Janet @bluemoon3143.bsky.social shares a beautiful, and favorite shot of the moon and Venus for the AlphabetChallenge WeekYforYearPast:
The moon and Venus. A favorite shot from February 2025. As much as I love a dramatic, cloud filled sunset, this kind of night sky is my favorite. So peaceful 🌙✨️

Enough conversation about graffiti and tagging. Let’s talk about pure unadulterated Mother Nature at its most shining example. Crater Lake does it for me every time.💕😊

This is a comfort knit, done just for the fun of it, destined to be a jar cozy for keeping my tea warm.

Ball bands long lost to time, deep stash 75/25 sock yarn.

Colourwork from Selbu Patterns, pattern itself doodled on the fly.

In my excitement at finally seeing these Tibetan Snowcocks, I took neither a good photo nor a video! This was up at 17,000 ft with Gokyo Lake below and Everest somewhere in the background!
