Daily Photo – Cowering at the Wall of Ages

Here’s another one of the images from my 1000 Stories from 1000 Places NFT drop. It sold out in minutes, but they are now available to trade on OpenSea and X2Y2, etc so be sure to check them out.

On the main continent of Antarctica are countless glaciers that spill out across the landscape. This was located in the Dry Valleys, where a helicopter took me out to camp for about a week.

There was absolutely no one around, and there was a strange loneliness standing near something so daunting and timeless. I would walk along the edge for miles, occasionally stepping over ice boulders or across icy streams to touch its surface.

(I use the term soccer in reference to the game, as the league itself called the North American Soccer League.) Professionally speaking, I was still a…

NYC nurse accused of assault exonerated by Ring camera

NYPD officers refused to look at Ring camera surveillance footage that would have exonerated a nurse busted for domestic violence charges, according to a new federal lawsuit. Tricia Lara says she’s the one who got arrested when her cousin forced her way into her Brooklyn apartment on June 30 — even though a camera set up in her living room showed her cousin was the aggressor. The officers’ unwillingness to watch the video — despite a state law requiring cops to investigate who the “primary physical aggressor” in a domestic violence case is — put Lara through the criminal justice…
