The first thing I noticed was how fast this swallow flew. When it landed, I noticed the white cheeks and green back. I was thrilled to realize that it was a Violet-green Swallow. They are stunning!

Incredibly proud of Cory Booker
@booker.senate.gov and in awe of his determination. He is conveying information that we need to hear. He is standing up for all Americans!

The Queen of the Boardwalk, a Northern Cardinal, giving an over-the-shoulder look. I call her "The Queen" because she stands up to the larger Red-winged Blackbirds who also like to hang out along the boardwalk.

I had completely forgot I’d taken this panorama!! Finally stitched it together 18 months later 😂 Múlafossur and Gásadalur on the right, and the sun setting next to Mykines on the left. Such a beautiful landscape!!

Oxygen is released into the atmosphere during photosynthesis. At night, some is consumed again by the tree. But the tree releases more oxygen than it needs itself. Deciduous forests release 15 to./year/ha of oxygen, coniferous forests up to 30 to./year/ha into the atmosphere.🌳🌲

Castaway - 2019

#LandscapePhotography #NaturePhotography #Photography
A small pine sapling clings on to a black/grey, jagged rock that seems to cut diagonally into a fast flowing, cold river. The river fills the entire frame, aside from the central dark rock with the try and a few other rocks in the distance. There is nothing else in the frame. The image is a vertical 4:5 ratio. There is some white water dotted around the frame in small patches. The water is a steely grey blue. The first warm light from sunrise is kissing the small pine sapling, giving it warmth. The image is titled Castaway because the sapling looks like it’s stranded on the rock.

Through a beautiful forest in North Florida, this river flows. A long exposure reveals its path to be an ess curve through the cypress trees. During springtime, everything under the canopy seems to be a shade of green.

Get out there.

I don't think anyone likes wildfire smoke, but on this morning, it filtered the morning sunlight beautifully.

Morning fam 👋🌄

Let's start the day with my first sunrise over Torres del Paine national park, 2 years ago. A blessed moment, alone in nature, with strong wind shaking the surface of the lake Pehoe, creating waves ! 🌊

#nature #photlgraphy #landscape #bluesky #patagonia
A breathtaking landscape photograph captures the dramatic beauty of Torres del Paine National Park in Chilean Patagonia. The scene features the iconic Cuernos del Paine (Horns of Paine), whose jagged, snow-capped peaks are bathed in the warm, golden hues of the setting or rising sun. The peaks, with their striking contrast of dark, rugged rock and lighter granite, rise majestically against a moody sky filled with thick, swirling clouds, hinting at the unpredictable Patagonian weather. Below the mountains, the turquoise waters of Lake Pehoé crash vigorously against dark, jagged rocks on the shoreline, creating a dynamic foreground of white, frothy waves in motion. The mist from the splashing water adds to the dramatic atmosphere, while the green slopes on the right balance the composition with their lush, earthy tones. The overall scene evokes a sense of wild, untouched natural beauty, highlighting the raw power and serenity of this remote region. The soft light, combined with the long exposure effect on the water, adds an ethereal quality to the image, making it both tranquil and powerful.
