#FallColour #Autumn Poplars & Birch at the base of the foothills, before Friday's storm took away all that glorious colour.
In the foreground, trees with white trunks crowned by gold and yellow leaves. Behind, dark green conical conifers backed by a strip of dusty blue/grey sky. The sun shines on the golden foliage making it glow against the darker greens.

Took this last year with my Yashica MAT 124 on Portra 160. Still like it better than anything I've taken this autumn using my Olympus M43 camera. #photography #filmphotography #landscape #utah #autumn #fall

#FallColour A beautiful view on the north side of the river, after the fog had lifted yesterday. Once the sun was out, the autumn colours glowed.
A riverside property; Poplars with golden coloured foliage, hiding the houses  behind them. Dark green, sun tipped conical evergreens in the background with grey clouds above. Center foreground is lawn widening on its way down to the river bank. It is strewn with golden leaves.

Pressure where it hurts. A short conversation with their employers, their clients, their customers, and so on. They wouldn't be able to afford those fancy duds with no income.

Love these colours and the shading in the late summer.
Brilliant orange and green leaves in the afternoon sun.  Shadows fall on some.

Yes. I've been saying this for years, mostly to deaf ears. We should always have the right to travel from here to there, pretty much anytime we want or need. But we shouldn't have the latitude to put other's lives and wellbeing at risk. Really hard to get people to sign on to this.

Impromptu still-life on a kitchen counter this morning. Getting ready for our little granddaughter. 😊
Bright sunshine on kitchen counter.  Strong shadows.  A watermelon, some sliced cucumber, and a partially filled jar of water.  Among other things.

Ouch! Years ago I rode a motorcycle down a foggy mountain road. And hit a cow broadside. I did two full flips in the air and slid on my back for twenty feet on gravel. The cow disappeared into the fog. I think the cow was just shaken up. But I know I was.

The BC government has announced planning is underway for the Indigenous-Led Conservation Area previously declared for the Raush Valley. Protecting much of this old-growth inland rainforest from road-building and logging. It's long been on my radar. So, good news on this day.

I secure my trash can with a swaged aircraft cable and a spring-type carabiner. Fast, simple, and bear-proof. Every municipality can do something similar. Should be no excuse.

These were my dad’s favorite birds. I lost him a couple years ago and I’ve found it helpful to imagine that his spirit lives on in these birds. I see them often along the bike trails that I frequent and I always say a little hello as I pass.  RED WINGED BLACKBIRD, Acrylic, 16x16” ©2026 Jim Musil

Beautiful view. That could be Mount Chephren I suppose. A difficult scramble if so. Out of the question now for me. But it was on my dream list years ago. Kudos to those who have done the climb.

I hiked up to Broken Top Mountain and No Name Lake today. The hike I wanted to do was about 5.6 miles but the road to that start was closed. I ended up hiking 14 miles rated as hard. I’ll be in pain tomorrow!

Thank you. As I recall, I think they are called snow-in-summer. Very hardy and wanting to spread widely.

These lovely flowers have been growing in our yard for over 40 years now. Treasured.
White and yellow flowers in bright sunshine.  Snow-in-summer as I remember.

#Fungi #MushroomMonday October 2024. This mushroom was growing out of the side of a well rotted log.
A pale yellow mushroom. The cap is slightly inverted, the backlit gills are fully displayed. The stipe is a dark amber colour. Sphagnum moss  and linaria add bright green to foreground. In the background are dark green conifer needles.

Looking easy into Glacier National Park from the Great Bear Wilderness in northwestern Montana.

We had a mild winter. It has been a warm spring. The high peaks in Glacier stubbornly cling to their snowy blankets as long as they can. 

These mountains were born to be cold.
