I wrote a few words to say goodbye to Star Trek: Discovery.

Haven’t watched the final episode yet, but regardless, the journey was incredible. I’m a tiny bit sad to see this wonderful crew go 🥲

ENJOY!

Pixel art of a secluded forge, nestled behind ancient stone walls, where hidden medieval secrets breathe in the warmth of flickering flames. Smoke curls and swirls upward in graceful tendrils, weaving a tapestry through the dimly lit workshop, casting enigmatic shadows on scattered anvils and meticulously arranged tools. Blazing fires illuminate the scene, their golden tongues of light dancing upon rough-hewn wooden beams, painting the rustic space with hues of molten brilliance. The air is thick with the scent of hot iron, sweat, and woodsmoke, a symphony of labour and craft. Each breath carries the whispers of untold stories, forged in the crucible of time. Here, in this quiet sanctuary, the blacksmith's soul finds its voice, resonating through the clang of hammers and the hiss of cooling metal. The warmth radiates not just from the forge, but from the heart of an age-old tradition, glowing bright in the embrace of shadows.

Another daily done! :) Sanctuary in the wild.

ENJOY!

Pixel art of a serene, rustic hut cradled deep within an unexplored jungle, where vibrant foliage sways to the symphony of exotic wildlife and hidden whispers of ancient lore. Smoke spirals lazily from the thatched roof, carrying the fragrant whispers of medicinal herbs and sacred incense, weaving through the dense canopy like a shaman's breath. The jungle breathes around this sanctum, where rich earth tones and natural fibres blend in a harmonious dance, creating an inviting cocoon of organic textures and soothing hues. This sacred space is bathed in the soft, flickering light of candles, casting warm glows upon the walls adorned with relics of time. Within the cosy confines, shadows play upon the earthen floor, mingling with the aromas that tell tales of ancient wisdom. The air is thick with the essence of life and healing, a place where the pulse of ancient traditions meets the tender touch of modern remedies.

ENJOY!

Pixel art of a mystical forest scene, where the trees stand tall and ancient on either side of a small pond, their gnarled branches reaching out like twisted fingers. The grass around the pond is long and wild, swaying gently in the breeze that rustles through the leaves of the towering trees. The sky above is clear and bright, casting a warm glow over the entire scene. The water in the pond is calm and still, reflecting the verdant greenery around it like a mirror. The forest itself is lush and thriving, filled with all manner of flora and fauna that call this place home. The beauty and tranquillity of nature in its purest form - untouched by human intervention and brimming with life. It's as if time has stood still here, allowing one to lose themselves in the serene landscape and feel at peace with the world around them.

Pixel art of a majestic castle, bathed in the soft hues of sunset. The castle, with its towering pillars and arched doorways, stands as a beacon against the backdrop of the encroaching night sky. A moat surrounds the castle, reflecting the golden glow of the setting sun. A stone bridge connects the two sides of the castle, serving as a path for three knights. Their silhouettes etched against the fading light. The knights appear to be heading towards the castle, perhaps returning from a day's battle. The colours are vivid yet soothing - the blues of the night sky, the greens of the distant trees, the grays of the stone castle and bridge, and the warm oranges of the sunset.

Microsoft has announced a new (preview status) Windows "feature" to screenshot your work every few seconds. So you can look at it later.

It'll remain on device and locked to your user which... in no way makes it actually safe.

The good? news is Ars Technica reports some base technical specs you'll need to use it, so your current PC has high odds of being immune even when it's rolled out.

Also it doesn't record DRM which is the most Microsoft thing EVER.

ENJOY!

Pixel art of a majestic Mayan jungle river temple, where deep within the lush, emerald rainforest, a stone colossus rises from the earth's sacred embrace. Towering above a sea of verdant foliage, its intricately carved doorways whisper secrets of ancient civilizations, tales etched in stone and time. Golden light, like liquid fire, filters through the dense mosaic of leaves, casting ethereal beams that dance upon the temple’s weathered stones, illuminating a mystique hidden away for millennia. The air is thick with the scent of moss and earth. Here, nature and history intertwine, a symphony of silence and whispers, where the temple stands as a silent sentinel, a keeper of forgotten lore. Shadows play upon its surface, revealing and concealing in a perpetual dance, as if the spirits of the ancients themselves infuse the air with their presence. In this enchanted realm, the past and present meld into a timeless dream.

ENJOY!

Pixel art of a ghostly Western town, where a deserted schoolhouse stands, frozen in the embrace of time. Weathered wooden boards whisper tales of yesteryears, their creaks echoing the laughter of children long gone. Windows, now boarded up, conceal secrets of past lessons, while vines weave through shattered panes, reclaiming what was once vibrant with life and knowledge. Melancholy drapes like a heavy shroud over this former hub of learning, now reduced to an eerie relic of forgotten dreams. Shadows waltz and pirouette across the crumbling structure, their dance a sombre memory of bustling days. As the sun dips below the horizon, it casts a warm orange glow upon the desolate landscape, painting the scene with hues of nostalgia and sorrow.

From my 100 Strangers Project - Stone (his name) manages this tattoo business. A few days after I shot this, I saw him again and we had a conversation. Turns out he is a photographer too. We talked about it for a while. He looked me up on Facebook and we’ve now been friends for 10 years.
