This might be one of those photos that I think is cool, but no one is else does. This was the view out of our window during a snowstorm a couple nights ago. #blackandwhite #photography #snow #nature
A black and white photo taken outside our window during a snowstorm. A floodlight outside the door is illuminating the snowflakes. You can see the reflection of the recessed lights in the upper right hand corner.

A little bit of nighttime Christmas light blur photography fun. The first one is the original photo and the other three are different blurring techniques which really just amounts to my dumbass waving my arms around like a fool. 😂

Mother nature has her holiday decorations up. Her sublime taste is on full display with that beautiful tinsel and those vibrant red ornaments.

#TextureTuesday #Photography #NaturePhotography #Festive #BloomScrolling #SpanishMoss #HolidayVibes #Texas #EastTexas #BigThicket
A vertical, close-up nature shot looking up at tree branches against a bright, clear blue sky. A massive, thick curtain of silvery-grey Spanish moss dominates the right side of the frame, hanging down in tangled, stringy textures like natural tinsel. On the left, branches of a holly-like tree are visible, featuring small, vibrant green leaves and clusters of bright red berries that contrast sharply with the pale moss and blue sky. The lighting is sunny and crisp.

I didn’t hear this gem until after we moved to New Jersey from NorCal. It’s a staple here in the Northeast. My wife is Italian and we usually eat Italian food for Christmas instead of the usual American fare . I make sure this gets played at least once a year. 😆

Just started season 4 of The Witcher with Luke Hemsworth as Geralt. This must be what it was like for Beatles fans when Billy Shears replaced Paul McCartney back in 1966. 😜

Barry the Barryville camel is a local mascot of sorts. He’s pretty friendly as long as you don’t ask him what a camel is doing in New York. He’s been known to spit on people for asking that question. Consider yourself warned.
