Beautiful Stockholm at night, looking west from the Baltic Sea towards Gamla Stan, with the iconic City Hall in the distance, on left, with the three golden crowns on top, which are the national emblem of Sweden. In my previous life, I was definitely born and raised there.

A reminder of why I and all of my savvy, sensible friends -like @UdenCatherine- push back hard vs. the serial nonsensical public policy + misanthropy emanating from #HollywoodFL City Hall the past few years, both the elected Mayor and City Commission, as well as the city's often imperious, feckless, thin-skinned highly-paid bureaucrats. THIS! ☀️🌴🏖️😎. Photo: March 2025, Hollywood Beach, Florida.

On warm South Florida days like this, on March 1st, I think about a frozen lake or two I know in Sweden, and the intoxicating sound your skates make as steel meets ice. Or I'd be up in Kiruna, north of the Arctic Circle watching the auroras with Mia Stålnacke, now -officially- in the National Geographic

On warm South Florida days like this, on March 1st, I think about a frozen lake or two I know in Sweden, and the intoxicating sound your skates make as steel meets ice.

Even now when I find myself sitting in chairs waiting for appointments, I'm actually moving my feet in front of me like I'm making my way effortlessly across the ice.
To me, floating across a quiet frozen lake, whether by yourself or with someone, and not saying a word as you listen to the sound of your steel on ice, is the best kind of meditation there is.

One of the best things abt being in at this time of year = fact that the wonderful/stylish , a 59,000 sq ft contemporary photography center, 1 of my faves, is open until 1 am on Fri/Sat nites 4 us !🌛




Another great thing abt being in 🇸🇪 now is that there are not only 1,001 beautiful places to see & capture via yr 📸, but amazing places that can make U happy in ways that U can't be in . Like this! 😊




I know that criss-crossing the ice I would not -of course- look as cool as one of my favorite people, Maia Shibutani, but you get the idea! #relax
