Never ending love for this mountain range.

#mountainscape #mountains #landscape #clouds

Photo shows a mountain range at dusk. There is a light dusting of snow on the mountains. The clouds above the mountains are both beautiful and ominous.

On my walk, November 2, 2025.

The photo shows a view of overlapping mountain ranges. The furthest range has fresh snow on it. There is a small forested area at the front of the photo. There is light and shadow based upon the position of the sun.

The iconic curve.

The landscape photo shows the view of a tight curve in a highway surrounded by forest turning colours in autumn. In the background is a lake and large mountain ridge.

Summer nights, warm winds…

A mountain is in the photograph. In the sky are grey, billowing clouds. At the bottom of the clouds is bright pink light from the sun going down. The bright pink clouds are formed in such a way that they look like pink rain is falling.

Some funky looking clouds are the main part of the photo. The clouds are set in a blue sky with mountain ranges and trees at the base of the photograph.

Up close in the photo is yellow sea grass or sea weed. In the distance are a few boats and buoys. Finally, in the misty foreground are some trees.

A little sunflower has started to open. The summer sunlight highlights the yellow leaves on the sunflower.

One more photo for #caturday and #blueskyartshow . This is my Nova. He doesn’t like his #green vegetables! lol

A grey and white cat sits on an outdoor compost made of bricks. In front of him lay a handful of freshly picked snow peas. The cat frowns as if to state, “I’m not eating those!”.

I couldn’t believe my eyes! On Monday, I was lucky enough to see the largest herd/family of mountain sheep I have ever seen here! About 40 sheep including between 6 and 8 adult males. Wish I could have captured them all!
