Grey fox on the rocks

This fox ran in front of my car on a county road in SW Colorado. I took these photos from the road.

#greyfox #photosky #fox #colorado #photography #wildlife
1 of 2 A Grey fox in SW Colorado stopped to watch me. It is on lichen covered boulders. The grey and tan rocks are surrounded with sagebrush. The fox blends in well with it's surroundings. A juniper tree is in the background. 2/2 The same grey fox sits to watch me more. The fox blends in well with it's surroundings. It's tail almost looks like a branch resting on the rock behind them.

Rise Up, Lily!
#art #photography #blackandwhitephotography #lilypad #botanical #water #waterlily
Black and white. The water is still giving the lily pad cluster the illusion of floating in nothing. One light colored white flower is rising up near the front of the cluster and it's reflection looks like a shadow.

Is there anything else I should include in my alt text on my photos to make sure that it’s descriptive enough?

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

Oregon Coast last summer was a whole vibe.

#ocean #oregoncoast #mood #photography #colorphotography #beach #goldenhour
The photo was taken at the beach on the Oregon coast. It's golden hour so the light of the setting sun gives the whole pic a golden hue. The evening was cool and a fog is hanging over the beach and ocean. The beach is in the foreground to the right with a few people walking on the beach with the ocean water on the left. The background has rocky formations the Oregon coast is known for.

Aspen Eye

Photo is taken near the trunk of a tall aspen looking up in Colorado. It is autumn and the leaves are bright gold contrasting the bluebird sky. The tree trunk has a knot that looks like an eye.

Sunflower Snow. I love the colors of this photo. #sunflower #colorphotography #navy #gold #snow #winter
The photo focuses on the dead remains of a roadside sunflower in winter. The stem is coming from the bottom right of the photo. The sun is shining on the yellowed head with a small amount of snow on top. A storm approaches and the unfocused background is dark blue in the sky and a golden yellow in the dead grassy field.

Gateway to Glory. Taken in SW Colorado. #blackandwhitephotos #photo #art #Colorado
Black and White photo of an old wooden fence post with old twisted wires on it with a closed metal gate in the foreground. The gate opens to a field with grass and a few sage bushes with the snowy La Plata mountains in the back. A few clouds are above the mountains.
