@Barterre @ranjit @Alice@gram.social I just don’t enjoy 99% of nature photos so I'm certainly not going to add to the pile when it's just not my thing (jus as there are thousands of nature lovers who don’t want to look at my photos of dumb stuff like escalators and parking garages).
That being said, there are a handful of nature photographers on here who do an incredible job and even make my nature-averse self pause in awe at the beauty they capture.
Here are a few of my absolute favorite nature photographers:
@Laszlo
@Tsbasatoru
@pokarim
#FollowFriday even though it's not Friday, but I don’t care because more people need to see their photos on any day of the week.
So thrilled to realize that the German Astronomical Society ✨ @GermanAstroSoc ✨ has sneaked into the Fediverse last week!
Greetings 🥳
Let's make them welcome, shall we? Go ahead and start following them if you're interested in astronomy at all, and boost their introduction post above so everyone can know about this exciting new arrival.
I personally think this is huge, so let's make this work for them 🚀
I am also sure they will in turn be able to lure even more astronomers here, and we'd all love that, wouldn't we?

We are the German Astronomical Society (Astronomische Gesellschaft, AG)—one of Europe’s oldest astronomical associations, founded in 1863 and currently welcoming around 800 members.
Our mission includes organizing annual scientific meetings, fostering public outreach, supporting young astronomers, and encouraging astronomy education.

Für den heutigen #FollowFriday haben wir uns nach dem Vorbild von @neuSoM einmal der Accounts aller #Gerichte auf Mastodon angenommen.
Ihr wollt den Accounts folgen? Hier entlang zum #StarterPack: https://fedidevs.com/s/NjAx/
Oder einmal schauen, wo die hier vertretenen Gerichte ihren Sitz haben? Auf geht's zur Karte: https://www.easymapmaker.com/map/Gerichte_auf_Mastodon
Nicht nur für alle, die #NeuHier sind.
#GerichteSH#Justiz#TeamResopal#Whoswho#Amtsgericht#Landgericht#Oberlandesgericht#Arbeitsgericht
- @meldar16 - #ttrpg maker, local art fairs, needs funds after concussion (EDIT: also cat pics, of course)
- @deliaturner - cat pics, author, grandma perspective
- @PhilSalkie - cat pics, Manyunk, interesting anecdotes
- @mattia - cat pics, fiber arts, South Philly
I don't know if you notice a trend here, but I think it's clear Philly Mastodon loves taking photos of cats.

It's #FollowFriday!
One of my very first buddies on Mastodon was @the_etrain and I kind of feel like we grew up here together with our weird senses of humor (although the notion of either of us actually "growing up" is still up for debate).
He gets boosted a lot because he's hilarious, but that may make you think you're already following him, so please go to his profile to double-check because I'd hate for you to miss out on the funny things he says on a daily (and sometimes hourly) basis.
I swear I thought I was following him. The reason above is apparently why.
