Philosophy | Nature Photography. I occasionally post pictures I take on my phone and quotes from books I’m reading.
Johnson’s own state is one of the highest recipients.

MacArthur was influential on me in my young adult years. I thought his dogmatic style was model behavior. Later on, I learned he engaged in nepotism, lied about events in his life, and defended sex offenders and abusers. I’m glad I moved away from such false prophets. May his victims find peace.

Finally wrapped up the full story in Horizon: Forbidden West. I was so impressed with how well this relationship developed. Tenderly written and superbly acted. A fitting conclusion for the character’s emotional arc and a mature realization of the story’s themes.

A thick fog is settling in during the last full moon of the year.

Back in late spring, I played with getting shots of dew on grass. I think this turned out pretty well without changing the camera settings.

One of my favorite mornings from this year. This was late January, the fog was sitting just above the trees, and everything spoke in whispers.

It’s a pretty bleak image to risk death queueing up for a selfie. Quite the difference from these two, who summited the mountain in the spirit of human achievement and exploration.

In the spirit of the swelling nature photography community on this site, here’s my introductory, if meager, contribution.

I took this picture at my old place. It reminds me of peaceful autumns.

Closing out the year with some darker material. Fitting for winter.
