Acadia National Park, Maine USA. I’d forgotten how amazingly beautiful it really is.
On the left side of the picture, there’s a lone pine on a rocky shore with ocean waves breaking at its feet.

Another old little barn. I’m trying to capture images of as many as I can before they’re all gone. This one is west of Mount Vernon Iowa USA. Shot with iPhone 17 Pro.
A red barn with a stained white roof sits on the edge of field with pine trees in the background.

Porcupine Mountains State Park , Michigan USA. The shore is covered with smooth rocks instead of sand and these spiders enjoyed the warmth of the morning sun.
Various smooth, rounded stones of various shades of reddish brown. There are three spiders stretching out on the side of the rocks facing the sun.

Seychelles beach on Ikaria, Greece. A large multi-toned rock sits on a rocky beach at the Aegean Sea’s edge. Brown rocky mountains rise behind the rock. The beach was created by a rockslide and is accessible only via boat or a treacherous hike.

Ok I’m here to tiptoe through the #BirdOfTheDay posts. I will do my best to see as many as I can. Sorry if I miss you. #PerfectLight #photography #birds #EastCoastKin
A common redshank wades through shallow, still water, lifting one bright orange-red leg mid-step. Its soft brown upperparts and pale, finely speckled underparts are clearly visible, along with a straight bill that fades from red at the base to dark at the tip. Gentle ripples spread around its legs, and the bird’s full reflection is mirrored crisply in the calm surface below.

I believe that a light overcast is the best lighting condition for photographing birds, by avoiding harsh shadows and faithfully bringing out colors. This cedar waxwing enjoys #perfectlighting for a #birdoftheday shot. #birds #photography #nature #eastcoastkin

Against a clear blue sky, a hawk sits on a birch tree branch, facing away from the camera with its head turned sideways so its left eye and hooked beak are visible.

Clouds gather above Jenny Lake in Grand Tetons National Park. A summer storm is approaching. The waters of the lake are ruffled by the wind and late afternoon sun paints the clouds in a warm color. A little of the blue sky is seen among the clouds. The mountains are visible a couple of miles away, with forests at their base. The lake shore is covered in boulders of different sizes.
