Howdy all! I'm Phil, I'm a Hoosier and I like #clouds, #nature, and just about anything that strikes my fancy when a lucky bit of natural composition comes my way

#Photography is a fun hobby for me just to document pretty or interesting things I've seen, and I hope you enjoy what I have to share!
A sunset with tones of amber reflecting off of low, flat clouds Late afternoon sky with small wispy clouds Gloomy evening sky of mostly gray toned clouds with tree branches in the foreground, slightly blurred from wind Heavy storm clouds in center frame, with blue sky and sunshine peaking through gaps above and below

Took a break from posting there for awhile, but earlier this fall I was treated to some wonderful views at a wedding venue I officiated at in Connecticut and I feel compelled to share :)

A stone arch off center in frame shows a path turn right before rich green grass and some early autumn trees richly bathed in sunlight Sun shines through leaves of a tree reaching over the path from the right as it continues toward a wood

A calm morning in #Yellowstone. One of my first stopping points on my trip around the park, a handful of bison made themselves known in the trees to the right of this framing just after I took this shot.

A small tuft of tall, spindly evergreens sits at the right of frame on the shore of a pond, the sun shining through the very top of them. A thick grove of trees sits on the opposite bank, with calm waters reflecting them at the shore. A rich cobalt sky sits above

Backlit mountains

Round mountains backlit by the evening sun cross the horizon with a pale blue sky awaiting the night.

Rolling hills

Saturated shady trees roll from both sides of the frame to a central valley. A rich blue sky with wispy clouds hangs above and a small rocky outcropping just from the center of the wood to the left

Moody contrast in the evening

Cobalt clouds cover most of an evening sky, with dark trees ringing a pond reflecting the soft yellow of dying light

Happy 219 Day to all the Region Rats out there

#indiana #theregion #regionrat
A sticker of a rat with the words "The Region" around it, a reference to the monicker "Region Rat" given to people from the northern Indiana counties in Chicago's sphere of interest. 219 is the area code, thus February 19th is 219 Day

A casual stroll

A footbridge crosses over a walking path at the start of autumn, small trees dot the sides and fallen leaves obscure the pavement

The damp and beautiful wilderness around Sprague Lake in Estes Park

#photography #colorado #estespark
A stream runs through the center of a clearing in a pine forest, with many naturally felled trees spanning its width. The greenery is richly saturated in the cloudy diffuse light Between two trees you see a mountaintop, still snowy in midsummer, with fallen trees and undergrowth in the foreground

The wonderful open range of the ranch I stayed at on my way to Yellowstone

From on a hill, a pagoda covers a recessed stone sitting area in the foreground while the low evening sun casts deep shadows from the smooth, lumpy hills in the background

Heavy blue and violet clouds fill the foreground, with taller white clouds far away peaking through a gap in the center of the blue. A band of pale yellow contrasts sharply at the horizon

Fun shots from Luftgekuhlt 7 in Indianapolis back in 2021, a celebration of the air-cooled cars of Porsche. They had a photo safari with particularly nice or interesting examples throughout the Mass Ave area

A couple fun shots of fog. First is a pond in my neighborhood, I forget if there's a filter on this or if I purposefully unfocused the shot. Second is a shot of the of Philadelphia city hall on a particularly foggy evening

I don't usually edit photos but this one was actually an amalgam of two because of how my phone camera focused with the window. Taken at the Hotel Tango distillery in Indianapolis, I thought it was interesting to contrast the brick with nature outdoors
