Blue wet mountain Monday

Bergsbotn in Senja, Norway

#BlueSkyMonday #MountainMonday #JanuArty2026 #JanuArty #wet #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited #photography
An icy fjord with snow-covered mountains behind a rounded inlet. The mountains are partially reflected in the water. The sky is blue with some low-lying clouds behind the mountains. There are trees and a road in the foreground.

❝ January was a two-faced month, jingling with jester's bells, crisp with crust, pure as any beginning, ominous as an old man, mysteriously familiar and yet unfamiliar, like a word that's on the tip of the tongue but slips away at the last moment. ❞ 📚 Patricia Highsmith. The Price of Salt 🔗
The photograph depicts a winter landscape with a snow-covered shore and trees covered with frost. Nature: The trees in the background are adorned with thick white frost, creating the impression of a deep snow cover. Water: The river of water in the foreground is not yet completely frozen, but the frost has already begun, and part of the surface is covered with ice and snow. A strip of open water is visible, reflecting the frosted trees and blue sky. Atmosphere: A clear blue sky and bright sunlight enhance the beauty of a frosty day.

Well, it's Thursday which for me mostly means bees on yellow things 🐝😁

A close-up of a honey bee in the middle of a bright yellow flower which fills the frame. A small patch of blurry yellow greenish background can be seen above the flower.

Wenn es nur einmal so ganz still wäre. Wenn das Zufällige und Ungefähre verstummte...
Dann könnte ich in einem tausendfachen Gedanken bis an deinen Rand dich denken und dich besitzen (nur ein Lächeln lang).

Caught in a heavy downpour while the sun is still splitting the stones. 🌦️ The way the backlight caught the falling rain at Johnstown Castle created this incredible, glittering atmosphere. Absolutely worth getting soaked for! #photography #Wexford #sunshower #IrishWeather #nature

Low tide at Ocean Beach in San Diego, California. 850nm infrared

#sandiego #sdca #oceanbeach #beach #surfing #sunset #obpier #landscapes_lovers #photography #infraredphotography #850nm
A long concrete pier extends diagonally from the left foreground toward the distant horizon over the ocean. Dark support columns repeat beneath the deck, with reflections visible in wet sand at low tide. Heavy layered clouds fill the sky, creating strong contrast above the calm water. A small shorebird stands near the waterline on the right side of the frame.
