Back home after another fantastic photography trip to #Iceland (my 34th!).

Stopped along the south coast yesterday on my way back - these river estuaries are just incredible.

Re-posting for #ShareMondays2025 because I have way too many photos to review still and I like this one :)
Boom!

A good deal of my time spent on the beach at Jökulsárlón is trying to capture waves hitting icebergs, without the iceberg moving (and being blurred). Occasionally it all comes together :)

Oh, I love this. A new species of sea anemone was discovered recently that parks itself on top of a hermit crab shell like a hat. It seems to feed partly off the crab's faeces, but it also excretes a hard shell that extends the crab's home. In return, it's carried around the seafloor like a king.

If you're over 35 now, you're living like the most wealthy people in 1950.

If these were my shoes, I wouldn't have taken a picture of them.

Shadows has been a good week! I'm sad to see it go.

The title for this article caused a burst of out-loud laughter.

I recently attended a talk by #author #GaryNoy where he compared #Tahoe visitor numbers to #Yoesemite and #Disneyland (in Anaheim). It got me questioning how we missed out on making this a #NationalPark

A hole in the ground that lots of people (and a few mules) went down.

Some of my favorite rocks in all of #California. #DonnerSummit with #DonnerLake and the #trainTunnels. It's a place where I've spent a lot of time, mental and emotional energy and most recently helped out at the #DonnerPartyHike event.

Beautiful + harsh.

A rock we picked up on a beach on the Île d’Oléron. The little French isle was littered with them. I think they are called Witch or Hag Stones and looking through the holes can reveal the true form of witches.
Useful tonight.

Here my capture for #BirdOfTheDay theme of #funny

This goofy puffin lives on the Island of Mykines, population 13 in the #FaroeIslands

Did you know some of these birds can live to be 30 years old?

On a windy shore, near the Arctic Circle, we paused to look at the sheep, tucked in the rocks, under the table.

It wasn't until looking at the pictures later that we noticed the sea creature, hiding in plain view, made of shadow and light.

#DonnerSummit zoomed out to show the terrain the wagons were crossing.

Fun but faint!

These slight marks in solid granite around #DonnerSummit were made by wagon wheels when that was a major mode of tranaport out to #California in the rush for gold.
