Arctic Tenacity | 2023

A photo that I retook on several occasions during the trip in Senja back in 2023 to best capture the experience of being there in the field - freezing and observing these bare trees battling the snowstorm.

The deluge has begun in Durango. I got out during a brief break in the rain and the clouds were hugging the mountains that surround town.

Low clouds drift through a rugged, tree-covered mountainside, partially veiling ridgelines and rocky outcrops; muted autumn greens and browns show beneath the mist on an overcast day.

It still seems erroneous since you are not identifying the children and the article itself still says Ukranian.

Another look at that beautiful waterfall I photographed a couple of weeks ago.

#Photography #Landscape #Nature #Outdoors #Colorado #Waterfall

Tall waterfall pouring from layered red and brown rock into a small turquoise pool, with clear water flowing over multicolored stones in the foreground; moss, evergreen trees, and patches of yellow-green foliage cling to the canyon walls.

Rocky, jagged ridge covered with dense evergreen forest, dotted with patches of yellowing deciduous trees, in bright afternoon light; sharp stone outcrops and cliffs break through the tree canopy, with mixed shadows emphasizing the rugged mountainside.

Light and shadow and autumn aspen trees. I can't get enough of this combination.

It's a weird year. Some trees are still green and some are way past peak. I saw a lot of trees with green and dark orange on the same tree. It's usually a lot more uniform, especially within a single stand, but it has been all over the place this year.

Jason Coward @drumshaman.bsky.social · 4d

Thank you so much, Bob! 😊

Gold Crown (Oct 2025)

The wind was gusty as we drove to Echo Basin on Saturday. And though the colors were oddly out of sync, with some trees still green and others way past peak, it was still a beautiful experience.
