I don&#39;t think I mentioned it, but we were surrounded by butterflies during our hikes in Beceite a couple of weeks ago. Somehow I forgot to share this shot. Kind of looks like a surprised pikachu no? 😆 #photography

I loved how the clouds were gently touching these far away mountains. The scene had such beautiful symmetry, broken only by those white streaks. #photography

Short walk today in La Jota. Each year there is an event in the city where artists are invited to paint some murals in a city neighbourhood. These are from a couple years ago IIRC.

Early decav progress, wrote some custom draw_icn routines to speed up UFX font rendering. Now it&#39;s roughly the same speed to render text using UF2 fonts directly on the framebuffer or using the PlayDate native system font.
