Photowalking

I hate it when people have their nose holes sticking out of their mask. I don't think 'already dead' or 'doesn't breathe anymore' is a good enough excuse!
I did two photo-walks recently. Not terribly productive, but am hopeful for the possible rain this weekend and maybe getting some good rainy pics.
One night when I was fiddling with camera menus, I started hearing a live jazz cover of Someone To Watch Over Me get louder and louder. I don't know if this is a thing other places, but here bicyclists having incredibly hi-def sound systems on their bikes is a big thing. These were great speakers. The combo of hi-def sound, being a live recording, and a sad, yearning voice drawing nearer was really creepy. It's not what I want when standing in the complete darkness trying to get a shot as low-ISO as I can manage.
I need to do longer walks so I can find more things to shoot. We've been really lucky on air quality here, but it can also tank fast, which is one reason I've been sticking closer to home on my walks.
But the cat-like-shape detectors in my brain are working well. Spotted this fuzzy in the shadows from across the street:
