Shoot 2025-12-31-194807

For this last gallery of 2025, I have just a few photos from recent trips to the lake and to the coast. The most unexpected bird was a lone Dunlin, but that's hardly a rare bird this time of year on the coast. See you next year!

The above hashes-<date>.txt file contains SHA-256 hashes of all the photos from this shoot. The hashes-<date>.txt.sig is a signature of that hashes file, created with my PGP key. The signature file itself was written to both the Bitcoin Cash and Algorand blockchains, in the OP RETURN and Note fields respectively, using the transactions below. In short, this proves that these photos and the signature both existed at the time the transactions were written to the Bitcoin Cash and Algorand blockchains. This blog post has more details.
