    “Light Signal”

    While sailing the Mediterranean Sea in 1962, the American aircraft carrier USS Independence flashed the Amerigo Vespucci with the light signal asking: “Who are you?” The full-rigged ship answered: “Training ship Amerigo Vespucci, Italian Navy.” The Independence replied: “You are the most beautiful ship in the world.”

    I seriously went, “AAAAAAAAWWWWWEEEEEE” when I read the story.

    “Amontillado”

    Prompt: Bait

    In Edgar Allan Poe’s ‘The Cask of Amontillado”, our main character, Montresor, lured Fortunato (ironically means “the fortunate one”) with a promise of Amontillado, a rare vintage wine.

    Little did Fortunato knew, he ended up chained and buried alive behind a wall.

    “For the half of a century no mortal has disturbed them. In pace requiescat!”

    I didn’t adjust the colors or anything; just snap and upload the picture. Loving how it turns out — less grain and still retains the light.

  • I have been stepping away from social media (Threads) little by little recently, starting with registering on Mastodon, and I genuinely enjoy their non-algorithm timeline. You will only see stuff from folks that you follow. That’s it.

    I am still around on Threads, though, but I limit myself to 10 minutes only.

    Earlier, I tried checking Threads. Trying to see what’s up.

    My goodness.
