is a Tracta Sister (Adelpha tracta)

Love the stunning blue of the Red-spotted Purple butterfly.

Butterflies need vital minerals like sodium that they can’t get from nectar. They get them from rocks, soil, mammal feces or carcasses, animal tears or sweat, decaying plant matter.

My favorite shot from last week's Aurora. Simple and to the point.

The Ladies of Llangollen were wee Irish lesbians who ran off to Wales to set up the most picturesque cottagecore life imaginable. I’m joined on the podcast by the iconic @whodidwhatnowpod.bsky.social to celebrate their delightful tale. pod.link/1489560920/e...

I took almost 1,300 Pipevine Swallowtail photos this year. Hard to pick a favorite. This is one of my favorites.
