Just now. -4°C. My garden. The frost lies thick around my little Robin friend. Hope you all have the best of days wherever you are in the world. 🫶 #BirdOfTheDay #mostrecent #scape #photography #birds #EastCoastKin
A European robin with a bright orange-red face and chest perches side-on atop a cluster of frost-covered dried flower heads. Its soft brown back and wings are warmly lit by low winter sunlight, while its pale grey belly appears slightly fluffed against the cold. The bird’s slender beak points left and its dark, round eye is sharply in focus. Crystals of white frost outline the curled petals and stems beneath its feet. The background is softly blurred in deep greens and browns, creating a calm woodland atmosphere that emphasizes the robin and the delicate winter frost.

Ten thousand flowers in spring,
the moon in autumn,
a cool breeze in summer,
snow in winter.

If your mind isn’t clouded by unnecessary things, this is the best season of your life. ~ Wu-men ~

A man sits on a building ledge in bright sunlight along a wet cobblestone street that is lined with brightly colored buildings. The brightly colored buildings are a strong contrast to the black clouds overhead. There is the back of a sign on the right side that has beer advertising stickers stuck to the plain white back. A couple of cars are parked on the street. Trinidad, Cuba

A low angle cascading waterfall runs in front of a deciduous forest. The long exposure time creating misty effects where the water flows against and over obstacles.

Sunlight slices through a misty valley to ignite a stand of vivid green trees on a dark hillside, their glowing leaves contrasting with the surrounding shadows and layered mountain slopes.

What curiosities are revealed when coaxed by bathing photographic subjects with #ultraviolet light? Especially plants and flowers that fluoresce. Shine a powerful UV torch in darkness and find out. #photography #uvlights #uvivfphotography #ultravioletphotography #uvivf #EastCoastKin #bloomscrolling
