Lily of the valley
#Mayblooms today #white

#photography #naturephotography #flower #macro #nature #attheforestfloor #EastCoastKin #wildlife #ArtYear
A close-up photograph of a delicate Lily of the Valley plant in a soft, green forest setting. The main focus is on a single, slender stem arching gently to the left, adorned with small, bell-shaped white flowers hanging down. Each flower is smooth and rounded, and they gradually increase in size from top to bottom. The plant is surrounded by large, smooth green leaves, and the background is softly blurred, giving a dreamy, tranquil feel. Gentle sunlight filters through the foliage, creating a peaceful and natural atmosphere.

In the forests and meadows of my homeland, the native #orchids are now beginning to bloom. One of the first is the pale orchid (Orchis pallens). Have you spotted any orchid yourself?

In the center of the image stands a single, delicate wildflower with a cluster of pale yellow and white blossoms. The flower rises vertically from the ground and is sharply in focus, standing out against a soft, dreamy background. The background is a blur of green shades, suggesting a lush forest or meadow. The out-of-focus green tones create a peaceful, almost ethereal atmosphere, making the flower appear as the quiet focal point of the natural scene.

A stormy winter's day by the sea

#ICM #Ocean #sea #nature #beach #coast #coastal #photography #EastCoastKin #PhotographersofBluesky
This image captures a restless and moody seascape. Large ocean waves roll in from the distance toward the foreground, their surfaces textured with white foam. The water appears in shades of deep gray and bluish tones, blending into the overcast sky above. The sky is almost the same color as the sea, creating a soft, misty horizon that makes it hard to tell where the ocean ends and the sky begins. There's a sense of motion in the waves, suggesting the wind is strong and the sea is turbulent. The overall atmosphere of the image is quiet but intense—evoking the raw, untamed power of nature in a cold and remote coastal setting.

#EastCoastKin #photography #PhotographersUnited #PhotographersofBluesky
This image shows a peaceful Arctic coastal landscape. In the foreground, a calm, gray-blue sea stretches across the scene. Beyond the water, a dark, snow-dusted peninsula extends from the left side, leading toward a dramatic mountain range on the right. The mountains are partially covered in snow, especially the prominent peak near the center, which rises sharply with rugged ridges and white slopes. On the far right, more snow-covered mountains continue out of the frame. Above the landscape, the sky is filled with thick, textured clouds in varying shades of gray. The cloud cover appears soft and layered, creating a moody, almost painterly atmosphere. There are no visible signs of human activity, giving the scene a feeling of remote, natural stillness.

This is a nighttime photograph capturing a dramatic coastal landscape. In the foreground, a dark, black sand beach stretches out beside a gently rolling sea, which appears soft and misty due to the long exposure. Towering, jagged mountains rise steeply from the shoreline, their rocky slopes partially dusted with patches of snow. Low clouds and mist swirl around the mountain peaks, adding a mysterious and ethereal atmosphere. Above the mountains, the sky is filled with streaks of moving clouds and faint stars peeking through. A soft glow of the Northern Lights — delicate greenish-blue tones — emerges in the sky, casting a subtle light on the scene. The image evokes a sense of quiet solitude and the raw beauty of nature at night.

#photography #monochromebynature
The image captures a dramatic seascape with powerful ocean waves crashing against dark, jagged rocks in the foreground. The sea is turbulent, with foamy white water spraying into the air from the impact of the waves. The sky above is a pale gray, blending almost seamlessly with the mist rising from the stormy water, giving the scene a cold and wild atmosphere. In the distance, a solitary bird is visible in flight, slightly blurred, adding a sense of movement and scale to the vast, restless ocean. The overall mood is intense and raw, reflecting the force of nature.

The image captures a dramatic sunset in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains. The sky is painted in vivid layers of orange, yellow, and hints of purple, with streaks of clouds adding texture to the colorful horizon. Silhouetted against the sky are rugged rock formations and forested hills. One prominent rock tower formation stands out on the right, while a broader plateau-like hill appears on the left. Below the horizon, a layer of pink and purple mist gently rolls over a dense forest, creating a mystical and serene atmosphere. The overall mood of the scene is calm and majestic, showcasing the natural beauty of this mountainous landscape at dusk.

#mountain #nature
The image showcases a breathtaking icy landscape with a glacier meeting a partially frozen body of water. Large chunks of blue ice float on the surface, contrasting with the dark, rugged mountains that surround the scene. The glacier, with its icy blue hues, extends from the mountains into the water, appearing massive and textured with crevices and ridges. Above the landscape, the sky is filled with dynamic cloud formations, streaked in soft white and gray, creating a sense of depth. The clouds partially cover the peaks of the mountains, adding a mystical touch to the image. The combination of ice, water, and sky makes the scene feel vast, cold, and serene.

The image showcases a cold, dramatic landscape with the foreground dominated by the icy expanse of a glacier tongue. The glacier’s surface appears rough and textured, with a mix of ice formations and darker patches of sediment. In the background, towering, snow-covered mountains rise sharply, their slopes displaying a striking contrast between dark exposed rock and thick layers of white snow. Jagged peaks and ridges enhance the ruggedness of the scene, while low-hanging clouds cast a heavy, moody atmosphere over the landscape. The overall color palette consists of shades of blue, gray, and white, emphasizing the harsh and remote nature of this environment.

The image showcases a dramatic landscape featuring a glacier nestled between rugged mountains. The foreground consists of a moss-covered plain with scattered rocks, adding a soft green contrast to the earthy brown hills. The middle ground is dominated by undulating, vegetation-covered slopes that transition into the steep, rocky terrain of the mountains. A jagged, icy blue glacier cascades down the mountainside, partially shrouded by mist and low-hanging clouds. The diffused, golden light gives the scene a warm, atmospheric glow, enhancing the contrast between the icy glacier and the surrounding landscape. The image captures the raw beauty of a remote and untouched wilderness.

The image depicts a vast, snow-covered landscape with rolling hills stretching into the distance. The terrain is predominantly white, with patches of dark, exposed earth and scattered rocks breaking through the snow. The gentle curves of the hills create a sense of depth and movement. Small, bare shrubs are visible in the foreground, adding subtle texture to the otherwise smooth and undisturbed winter scenery. The muted, cool tones give the scene a quiet, serene, and somewhat desolate atmosphere, evoking the remote beauty of Icelandic regions.

In January I had the incredible fortune to observe #PolarStratosphericClouds, also known as #nacreous or #motherofpearl clouds, in the #nightsky in #Iceland. They were illuminated by the #moonlight and are rarer to observe than the #aurora.

#EastCoastKin #AlphabetChallenge #WeekMforMulticoloured
The image shows polar stratospheric clouds illuminated by moonlight. These rare clouds display soft, flowing bands of iridescent colors, including shades of orange, pink, purple, and blue, stretching across the dark night sky. Tiny, scattered stars are visible in the background, and a single bright celestial object stands out on the right side. The ethereal, wave-like patterns of the clouds create a dreamlike and otherworldly atmosphere.

The image captures a delicate white flower bathed in soft sunlight. The petals are thin and slightly translucent, allowing light to pass through. The center of the flower has tiny yellow stamens that gently peek out. The background is a dreamy blur of green and blue hues, suggesting a meadow or forest floor. The composition emphasizes the flower’s fragile beauty, with a shallow depth of field creating a soft, ethereal atmosphere. Another partially visible flower appears blurred on the right side of the image, enhancing the sense of a peaceful, natural environment.

A stormy winter morning at the beach of #Gimsøy, one of the #Lofoten islands

I had some problems capturing the dynamics of the #waves and getting sharp images at the same time.

#PhotographersUnited #PhotographerOfBlueSky
The image depicts a cold coastal scene with waves crashing against dark, seaweed-covered rocks in the foreground. The motion of the water appears soft and misty, suggesting a long exposure capturing the movement of the sea. In the background, a majestic mountain range with snow-covered peaks stretches across the horizon. The sky above the mountains is tinged with soft hues of pink and blue, hinting at dawn or dusk. The overall atmosphere is serene yet powerful, with the contrast between the rugged shoreline and the distant, icy peaks.

One of those rare morning lights from my time at the #Lofoten with a #mountain that for me is looking like this special swiss chocolate.

#photographersofbluesky #BlueskyMonday #Landscape #Scape #nature #MountainMonday #EastCoastKin #sunrise #clouds #landscapephotography #Outdoors
The image captures a serene Arctic landscape on the Lofoten Islands just before sunrise. In the foreground, a rocky shoreline with patches of snow and seaweed stretches along the coast. Gentle waves roll onto the beach, reflecting the soft, early morning light. In the background, a dramatic mountain range rises from the water, covered in snow and marked by rugged, sharp peaks. The jagged ridges contrast beautifully with the sky above, which displays soft pastel hues of pink, orange, and blue, blending seamlessly in the pre-dawn light. Wispy, textured clouds add depth to the vast sky, creating a peaceful yet striking atmosphere. The scene conveys the calm and raw beauty of the Arctic wilderness, where the untouched nature of the Lofoten Islands is illuminated by the gentle glow of the approaching sunrise.

An evening in the #forest is for #MacroMonday

#EastCoastKin #ArtYear #macro #naturephotography #flower #spring #photographersofbluesky
The image features a single spring snowflake (Leucojum vernum) standing gracefully against the backdrop of a warm, golden sunset in a forest. The delicate, bell-shaped white flower with tiny green tips on its petals hangs downward from a slender, slightly curved stem. The background consists of blurred trees and vegetation, bathed in the soft, glowing light of the setting sun. The sun’s rays create a dreamy, abstract effect with circular bokeh highlights and streaks of shadow. The contrast between the dark foreground and the warm, golden hues in the background emphasizes the fragile beauty of the flower. The scene conveys a peaceful and almost poetic atmosphere, symbolizing the quiet transition from winter to spring.

A beautiful and colourful morning at my hometown for the #Stunday

#FotoVorschlag ‘Morgenröte’
#EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited #PhotographerOfBlueSky #Photography
The image captures a breathtaking sunrise over a hilly landscape. The sky is filled with vibrant colors, ranging from deep purples and rich pinks to soft oranges and warm yellows. Layers of clouds stretch across the sky, illuminated by the rising sun, creating a striking contrast between the dark, shadowed clouds and the glowing, fiery hues beneath them. In the lower part of the image, a silhouette of a hill is visible, with a small tower or monument standing prominently against the colorful sky. The base of the hill is covered in a thick layer of mist or fog, which adds a dreamy and mysterious atmosphere to the scene. The overall mood is peaceful and awe-inspiring, with the natural beauty of the sunrise taking center stage.

This image captures a breathtaking sunrise over a misty forest landscape. The sun is positioned in the upper right corner, casting a warm golden glow across the sky and rolling hills in the background. Layers of fog gently cover the dense forest, creating a dreamy, atmospheric effect. In the foreground, a rocky outcrop juts out over the valley. A small, resilient pine tree with lush green needles grows from the rock, accompanied by a weathered, twisted tree branch that reaches upwards. The rocks have a rough, textured surface with patches of moss and lichen. The scene exudes a sense of tranquility and vastness, with soft morning light enhancing the natural beauty of the forest and hills. The composition leads the viewer’s eye from the rugged foreground to the distant, mist-covered peaks, creating depth and perspective.
