Beautiful shot. Do you know the Greek myth of Philemon and Baucis? Your pic and words reminded me of it. Here's a quick summary from classictales.co.uk/metamorphose...

I've not been out with the camera much over the past week, but I thought I'd submit this shot of a spindly silver birch for #Sharemondays2025

Here are my 4 entries for the September round of #FSPrintMonday. All images were shot in the Lake District, close to the village of Hawkshead.

See ALT comments for info about each image.

On an early morning walk up my local hill, it was very wet and murky. I optimistically had my camera with me, and I was eventually rewarded as the cloud briefly cleared to briefly reveal this scene.

Berries on a rowan in a dark corner amongst a cluster of trees.

A calm autumn morning on Esthwaite Water, with the overnight mist beginning to lift.

The beginning of autumn colours shortly after sunrise.

For #Sharemondays2025 this week - a calm morning on Esthwaite Water, with the mist gradually clearing.

My entry for #Sharemondays2025 this week is a result of experimenting with my macro lens, and photographing tiny fungi in my local woods. #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #macro #macrophotography #fungi #Nikon #OPOTY #PhotoRippin

Thank you! It's been raining almost solidly here for the past week!

David Rippin @dmrippin.bsky.social · 18d

The forest is full of fungi right now... it's just spectacular... but challenging to photograph.
