Evocative by Nature
@jameshormoth.bsky.social
I’m about evocative images found in nature or what catches my eye. My goal is to post photos that shift and change before your eyes often causing you to yelp with surprised recognition. I don’t augment my photos or sand my driftwood. I’m just odd that way.
Still wet from the beach. It was hard to photograph as the darkness eats the light. Lots to see.

It wouldn’t seem right

In a world without any prickles

This is the kind of monster that stalks the backroads I spend so much time on. You drive with your windows open and learn to turn around very quickly. The safest place, is right behind one.

I was walking on the beach in the dark, which is my want, and this piece got tangled in my pantleg twice while I was trying to step over a log. I took it as a sign and brought it home. Much of the detail will show up when it dries. Wet weight 80g.

I met up with a Giant Yellow Faced Mantis walking along the tideline. I didn’t alter this photo in any way minus some cropping. The closeup tells the story.

Not quite my usual, but I was hunting mushrooms in the woods in the dark because in the daytime it’s hard to distinguish Chantrelles from fallen leaves. I came across this huge burrow under the roots of a Douglas Fir. No sign of recent occupation. In a pinch I could easily sleep in there.

Spiderweb under an overhang where a creek undermined a wall of rocks and hard clay far enough that there are trees right above me that are still alive and living in dirt

Strange sunset. No filters or augmentation. It looked like the inlet was on fire.
