Good Evening and Goodnight
Bluesky Fam! Here is my latest picture of the moon that I Captured a week ago.Snapped on a Canon EOS R50

The picture shows a full moon against a black night sky. The moon's surface is clearly visible, displaying various craters and maria (dark, flat regions) that create a detailed, textured appearance. The lighting is bright, highlighting the moon's features prominently.

#GutenMorgen.
Ich habe meine Zunge an heißem Kaffee verbrannt. Ist aber nur eine Schlürfwunde. Heilt wieder. 😉 Einen guten und entspannten Start in den Tag wünsche ich euch. ☕️🍀

Good morning. The #BirdOfTheDay theme is #birdinabush ( any bird in a bush), and the alternative is #reflection ( a reflection in water or glass of any bird) I’m going with a bird in a bush. A little Wren. Good luck!! #birds #photography #EastCoastKin

A small brown wren perches among green and reddish leaves, its fine barred plumage and pale eyebrow stripe clearly visible. The bird is facing slightly to the left against a softly blurred green background with hints of pink, creating a calm and natural garden scene.

The frame my wife said looked most like a painting from tonight's blue hour color chase in the clouds over the Hualapai Valley. Cotton candy clouds catching color. IYKYK.

The picture shows a landscape at sunset. In the foreground, the dark branches of a pine tree can be seen, framing the image. In the middle, there is a calm body of water reflecting the warm colors of the sky. A small settlement lies on the shore. In the background, several layers of mountains rise, depicted as dark silhouettes against the sky. The sky is rendered in soft shades of orange, yellow, and gray, with some clouds.

you can see the hood of a car looking down the highway with trees on the sides of the road. There is fog and the sun trying to break through on the right.

Water with trees and a few buildings on the other side. It is foggy and blurred because it was taken from a fast moving car.

In the foreground, the green waters of the lake. In the background, a blue sky, mountains with few trees, and the typical vegetation of these places above 2000 meters above sea level.
