Excuse me. It looks like I interrupted a meeting of the Kong Appreciation Society. Carry on...

Two dogs lying on a sunny grassy lawn. The dog on the left is a white adult with brown patches, wearing a chain collar. The dog on the right is a smaller, brown puppy. They are both focused on a black rubber toy shaped like a snowman.

Oh. Hey. Don't mind me.

While I was having lunch outside, this neighborhood cat fell from the roof of my house, shook itself off, and started climbing back up again.

When anglerfish evolve to hunt on land...

Nice try.

A close-up of a small apple hanging from a thin, bent branch — reminiscent of the "fishing rod" of an anglerfish. The background features a variety of green plants and shrubs, creating a lush and vibrant setting.

11 years ago I used to commute by this oil depot every day, which may explain the antenna growing out of my head.

I love that the Google Maps photo for this location is also a couple of bikes.

Designer garbage. We don't have curbside pickup. Instead there's a community dumpster where I took a bag of dog droppings, and saw how upscale my neighborhood actually is.

A close-up of the ground near a community dumpster, showing a discarded gold-colored Yves Saint Laurent designer logo lying in the dirt. Surrounding the object are scattered trash, including plastic bags and cardboard, and other debris.

The new puppy is fully accepted! I had reasons to orchestrate a slow and managed introduction. Either my caution was completely unnecessary, or I did a fantastic job.

Three dogs interacting on a lush green lawn. A black-and-white dog and a brown puppy stand close together, while a larger black dog with a wagging tail appears to be sniffing or nuzzling the puppy. The scene conveys a sense of harmony and acceptance among the dogs.

I thought I was handling the thunderstorm with style and nonchalance. Then I saw this person.

A person walking barefoot down a flooded, street during heavy rain, holding a vibrant red umbrella. The street is lined with houses and greenery, and the water flows down the middle of the path

Evidence of Second-Wave Feminism in an otherwise uninteresting part of my neighborhood.

A dirt path in an urban neighborhood, where a discarded bra lies on the ground near a patch of green grass and a low brick wall. The scene is otherwise unremarkable, with scattered debris.

Cowdog — a dog in my neighborhood that I haven't seen before. Very friendly.

The prospect of photos like this is what sells the ball. And I fell for it. And I'm not sorry.

A close-up of a brown dog holding a bright orange rubber toy with exaggerated teeth in its mouth. The toy is designed to look like a set of giant, cartoonish human teeth, and the dog appears to be smiling while gripping it.

A public flogging of a barrel? No, they're threshing rice from the seed heads by the side of the road.

#Africa #Madagascar #Antananarivo #Malagasy #Rice #Photography #OriginalPhoto #HalfHeartedFanatic

Three people working in a lush, green field beside a road in Antananarivo, Madagascar.

This sight filled me with hope. Does anyone else feel this way?

The moment of truth. After weeks of carefully orchestrated introductions and integration. No muzzle. Can the puppy touch the big dog's toy and survive? No reaction. Just a forbearing look.

One of my New Years resolutions (the easiest one) is to take more walks in my neighborhood and to occasionally get lost on purpose.

A vibrant landscape of terraced rice paddies in Antananarivo, Madagascar, surrounded by lush greenery and rolling hills. In the background, houses are scattered across the hillside, blending into the natural scenery under a cloudy sky.

If you want to shoot hoops, you'll find a way. Basketball isn't hugely popular in Madagascar, and this yard had almost no real estate for it, and still...

A lush, green residential area in Antananarivo, Madagascar, featuring terraced gardens and dense vegetation. In the foreground, a makeshift basketball hoop is attached to a wooden pole, standing in a small dirt courtyard. Houses are visible on the hillside in the background.

This neighborhood convenience store says they have fish (MISY TRONDRO). I believe them.

A small neighborhood convenience store with a rusty metal door marked 'MISY TRONDRO' (meaning 'fish available'). Two cats are present: one sitting inside the shop behind the metal bars, and the other sitting on the ground outside near the entrance. The shop displays bags of snacks and goods hanging inside.

My neighborhood tailor and supernatural shop (tarot, astrology, palm reading, etc. with a dash of Rasta) is in this narrow wedge of a workspace.

A narrow, rustic brick building along a quiet street in Antananarivo, Madagascar. The building features barred windows with posters advertising services such as tailoring, tarot reading, astrology, and palm reading. A man carrying a large sack walks past the building, and lush greenery surrounds the area.
