#autumn #landscape #nature #photography
A beautiful tree-lined path, creating a natural tunnel effect. The ground is covered with a thick carpet of fallen, reddish-brown leaves, leading the eye into the distance. Far down the path, near the vanishing point, a few small figures are walking, which provides a sense of scale and adds a human element to the vast natural setting.

#autumn #landscape #nature #photography
A forest scene during late autumn, shot facing directly into a low sun creating a dramatic, starburst effect. The bottom third of the image is covered in a carpet of fallen autumn leaves, rich shades of rust, copper, and brown, scattered across patches of vibrant green grass. To the left and right, dense green shrubbery frames the view, leading the eye toward the center. In the middle ground, there is a pond. The water is still enough to act as a mirror, reflecting the silhouettes of the trees and the bright glow of the sun. Tall, skeletal trees surround the water. Most have lost their leaves, displaying intricate networks of bare branches against the sky. The sky is a gradient of deep blue at the top, fading to a pale, whitish-blue near the horizon where the sun is located.

#texturetuesday #thicktrunktuesday #photography
A close-up shot of a tree trunk with a geometric symbol that has been carved into the bark. The carving forms an hourglass shape, consisting of two triangles meeting at their points in the center. The carving exposes a lighter, brownish-orange layer of the wood beneath the darker, greyish outer bark.

Forest reflections

#monochromemonday #photography
The composition is centered around a narrow canal that stretches straight from the foreground into the distance, creating a strong sense of depth. The waterway is flanked on both sides by tall, slender trees, creating a rhythmic pattern of dark lines against the background. The dark tree trunks are mirrored in the water, but the ripples distort the reflection, turning the sharp lines of the trees into painterly strokes.

#urban #photography
A crudely drawn smiley face spray-painted onto a tiled wall. Two roughly circular black blotches serve as eyes. Both have significant runs of paint dripping vertically from them, creating the visual impression that the face is "crying" black tears. A wide, U-shaped curve forms the smile. Gravity has pulled the excess paint downward from the main lines of the smile, creating a series of long, uneven vertical lines that extend across the tiles below.

#autumn #landscape #nature #photography
A serene autumn pathway just before sunset creating a peaceful and crisp atmosphere. Dominating the center and right side of the frame is a row of tall, stately trees, with their intricate network of bare branches reaching up into the blue sky, casting long shadows across the path. A dirt and gravel trail acts as a strong leading line, drawing the viewer's eye into the distance where the trees converge. The sun is positioned low on the left horizon, partially obscured by the distant tree line. This backlighting creates a glowing, starburst effect and illuminates the scene with warm, golden hues.

#silentsunday #nature #photography
An artistic, vertical photograph capturing the reflection of a forest on the surface of a body of water. The perspective creates an abstract, painterly effect rather than a literal representation of the trees. The water is not perfectly still. It is filled with thousands of tiny, intricate ripples and undulations. The result resembles the brushwork of an Impressionist painting, textured glass, or a mosaic, where the details are fragmented but the overall form remains recognizable. To confuse the unimaginative, this photo has been rotated 180 degrees.

#52wochenfotochallenge #photography
A detached fabric label resting on a dark, reflective surface. The square-ish white synthetic fabric tag is commonly used for anti theft labels. The label is surrounded by a chaotic nest of loose, frayed threads. These fibers are translucent, shiny, and silver-white, suggesting the tag was ripped or cut hastily from a textile item.

#autumn #landscape #nature #photography
A vivid, abstract photograph of autumn trees reflected on the surface of rippled water. Dark, thick bands (the trees) run diagonally from the top to the bottom, creating a rhythmic pattern that breaks up the brighter areas. Patches of white and silver shimmer throughout the image, likely reflecting the sky or bright sunlight filtering through the canopy. The dominant colors are rich tones of gold, amber, rust, and ochre. There is a striking contrast between the bright foliage and the deep, inky blacks of the tree trunks and shadows. The movement of the water has distorted the reflection, turning straight lines into jagged, squiggly waves. This gives the image the appearance of an Impressionist oil painting.

Smurfs Log: Ti-Ta-Tovenaar en het Grobbekuiken

* Part of the "Housecleaning (Things Left in My Mom's House)" series

#history #caregiving #photography

Tiny spider

#insektensamstag #nature #photography
A low-angle shot of a solitary plant stem silhouetted against a bright, overcast sky. At the top, the stem branches out into a distinct umbel shape. Multiple smaller stems radiate from a central point. At the tip of each ray, there are smaller clusters of dried seed pods. Very fine, almost invisible threads of spider silk can be seen connecting some of the radiating stems, catching the light slightly. A tiny spider sits at the top of one of the seed pods.

Seed Pods

#autumn #nature #photography
A moody, photograph capturing a cluster of dried, skeletal seed pods clinging to a decaying stem. The pods display a range of varying earth tones, from pale tan and parchment colors to deep, burnt umber and nearly black shades near the bottom. The background is a creamy, soft bokeh of muted greens and brownish-pinks.

Stained glass

#fensterfreitag #windowfriday #photography
A single, tall, arched window set against a pitch-black background. The scene is illuminated solely by the light emanating from within the window, creating a dramatic effect where the subject emerges from deep shadow. The colors are muted and desaturated, dominated by pale greens, translucent whites, and hints of amber, giving it a ghostly or ethereal appearance.

#throwbackthursday #minimalism #photography
A minimalist, line-art selfie, made in Photoshop somewhere between 2010 and 2015. The style is highly abstract and minimalist, using only a few simple black lines on a white background to suggest the facial features and hair. The hair is represented by a cluster of short, curved, somewhat jagged lines on the top of the head. Curved lines suggest the eyebrows or the crease of the forehead.The eyes give the impression of a focused gaze. There is a single, short, curved line that suggests the bottom and side of the nose. A long, gentle curve suggests the contour of the jaw and chin. A simple, upward-curving horizontal line forms a smile.

Devilish Seedpod

#autumn #nature #photography
A photo focusing on a seedpod (or fruit?) of a plant, set against a vibrant autumnal background. The central focus is a singular, bulbous pod. The most striking feature is the pair of long, slender, upward-curving protrusions at the top of the fruit. These give the object a whimsical, almost "alien" or insect-like appearance, resembling antennae or horns.

Coot

#wavywednesday #photography
A coot floating on the surface of a body of water. The small, dark silhouette of the bird is positioned near the center of the frame. The bird is surrounded by prominent, concentric circular ripples spreading outwards, indicating it has just dipped its head, creating a strong focal point. The entire surface of the water is covered in wave patterns. Several thin, vertical dark sticks sparsely jut out of the water around the bird, adding linear elements to the composition.

Vibrant colors

#autumn #leafscrolling #nature #photography
A small stem of leaves displaying vibrant autumnal colors against a soft, dark green background. The colors range from brilliant magenta and deep crimson red at the tips and upper portions to orange and golden yellow toward the bottom-left leaves. The background is dark, out-of-focus green foliage, with hints of yellow and other muted tones, which provides excellent contrast, making the brightly colored leaves the clear focal point.

MaDiWoDo

#autumn #landscape #nature #photography

* A long time ago, some British girls who were visiting were wondering about the weekly train schedule. MaDiWoDo (e.g. working week) will always be remembered...
A sun-drenched forest scene during the autumn season. It has vibrant, warm colors, dominated by golden yellows, rich oranges, and bright greens and strong backlighting from the sun shining through the trees creates a brilliant glow. The ground is heavily covered in a thick layer of fallen leaves in shades of brown, red, and orange, signifying the height of autumn. There are patches of vibrant green undergrowth interspersed with the fallen leaves. The trees in the background display a magnificent blend of changing colors. Three prominent tree trunks anchor the foreground, with the central one being thick and rough, contrasting with the lighter, smoother trunks to its left and right. These trunks frame the brighter, sunlit part of the forest beyond, drawing the viewer's eye into the depth of the woods.

Dark Days

#landscape #monochrome #photography
A high-contrast black and white photograph of a bleak heath landscape, under a clouded sky. Several scattered trees are visible. Two prominent, lighter-toned birch trees frame the scene, one on the left and another on the right, with bare or very sparse branches silhouetted against the sky. A small, obscured moon is partially visible through a break or thinner part of the clouds, creating a point of brightness adding to the dramatic atmosphere.
