Spring sprang🌸 Seemingly overnight and despite dropping temperatures
#Photography #AltText #NYC

A close-up color photo taken directly upwards under a blooming tree. The branches all crisscross making almost a bit of a grid. There's a bit of sunlight coming through, otherwise it is covered in pink flowers and bits of newly sprouting green leaves
A color photo taken further away of the same tree. The pink tree is in the middle of the photo, which is in Union Square, Park. In the foreground is a very large cement planter with yellow daffodils coming out of it. On the right is some fencing and in the back some people can be seen walking into the center of the park. There are large trees behind the pink tree and they are all also beginning to sprout green leaves for the spring.

Another day and another beautiful robin!

They're daily visitors to the garden, so much so that I'm 99% sure I can recognise them by their song.

A lenticular cloud lit up at sunset at the Perito Morena Glacier in Argentina. Taken on Good Friday in 2019 by Barry Butler , it's called the "Halo Effect".

THREAD 1/

Most of you here know me as a writer, but first (and maybe foremost) I am a photographer. And on that note, I have an announcement.

There is a philosophical tradition that insists we are not vessels moving through the world separate from it, but instead in continuous exchange with it. The places we move through, the weather we stand in, the land we work on and shape, the social forces we encounter. They get in, they change us. We are made of them

Monochrome photograph of a rolling Highland hillside, its surface textured with peat hags and tussock grass. The hill rises to a broad, rounded summit against a flat grey sky. No human presence, the landscape fills the entire frame.

Magenta orchids photographed in Kigali, Rwanda. 🌺

Shot with a Nikon D7200 and 105mm macro lens. If you look closely, a tiny ant is sheltering on one of the central buds. A happy accident that makes the image.

'Farbe: Grün (keine Pflanzen)'

#FotoVorschlag #photography #landscape #boat #sea

Ein hellblauer, wolkenloser Himmel wölbt sich über einer weiten, spiegelglatten Wasserfläche, die im Hintergrund von einem schmalen Uferstreifen mit grünen Bäumen begrenzt wird. Im Vordergrund liegt ein schmales, hellgrünes Holzboot im seichten, klaren Wasser, das zur Hälfte gesunken ist, sodass das dunkle Innere und die hölzernen Sitzbänke unter der Wasseroberfläche sichtbar sind. Zwei braune Ruder ragen schräg aus dem Boot heraus und stützen sich auf eine verwitterte Holzpalette am unteren Bildrand. Links ragen hohe, vertrocknete Schilfhalme in warmen Beigetönen steil nach oben und bilden einen markanten vertikalen Kontrast zur horizontalen Weite des Sees. Der sandige Grund unter dem flachen Wasser ist durchsetzt mit Steinen und Pflanzenresten, während sich das sanfte Sonnenlicht auf der gesamten Szenerie spiegelt und eine friedliche, fast einsame Frühlingsatmosphäre schafft.

Photograph of a conniving, but cute little beagle, looking sadly up at the camera, as if he’s never had any breakfast at all instead of the two breakfast that he has already eaten.

Close-up photo of a purple bell-shaped flower against a smudgy green background. The image is low-contrast, somewhat misty looking, a consequence of a fogged up front lens, if I recall correctly.

A wide-angle view, looking up from the sidewalk at Saint Paul's Catholic Church in Noe Valley, San Francisco. Monochrome. Built between 1897 and 1911, this massive stone church with two tall spires stands tall... but also squats heavily near the southern end of Church Street. It is hard to miss. Anyway, the church was featured in the 1992 Whoopi Goldberg movie Sister Act. Near the end of the movie, the fictional Pope (who was soft on crime) attended a concert... where Whoopi and her singing nuns sang My Guy (referring informally to God) with great volume and enthusiasm.

Macro photograph of about fifteen water droplets clinging to the red and orange sporophytes of green and brown mosses just below. Some are in focus, others are blurred. Each droplet reflects or appears to contain the image of a tree with black branches and trunk located nearby. Photographie macro d'une quinzaine de gouttes d'eau accrochées aux sporophytes rouges et oranges de mousses vertes et brunes juste dessous. Certaines sont au focus, d'autres sont flous. Chaque goutte reflète ou semble contenir l'image d'un arbre aux branches et tronc noirs se trouvant tout près.

We discovered the Bleu Horses (not a spelling error) out near Three Forks, Montana yesterday. They're quite interesting sculptures, made by Jim Dolan, that have features that move in the wind. Manes and tails, obviously, from the photos... but also some of them will move their heads when the wind gusts! #photography #montana

#squared #photography #dandelion

A square black-and-white close-up of a dandelion that is already half empty. In the center is the light-colored head, to which the seeds with their parachutes are—or were—attached. In the blurred background are more dandelions. The image grows darker toward the edges. It never ceases to amaze me what kind of shots you can take handheld with a compact camera (in this case, the Sony RX100VA).

A black and white portrait photo of a tall thin bird standing on a large branch. Behind the bird are many white blobs of out of focus birds on a lake. The tall thin bird faces toward the left. It has a very long neck and hair like features hanging from its back. Its beak is long and its light colored under the chin with a dark spot on the top of its head.

Moon In The Morning

Driving up the east coast of Iceland on a brisk winter's day, the low sun barely warmed us. As we reached this isolated place between two mountain ranges, we could see that the head of the fjord was almost untouched by the weak sunlight.

The waning gibbous moon was the perfect final touch.

Late November, Stöðvarfjörður in eastern Iceland.

#SilentSunday #StillerSonntag #Stunday #Iceland #Photography

A colour photo of a snow-covered landscape under a partly cloudy sky. The view is of the rounded end of a fjord, looking away from the body of water at a curved glacial semi-bowl of rock. Tall peaks form the crest on the left. The foreground is a road going off to the left and curving round across the lower half of the shot where a river is snaking through on the right. The snowy and icy ground is mostly in blue shadow from the low sunlight from the left, except for the end of the fjord head on the right, which is catching some light. Above the peaks on the left is a gibbous moon.

A colorful, flower-shaped carousel ride decoration with a smiling face in the center against a clear blue sky. The flower's petals are a mix of pink, purple, green, and yellow, and each petal is adorned with small, round lights. The face in the center of the flower has large blue eyes, a red nose, and a wide, friendly smile. The lighting is bright and sunny, creating a cheerful and festive atmosphere.
