Panoramic landscape photograph taken at golden hour showing rolling hills of Del Valle Regional Park in Livermore, California. The foreground features golden-brown dried grass covering steep hillsides dotted with dark green oak trees. The middle ground reveals a winding valley with a golf course's manicured green fairways adjacent to vineyard rows. Multiple layers of hills fade into a hazy distance under a warm orange and amber sky. The evening light casts long shadows across the undulating terrain, creating dramatic contrast between the sunlit ridges and shadowed valleys. The atmospheric haze creates a dreamy, layered effect as the hills recede toward the horizon.

A watchful pronghorn stands in tall grass beneath the bold, rising form of Mount Moran, surrounded by fall colors.

A male pronghorn with tan and white fur stands alert in a golden autumn meadow, facing slightly to the side. Behind him, a dense forest with orange and green trees stretches across the scene, and the massive rock face of Mount Moran towers above in the distance under a blue sky with wispy clouds.

City of Rocks is a unique New Mexico state park known for its stunning, otherworldly volcanic rock formations, which resemble a city skyline, complete with "streets" and "buildings". It is located in the Chihuahuan Desert, roughly halfway between Silver City & Deming.

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.

Cabin 736 stands weathered and worn in the wide Wyoming plains, its warped roof and broken windows telling a story of time and neglect.

A herd of sleepy horses grazes and rests in a sunlit meadow as the Grand Teton Mountains tower behind them under a clear sky.

#LandscapePhotography #nature #NaturePhotography #photography #TravelPhotography #WildlifePhotography
A golden morning light bathes a wide field where horses of various colors--palomino, bay, white, and paint--graze or lie down across the golden grass. Behind them, a row of autumn-colored trees lines the field, and the towering Grand Teton Mountains rise in the distance beneath a clear, pale blue sky.
