Good Morning Bluesky! If it’s Friday, it must be time to #scape. This one is from Driftwood Beach on #Jekyllisland, GA. Dozens of #sunrise shutterbugs make the pilgrimage every day, weather permitting, to this #iconic beach #ECK

Not that I have a ton of sympathy for Olivia Nuzzi but this is insane framing: "Woman who complained about privacy violations gets her privacy violated."

Olivia Nuzzi shows off curves for paparazzi photoshoot — after blasting them for violating her privacy

Disgraced political journalist Olivia Nuzzi flaunted her figure in a paparazzi photoshoot in Los Angeles on Tuesday — despite blasting the shutterbugs for violating her privacy that same day.

I guess this means the end of my long-running subscription to the Japanese magazine AIRLINE. Besides occasionally seeing my work appear in it, I will greatly miss seeing the stunning photography from some of Japan's best avgeek shutterbugs.

So much winning.

A beach in Galveston, Texas. Its a sunny day and the sky is blue.
In the foreground a flock of seagulls is standing on the sand, waves softly roll onto the beach. In the background the Pleasure Pier towers over the water with a ferris wheel and a roller coaster on top of it.

[1/2] Hi, friends! As we say goodbye to 2025—or good riddance—I don't have some fancy year-end wrap up of all the fabulous things I've accomplished. At this point, I'm focusing on what's ahead in 2026 in my "keep moving forward" mentality. It's kind of my thing.

Superheroines "accidentally" letting cute shutterbugs snap "secret" pictures of them getting naked or masturbating, and being "blackmailed" (read allowing it to happen) into sex

Wishing all my fellow leaf peepin' shutterbugs and nature photographers a very happy first day of #autumn! Who knew you could find scenes like this in #Utah, known for it's desert landscapes, but in the high elevations, dense old growth aspen forests abound in the #Wasatch Range. Happy fall, ya'll🍁

Welcome to my "Where It All Began" 1.5K Followers DTIYS Celebration!

I never thought I would reach this milestone! I am truly grateful for all the people I have met along the way and this amazing fandom! Thank you so much🌟💖🌟

#TynderDTIYSBeginnings | #RadioApple #AppleRadio

Rules in the Thread ⬇️

Tynder’s “Do This In Your Style” 1.5K Celebration artwork “Where It All Began”.

Traditionally done with ink, pencil crayon, Copic, and acrylic paint.

Alastor and Lucifer sit on some mossy grass with two cattails on the side.

Alastor is sitting crossed legged and Lucifer is sitting side saddle with one leg more raised. Between them they are holding hands; their fingers loosely entwined.

Lucifer is smiling cheerfully up at Alastor and has 6 cockatiels perched on him, 3 yellow and 3 classic colour varieties. One is hanging almost upside down on the brim of his hat happily chirping at Alastor who is smiling back at the little bird. Another two are seen sitting on the top of and behind Lucifer’s large hat. One large cockatiel has perched on Lucifer’s outstretched free left hand (his wedding band is visible) and another in the crook of his arm.

In Alastor’s lap he is petting the CursedCat who has a large toothy grin and watching the birds perched on Lucifer with its big bulging red eyes. The cockatiel perched on Lucifer’s hand has noticed the strange looking red cat watching them.

A little bit about the artwork!

It features the 3 most important pieces to me that kickstarted my introduction to the Hazbin Hotel fandom community, breaking my nearly 2 year long artblock, and RadioApple.

It started with the #CursedCatAlastor meme, then Lucifer was introduced in Episode 5 and I just clicked with the guy and the piece "Lucifer's Cockatiels" came to be and broke my artblock, and then my fate was sealed when Alastor swore at him and I fell hard for RadioApple and made "RadioApple Dollies."

I never thought I’d be where I am today all because of a cannibalistic radio deer demon and a small duck loving King of Hell. The friends I’ve met, the art, and stories, have been truly special and I will treasure that always.

These two are tied in 1st place for my favourite character; I truly can’t decide between the two. Each fulfill something special as a comfort character for me.

I love how both are silly poses to get the perfect angle for the shot xD and the name shutterbugs has a good ring to it✨ Thank you so much!💚

Clinging to the edge. The first rule of forest photography is find a focal point and cut through the clutter. good advice for shutterbugs and the rest of us this chaotic time. Today take good care of yourself.
