Hello, Bluesky! I've never been good at talking about myself, so here's what I think is my best picture. Taken in Grand Tetons National Park.
A patch of yellow flowers in a green field with trees and mountains in the background.

Does anyone else use lens balls/crystal balls in their photography? These are the only two I got, but they're singe of my most popular pics.

#photography #nature #crystalballphotography #keplercascades #yellowstonenationalpark
A crystal ball placed on a wooden surface captures an inverted image of a serene landscape. Inside the crystal ball, a tall tree stands in the middle of a sunlit meadow, surrounded by a forest with clear blue skies above. The background outside the ball is greyscaled and blurred, highlighting the sharp, vibrant scene within the sphere. Thin, out-of-focus blades of grass are visible to the right. A crystal ball rests on a rock at Kepler Cascades, capturing an inverted, vibrant reflection of the surrounding landscape. Inside the ball, lush green trees and the clear blue sky are vividly visible. Outside the ball, the background is in grayscale, displaying a forested area with tall pine trees and rocky terrain. The contrast highlights the colors within the lens ball against the monochrome surroundings.

From bubbling pools to misty skies, #Yellowstone is a #geothermal paradise.

Castle Geyser is erupting, releasing a large plume of steam and water into the air. The geyser's rocky cone structure is prominent in the foreground, while a backdrop of trees and rugged snow-covered mountain slopes completes the scene. The image depicts the Lone Star Geyser in the morning light. Steam rises from the geyser, creating a misty veil that catches the soft glow of the sun. Surrounding the geyser, tall pine trees stand silhouetted against the sky. The early morning light casts gentle shadows and highlights the textures of the landscape. A panoramic view from the top of Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park. The image showcases terraces of mineral deposits in shades of white, orange, and brown, creating a layered effect. In the background, a forested mountain range stretches under a clear blue sky, contrasting with the stark, colorful formations in the foreground. The scene captures the unique geothermal landscape and natural beauty of the area. Steam billows from Old Faithful geyser, blending into a dense fog under a muted sun. The landscape is silhouetted with scattered trees on the horizon, creating a mysterious and atmospheric scene.

If there's not already a word for it, I'm calling this a tileocracy, a government run by television personalities.

When I started to learn about #linguistics, I was fascinated by certain facts that made me stop caring too much about grammar. Still, enough to make sense, but when you start learning the importance of vernacular over academic languages, suddenly grammar loses some importance. Sorry #grammarians...

Something #bugs me about these pictures...

I don't actually know what the third one is. Could someone help me out? If it helps, it was found in Zion National Park.

A close-up of purple flowers with a bee perched on one, set against a blurred green background. Sunlight illuminates the scene.

I'm about to start my seventh winter season in Yellowstone, I constantly get asked how I can work somewhere so cold (at least once a season, it gets down to -40°). Well... #yellowstonenationalpark #winter #waterfall #fog
The sun rises behind a snowy landscape, casting shadows of trees and steam rising from the ground under a cloudy sky. A solitary pine tree stands near a shimmering waterway, enveloped in a dog as a bright sun looms in a foggy sky. A misty winter scene with tall, barren trees silhouetted against a bright sun, casting long shadows on the snow-covered ground. A cascading waterfall surrounded by snow-covered rocks and icy formations, with trees framing the scene.

So, I'm visiting Santa Fe, NM, and the first day, a major snow storm hits. When it was over, I needed to get pics! #snow #santafe #nature
Sunlit steam winding through snowy landscape with bare and autumn-hued trees under a partly cloudy sky. Person walking along a snow-covered path line with vibrant red autumn trees under a bright blue sky. Small stream flowing through a snow-covered forest with green foliage illuminated by sunlight. A serene winter landscape with a winding river surrounded by snow-covered rocks and vibrant autumn foliage.
