Have been playing Debí Tirar Más Fotos non-stop for the past day but kept wondering why it seemed to finish so quickly or randomly skipping songs?
Finally looked at the track-list and now I understand! Almost makes me want to turn 'explicit restrictions' off of our family smart speaker 🤣

🗺️🧵- I have just received quite possibly the nicest surprise of my entire cartographic career: a copy of the atlas Mappemondes from the talented cartographer Xemartin Laborde. Xemartin, I am so grateful you have gifted me your gorgeous book, it is a true beauty, full of inspiration and information

Completely amateur astrophotography🌘. Completely genuine reaction 🌒!
To say we were overwhelmed, amazed, and had our greatest expectations exceeded is an understatement. We may have just become eclipse chasers!

Maybe the coolest intersection of my interests was that they were handing out copies of @mappinmickie ‘s beautiful eclipse map at the @MarchMadnessWBB Tourney Town yesterday. My family alone picked up 4 copies! #Eclipse2024 #mapsinthewild

Telling my kindergartner I had to quickly update a map of an 🌋 after school yesterday and he goes "I know, the eruption in Iceland. Kai told me today during work". So proud to be raising such a nerdy...

An honor to wrap up the year w/ this beautiful Alhambra piece. Text & photos are just spectacular, and I was so excited to contribute a few maps to what I like to call "a Fernando special". Getting to work on these intricate and absorbing projects is what makes @NatGeo so unique

Driving East on 81 and wishing there was a way to easily view @USGS topo quads on top of a map app so I could ID these little peaks! Any #cartographers or #30DayMapChallenge folks have any fave #topography 📱 tools?

Before #NACIS2023 in Pittsburgh part deux begins this evening I had to dig up my map quilt square from our 2014 @NACIS annual meeting. While I still stand by my pop-art theme, I gotta say this color scheme over halftone relief is giving me vertigo! #cartography
