Timeline cleanse: a year ago today (Olympic Peninsula, WA).

The aurora borealis lights up the sky with greens and pinks over the silhouette of a stand of Douglas fir.

I found a family of Welcome Swallows - two adults and two juveniles - just down to road from my home.

Photograph of a juvenile Welcome Swallow perched on a powerline. Its colouration is dull compared to an adult, with a ruddy throat and shoulders, mottled white breast, and dark head.

Photograph of four Welcome Swallows, two perched on a power line, two in flight (one of which is coming in to land). The perched birds are adults and the ones in flight are juveniles.

Photograph of two Welcome Swallows on a powerline. The left individual is juvenile, the right is mature with richer shades of orange, blue, black and white.

Here's a juvenile great horned owl from a couple of years ago.

An osprey had just swooped over the branching owls, and this owl got very excited and started spreading its wings.

Of the 25 or so Dahlias I planted this is my first flower. Fingers crossed for late frost…

Ontario wetland in October. In the foreground, dried grasses the colour sand bow in the breeze. Behind them a distant evergreen tree-line and the evening’s pink and blue sky are seen through the spiky silhouettes of crooked snags.

From my old iPhone 4 - July 2014. One of the wild West Coast beaches is aglow with light. The sun is diffused thru a cloud in the upper right-hand portion of the photo. The sand is near flawless, no footsteps - pristine and smooth. It reflects the glow from above. Horizontally dissecting the middle of the photo is a rocky outcrop that juts out into the Tasman. Fisherman are on the rocks working their craft. A lone seagull is on the sand watching the waves.

Tho storm clouds gather
She continues to bloom,
Providing nectar for ants and hummingbirds.

Happy Friday, friends

A bright red hibiscus flower in full bloom, its petals open wide and glowing against green leaves. The soft evening light hints at an approaching storm, but the flower remains vibrant and alive.

Calm lake at sunset with a clear sky. Pink clouds and contrails reflect on the water, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere.

Ruby Before the Sweetness

#Blackberry #UnripeFruit #NatureMacro #MacroPhotography #CloseUpNature #BotanicalBeauty #NaturePhotography #Photography #PhotoOfTheDay #WildDetails

A close-up photograph shows an unripe blackberry, each drupelet a rich, glossy red, forming a tight cluster at the tip of a slender stem. The berry’s surface shines softly under natural light, with fine textures visible on its smooth skin. The surrounding leaves are blurred in gentle green, drawing full focus to the vivid red fruit. This stage of ripening — before turning deep black — captures the berry’s brief, fiery moment between growth and sweetness. The watermark “©ahaktekin” appears at the lower left corner.
