A photo of a crocodile head from very close-by. The eye is clearly visible. Half submerged in water and some vegetation over it.

An olive in autumn sunshine 🍸🫒🕊️🌳

#ThickTrunkTuesday #Puglia
An olive tree, trunk split into two major … sub-trunks? … at hip height. Two stacks of rectangular stones underneath the right branch. Shade in front of the viewer, sunshine behind the tree.

Even the darkest tree cannot suppress this glow. The Great Synagogue in Budapest, Hungary, the largest synagogue in Europe and the second largest in the world

The building visible through a bare, dark tree is the Great Synagogue in Budapest, Hungary. It is the largest synagogue in Europe and the second largest in the world. The synagogue was built between 1854 and 1859 in Moorish style according to the plans of architect Ludwig Förster. The façade consists of red and light-coloured bricks with oriental motifs and two towers with Byzantine domes. Inside, the synagogue can accommodate almost 3,500 worshippers.

Photo of a rural landscape. Pastures of golden grass, hardwood trees in the distance that were starting to change colors, a large oak tree in the lower center with red orange leaves, and a smaller pecan tree with lighter orange leaves. The sky is covered in high clouds of gray and white.

I didn’t even notice the blue heron camouflaged under a bush until I started editing later on. Trail to Glass Beach in the fog.

This is the only Least Bittern I have photographed in my life. This is the smallest member of the heron family, and its conservation status is of Least Concern. Bosque del Apache, New Mexico. For the #least theme of #BirdOfTheDay #EastCoastKin #birds

off the rails
Standing at the base of a train trestle looking east to the historic Union Street bridge in Salem, Oregon that has been renovated to carry bicycles and pedestrians across the Willamette River to and from West Salem. The bridge has a central section that used to be raised and lowered to accommodate taller river traffic.

Standing in Newport Tennessee in October 2025, looking at English mountain. The leaves changing from green with a hint of red and orange. You can see a pasture with a fence.

That perches in the soul
And sings the tune

And never stops - at all

Both images capture stunning sunset scenes over a calm body of water, emphasizing vivid color and reflection. First image: The sky is filled with dramatic, layered clouds streaked in brilliant hues of gold, orange, and soft purple. The warm light from the sunset reflects beautifully off the still water below, creating a glowing mirror effect. The shoreline is visible in the foreground with a few scattered rocks and wet sand catching the light. The overall feel is peaceful and radiant, with the colors giving a sense of warmth and serenity. Second image: Taken a little later in the evening, this photo shows a deeper, more intense palette — fiery oranges and reds transition into rich purples and blues. The horizon glows with the last light of sunset, while the water reflects the colors like molten glass. A bare tree on the right adds a striking silhouette, balancing the composition and adding depth. The mood here is more dramatic and contemplative, suggesting the end of the day moving into twilight. Together, these images capture the progression of a vivid sunset, highlighting nature’s beauty and the changing light over time.

10 Nov 1968 I am now 43. It's nine in the morning. The sky is grey but it has a look of turning into sunshine later on. Yesterday was wholly delightful. #RichardBurton100 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
