Diamond Point Overlook from a distance.
This is from my trip to New River Gorge earlier this summer over a long weekend.

Sunrise in the Hocking Hills region of Ohio.

#WaterfallWednesday with one from Ash Cave, a waterfall located in one of my more frequently visited areas.
These falls are pretty dependent on season and weather and I made the trip down because I knew we'd had a lot of rain in the preceding 24 hours, in fact it was still raining when I was there!
It did not disappoint.

Layers upon layers in the Superstition Mountains for #MonochromeMonday
I had headed out in the pre-dawn hours to photograph the Three Sisters in the Superstitions, and while it was fun, I really didn't have a cooperative sky, but I got this on the hike back out as the sun worked its magic across the ridgelines.

I might need to start taking more pictures of trees so I have images for #TreeTuesday.
Don't get me wrong, I like to photograph trees, but doing good woodlands photography can be tough! Definitely room for improvements, both in seeing the scenes and capturing them in an interesting manner.
#HockingHills in December of 2024.

This is one of my favorite waterfalls in one of my frequently photographed locations. Cedar Falls in Hocking Hills, Ohio.
This was from a rainy, early morning visit. Between being early morning and rainy, that really cuts down on the size of the crowds!

OK, #Medievodons, help me find my way in an area I know little about. What is the state of research into late medieval ideas about dying well? Is the ars moriendi still a useful notion? What is a good book or article I can read to orient myself and find helpful further reading?
Context: I’m trying to contextualize something someone in the mid 15th century wrote about his own forthcoming death. Some of the books he owned are germane to the larger matter but not directly to his own text.

For #UncommonInstrumentAwarenessDay, here is the beginning of European ethnomusicology: Johannes Tinctoris, *De inventione et usu musice* (Naples, 1482×3), IV.iv.58: “But that slender and small instrument, drawn in the same way by the Turks from the *lyra* with a more slender and smaller ingenuity, that is called in their language a ‘tambura’, containing a shape like a great spoon, has three strings tuned to an octave, a fifth, and a fourth, struck to be sounded by the fingers or a quill.” (My translation, from https://earlymusictheory.org/Tinctoris/texts/deinventioneetusumusice/#showvars0=true&pane0=Edited&pane1=Translation)

@marlowe @DrALJONES There was a time, when #typesetting was first done on computers, when #footnotes were difficult, time-consuming, and expensive. So publishers preferred #endnotes because they were cheaper. This ceased to be true about 2002, when InDesign 2.0 (and soon after Quark XPress) became able to handle footnotes as easily as Word had been doing all along. So now there’s no excuse for endnotes except “We've always done it that way.” Always!

Y’know, I’ve been on Mastodon for a little over a month now and I feel like I have finally achieved just the right mixture of earnest posts from random people I wouldn’t otherwise know, newsie posts from newsie people, and utter unbridled nonsense from wonderful people who should also probably be in therapy.
Thank you for all you do, followers & followees, to participate in this little online Christmas miracle.
Merry, merry, and shit.
