Dreams in Green
"The serene scene captures a natural landscape. In the upper half, dense foliage—likely ferns or similar plants—creates a lush backdrop. Shades of vibrant green dominate, forming a rich tapestry. The lower half features bright grass-like plants growing vertically from the water’s edge. Their reflection on the water’s surface divides the image horizontally, creating symmetry. Overall, it exudes tranquility and untouched nature." - Microsoft Copilot

A low-angle, close-up photograph of small clusters of pale buff and pinkish-brown mushrooms growing out of a damp autumn forest floor. The foreground cluster is in sharp focus, showing delicate bell-shaped caps with faint radial lines and slender, slightly frosty stems huddled together. Surrounding them is a carpet of decaying dark brown and bright canary-yellow fallen leaves. In the softly blurred background, more little clusters of pale mushrooms recede into the shadowy, dark green woodland undergrowth, creating a cosy, earthy autumn mood.

A maple leaf lies on a rough paved road surface. Colours on the leaf run from rusty-brown on the outer edges, through green and finally bright yellow in the middle.

Cloaked in rime and shadow, the old watcher folds inward, listening to the deep pulse of the earth beneath the roots. 🪶🌿🦉🐦🍁
A full-length photograph of a Great Blue Heron perched on a weathered, barkless log extending over a murky green river or pond. The bird is captured in a humorous, awkward pose, with its long neck tightly compressed and curved downward against its chest. Its sharp, yellowish beak points straight down, making the heron look as though it is shrugging dramatically or looking downward in a sheepish, exaggerated manner. Its shaggy blue-grey feathers are slightly ruffled, and its long, thin legs grip the log firmly. The background features dark, shadowy foliage along the water's edge, highlighting the bright green color of the water's surface.

Looking across a small rock & stick filled creek into a sunbeam illuminating the changing colours of the forest all beneath a brilliant blue sky. The sun is making a late morning appearance casting shadows which highlight the autumn colours on tall skinny maple seeding trees. The forest floor is covered with moss, ivy & bramble all but glowing in the warmth of the moment

The shaded and muddy banks of a shallow estuary inlet at low tide hold the degrading remains of a young birch tree that might have died and fallen over due to salt water exposure; in the distance the arm of the inlet expands to the forested horizon and beyond, a world soaked in soft morning sunlight and a deep tranquility

You will find many tracks in the forest. Some are visible and others not so. The combination of rain, sun, wet brown soil against the moss and trees spoke loudly! #ForestofDean #WoodlandPhotography #Nature #Moss #Photography
Tracks in the forest evidence of machinery for the logging of trees. Soaked by the rain and with the arrival of the sun, creates an image of bright green moss and glistening mud.

Numinous... Abstract #streetphotography from Saturday night, using slow shutter and camera movement gives this street scene a supernatural feel. You might not see the people, but can you perceive some feet? Spooky. #icm #photography
Night street scene using 1/8 sec shutter handheld while walking at a normal pace. 
A Numinous event is defined as being filled with or characterized by sense of a supernatural presence.

What do you think?

Robson Square on the weekend. Remember when buses went through here? As a West Ender who would use the 5, I’m happy to have this plaza.
People walking through a plaza on a grey day. On the left is an installation of Lunar New Year lanterns about 10 feet tall all designed by local artists. Above, strings and stands of market lights glowing purple. City shops flank the street past the plaza

Send in the clowns This wild turkey looks like a depressed clown to me for some reason. I just learned their faces turn colors like a mood ring, but I don't think the blue means they're depressed. #BirdOfTheDay #SideProfiles #BlueSkyMonday #EastCoastKin #ECK #PhotographersUnited #Photography
A close-up of a wild turkey facing right with its head drooped a bit in a field of green grass and flowers. Sunlight is illuminating it's neck wattle and the hairs on its head. Its face is light blue, its snood is red, and its neck is red with white and black. The iridescent feathers are shining in the sun. It has a front ponytail coming out of its chest.

#BlueskyMonay #MountainMonday #AlphabetChallenge #SeekJforJuxtaposition I was amused how the cloud juxtaposed on top of Bishop Peak looked like the mountain was erupting. 🌋😁 The peak is actually a volcanic plug. #ECK #Hiking #LandscapePhotography #BishopPeak #WestCoastKin
Viewing the top of Bishop Peak from Cerro San Luis mountain, there is a cloud sitting on top of Bishop Peak that is gray and resembles smoke in its color and form. It looks like the mountain could be erupting. Otherwise, the sky is blue with some clouds off in the distance. The mountains and hills are green. A shadow falls across the bottom of the image, silhouetting the nearby vegetation. San Luis Obispo, California
