~In the snowdrop woods~🌼🌼🍃

There is nothing more promising for better days then a beautiful white carpet of delicate snowdrops emerging in dark and rainy late winter days. 🌞

Isn't it always an excitement to watch wild elephants in their natural habitats - with their social interactions, emotional intelligence and lasting memory?! Two of the many memorable photos I took at Chobe Nature Reserve, Botswana. 🐘🐘🙂

~Light is a painter~💛🖌️

Silhouettes of flying towards the horizon cormorants immersed into the golden light of the sunset and merged with the motion of the waves at Jurassic Coast, UK. ☀️🌊🧡

It was an unforgettable experience to encounter lionesses at Chobe National Park, while they were taking a rest in the shade. One of them decided to approach a vehicle so close that all photographers stayed silent for a moment. 🦁🦁

~Spring messengers~🌼🌼🔅

There is magic in the woods when the the tiny snowdrops emerge on the forest floor.

There are more then 2500 varieties of snowdrops, all grouped in 20 species of genus Galanthus.

~Little drop, a fragile snowdrop~🌼🌞
Beginning of February! Frosted winter woods and gardens are covered with little white drops, emerging in the forest floor to bare scent and pure beauty for the new spring!
Happy new month #Bluesky!

Reflecting upon the Stars

A dead calm evening at Moke Lake, Queenstown.
I was lucky enough to catch a faint aurora in the background too!

Along the Lightline - Tukituki Valley, Hawke's Bay, New Zealand.

A line of trees emerges through drifting fog on a sloped hillside, touched by the first warm light of day. Horses add a touch of scale.

Last light of the day above the horizon at Jurassic Coast.

I love ICM coastal photography - it is very transformative and creates a sense of calm.

I thought these photos correspond well with the theme for today's #BirdOfTheDay, #solitude, suggested by by @alan678.bsky.social .

Recent Winter Art in JAPAN

Every winter, I often return to the same places. Yet no matter how many times I visit, my mind resets, and I see the scene with fresh eyes each time. I capture something new and bring it home. Even now, this winter treasure hunt has me running through nature like a child.

Such beautiful experience to witness the rising Wolf Supermoon and starling murmuration at Ham Wall Nature Reserve, UK.
The first Supermoon of the Year was spectacular! 🌑💙

Good night everyone!
