Hello Fullmoon! 🌕

This is a digital image I created using one of my cyanotypes. Cyanotypes are one of the oldest photographic printing processes. I really enjoy experimenting with them.

#February 4, 1995
#OTD The North County Times ran a little article about #Weeds titled,
"What do #Yarrow, #Chicory, #Horsetail, #ShepherdsPurse, and #GroundIvy have in common?"

The answer is that they are all considered weeds.

In the post, the author of "Just Weeds," Pamela Jones, countered:

"I would like to see the word weed abolished altogether for being one of the most intolerant, negative words in the English language."
