#TodaysBeauty is the two humpbacks who came cruising past Lime Kiln Lighthouse today.
Also, the sunset was beautiful again on Dec. 14. 2024 marks ten years after Sandy Hook. I pushed the listening-station button in honor of Jessica Rekos and her classmates again.

#TodaysBeauty is a double tweet with some of the images I took at Lime Kiln Lighthouse on Friday when J and L pods came by and hung out for awhile in the heavy flood-tide current. Plus a bonus sound track.
Tweet No. 2.
Oh what the heck, there's enough for a third tweet.

The #TodaysBeauty feature is intended as an antidote to the ugly world I report on. I hope it's helped.

Here's a thread of my Top 20 shots from 2021. 1/ J Pod coming past Lime Kiln on Sept. 12.
2/ Eagles are common on San Juan Island, so everyone with a camera gets shots of them here. But getting the right combination of light and pose is always special.
3/ This black oystercatcher on the rocks at Lime Kiln was unperturbed by my presence. I was shooting orcas but this was my best pic that day.

This year I decided I needed an antidote to the ugliness that appears regularly on my timeline. Knowing that getting a daily dose of natural beauty is key to my own mental health, I began sharing a daily (well, sorta) photo of the beauty I’ve seen over the years: #TodaysBeauty.
Over half of the #TodaysBeauty shots have been from my photo archives, but I also posted a large number of pix that were contemporaneous. So to celebrate the New Year, here is a thread of some of my favorites, mostly taken this year, month by month. Enjoy!

#TodaysBeauty is a J pod orca (pretty sure it's a female, ID coming, hopefully) breaching next to Lime Kiln Lighthouse today. First time we've seen these folks since April. Image
Here's the sequence preceding this shot. ImageImageImageImage
Plus, of course, the coup de grace. ImageImage

Ahhh, #TodaysBeauty, just in time.
This is J Pod of the Southern Resident killer whales (an endangered population) passing by Lime Kiln Point Lighthouse on the western side of San Juan Island.
More about that here.
