  • The Moomins and the UFO

    I was taking photos of objects on my desk and this configuration of Little My and The Groke from Tove Jannsen’s Moomin standing in front of Fox Mulder’s UFO poster from The X-Files gave me a chuckle. I thought, if only there had been a “The Moomins and the UFO” book. A quick Google search reminded me that there had been an episode of the Japanese 1990-1991 Moomin anime in which UFOs visited Moominvalley titled “A Close Encounter With Aliens.” A child alien visits, officialdom searches for him, the Moomin characters discover his technology, Moominmama is accidentally shrunk, Stinky steals the shrink ray machine, it is destroyed, and the child alien’s parents show up to collect their little one and set things right. I want to believe (in Moominvalley).

  • Mose and His Cousin

    Black and white cat named Mose looking down at the viewer. A pillow with an image like Mose is above him.

    After walking six miles on Monday, I was lying on the floor of our apartment. I looked up and saw our cat Mose looking down at me from this perch on his cat tree. Above Mose is a tuxedo cat pillow designed by Elsa Chang. Together, imagine my surprise at seeing two upside down cats staring down at me. I righted the image before posting it.

  • Figures Within a Face Artwork Found in Trash on Brooklyn Sidewalk

    Figures and faces artwork on a bookshelf among trash on a Brooklyn sidewalk, Feb. 2024.

    I saw this figures within a face artwork drawn on a white bookshelf among some trash on the sidewalk in Brooklyn yesterday. Its inventiveness caught my attention despite carrying a load of groceries back home.

  • Full Moon Rising

    Photo of the full moon on 24 Feb. 2024 taken with a Panasonic Lumix G85 camera and 45-150 lens.

    Last Saturday night, I hung out of our apartment window to capture this image of the full moon with my Lumix G85 camera with a 45-150 lens. If I had gone outside, found a straight view, and used the tripod, I know that I could have got a clearer and more focused shot. This was just a bit of fun. Next chance, I’ll do it right.

  • Mose Wonders

    Our Mose doesn’t always know what’s going on, but he seeks to understand with wide eyed wonder.
