West Mitten Golden Hour

The Mittens are Monument Valley’s most iconic landmarks—massive sandstone buttes shaped like resting hands on the desert floor. A timeless symbol of the Southwest’s wide-open beauty.

A scene of vast proportions in Canada's Yukon, the foothills of the Ogilvie mountains, covered in colorful autumn tundra, rejoice in beautiful dappled light. For scale, note the trees on the foreground ridge.

Mitchell Butte stands quietly in Monument Valley, a massive red sandstone landmark shaped by time and wind. At sunrise and sunset, shifting light brings out rich reds and purples—an iconic, less-crowded view of the valley’s timeless beauty.

I almost drove past the small area where you can take this photo. The Totem Pole and Ye Bei Chei off in the distance. Nice to have the zoom handy for this one.

In case anyone is curious to see how the original photo looked (the landscape version of it)- you can find it here: bsky.app/profile/pixe...
Burano is a work of art- especially right after the rain with puddles reflecting the candy-colored homes. Legend has it that the fishermen painted their homes boldly so they were easy to find through fog and sea mist. #reflections #photos #photography #colorpop #fishermen #buildings #italy #burano

Unlike “followers” (for example, bison calves), deer fawns are “hiders,” staying put until strong enough to run. Mothers may leave them for up to 12 hours while foraging, returning periodically to nurse. #BlueskyArtShow #Small #Deer #GrandCanyon #Fawn #Hider #Photos #AnimalPhotography #Photography

There really isn’t a bad angle when taking a photo of Hallgrimskirkja. This was shot using a wideangle lens (16mm).

The sun rises late in wintertime Minnesota. It’s usually still dark as I get out of bed but if conditions are right, I’ll be treated to a gorgeous sunrise. A warm glow builds slowly in the sky casting color on the snow to create a magical scene.

Another shot of Zion, this time from near the entrance of the park. Those wispy low-lying clouds were so cool.

Overlooking the snowy Loire Valley, Château d’Amboise is a regal reminder of 🇫🇷’s storied past, made even more enchanting by winter’s touch.
Château d’Amboise is the final resting place of Leonardo da Vinci 🇮🇹 who lived nearby in Clos Lucé during his final years.
