I've having good luck with squirrels on sunny days with harsh light, I'm wondering the shadows disrupt their outlines making it harder for hawks to swoop down on them

Coming up on Independence Day, here's a runner celebrating America's 250ᵗʰ; I'm planning to make to to Independence Day celebrations in Groton today and Cortland tomorrow

I can post a #sliceoflife once in a while, can't I? Parking is so brutal on central campus there's a reserved spot by the bus stop in front of Uris hall just for psychology research subjects!
#photo #photography

I moved this traffic cone to a good spot on the road by a sidewalk, it is light yellow, not orange, and has a white sign attached that reads in red underlined text RESEARCH SUBJECT PARKING ONLY

A single purple flower is near the exact center with flowers faded or about the open below it and blurry patches of light, dark and green behind

Olivia and I were driving back from Trumansburg to celebrate summer bounty last week and I saw this flower universe in front of Indian Creek Farm

In the center left a lovely red zinnia seen almost side on in good focus, past that a vast field of blurry color splotches of different colored flowers and foliages in the distance

I've only seen this spectacular 𝐴𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑢𝑚 at Minns Garden because it's not for real, they paint them red after they go to seed, the other day I was out there getting them with identifiable architectural backgrounds -- that's Weill Hall behind
#photo #photography

Red painted allium flower looks like an exploding firework against a deliberately blown out background of a building with a Mondrian-like array of dark and greenish windows near the bottom and a diagonal row of windows near the upper left and bits of green foliage in the upper right and bottom

Middle aged man with a lot of curly hair flowing around his shoulders is wearing a green shirt and maroon hoodie and a boonie cap with two orange and white fox ears on top; to the left you can see a bit of a street lamp like the one the witch trashed in Narnia and on the right a building that wants to be seen in two point perspective.
