‘Low-anchored cloud,
Newfoundland air,
Fountain head and source of rivers,
Dew-cloth, dream drapery,
And napkin spread by fays’

Henry David Thoreau

Missed blue sky art show yesterday, but #sky lover here!

Early morning London

#imageandverse
#stunday
#eastcoastkin
A park in mist and pink and golden dawn with grey clouds over grass and trees Full poem Low-anchored cloud, Newfoundland air, Fountain head and source of rivers, Dew-cloth, dream drapery, And napkin spread by fays; Drifting meadow of the air, Where bloom the dasied banks and violets, And in whose fenny labyrinth The bittern booms and heron wades; Spirit of the lake and seas and rivers, Bear only perfumes and the scent Of healing herbs to just men's fields!

A vertical photograph deep inside a dense forest, featuring dramatic shafts of sunlight filtering down through the tall tree canopy. The sunbeams illuminate the mist in the air, creating a radiant, golden effect, and brightly light a small, vibrant sapling and the dense undergrowth in the foreground. The surrounding pines and evergreens are dark and shadowed.

It was chilly this morning, and my borby Anna's male was willing to let me stick my lens in his face while he warmed up on the feeder. First, the innocent look... Then the surprised look...oh, you're taking pictures??? Now he's getting angry, how dare you take my picture when I'm so round... ...and the finale, the face on gorget flare from a borb Anna's so you really feel his vibe this morning.

You know the nonsense about London being unfriendly: the other day bashed my finger in a local shop buying crispy chili oil &the owner wouldn’t let me leave until it had been dabbed and covered with one of her elastoplasts (plasters for US guys) no one mention accident proneness, nothing to see here

I am resurrecting this Storm Shelter Daylily for today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #warmth. The glowing center looks like a fire, and since we're expecting a winter storm today & tomorrow, this image hits just right. 🔥🧡💛

A perfect morning in El Cerrito…

My wife organized a fun gathering at Castro Park for our school’s kindergarten kids and parents.

And on our walk home a friend saw us and invited us in to meet the four six week old kittens they’re fostering. 🐈🐈‍⬛😻

After a long hike, and lots of running, I still made it before sunrise! The only soul, I was treated to a breathtaking view of South Africa's Blyde River canyon, the calls of baboons echoing in the the distance, and birds circling below.

I've been saving this view for #Stunday. Clear skies, a quiet trail, and early fall colors in the Cascades.

#photography #pnw #landscapephotography #nature #naturephotography #mountains #autumn #hiking
A narrow dirt trail winds along the edge of a small alpine lake with calm, reflective water. Low shrubs with early fall colors line the path, and tall evergreens angle in from the right. Jagged gray ridgelines rise across the background under a clear blue sky, giving the scene a wide open, high-country feel.
