Had no idea that existed! I'd love to take a run down there, though realistically it's kinda far for shits and giggles.

Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman at one time had volunteer dig programs. If they still do, it would be very worth a look. I had an amazing time on one, but that was a long time ago.

I always loved that moment, plus the one where Pippin drops the stone down the well andtheansweringhammer. Wish the movie had stuck with the subtle touch there.

Best bassoon concerto I've heard this month! Seriously, very nice and I always like hearing a bassoon take the spotlight.

Vertical photograph of a peaceful evening river scene. A wide glassy river flows towards wooded mountain ridges, reflecting tree textures and a dappled evening sky of blue with pale yellow clouds. In the foreground is a distinctive hook shape composed of sand and grass tussocks.

So good! I love how it feels detailed and yet minimalist at once.

I love my tripod and usually love working with it, it's definitely an aid to flow and mindfulness for me. But it has situational limitations, to be sure. And I agree that overemphasis on sharpness and detail can blind one to creative opportunities.

Happy Public Lands Day! All four of these images were taken on straight-up public land - not National Park, Monument or Wilderness. There's so much out there, and our formal protected categories by no means cover all the amazing places. #landscapephotography #publiclands #idaho #nevada #newmexico
Landscape photo of steep snowy mountains and tawny hills at sunset, with a complex pattern of dappled golden light mixed with shadow. Photograph of two high desert peaks under an orange sunset sky. The larger peak in the distance wears a lenticular cloud on its summit. The closer one has sparse trees around its base, with steeper rock outcrops higher up. They are separated by a broad and empty yellow plain.Vertical photograph of a landscape of very steep granite cliffs and crags, with just a tough of warm light on the highest formation.Landscape photo overlooking a sparsely timbered valley in autumn, with warm low angle sunlight shining in from the upper right, illuminating green shrubs and red ground flora.

Interesting... would this run on a 2-3 year old Android phone? Though I could try the desktop version, which is probably what I'd mostly use anyway.

Ours will be there in just three years, but he and all his friends are far more interested in trades (despite his liberal arts parents). I do feel there's a strong chance that degrees from the next 5-10 years will be regarded as a joke: the AI BS years where graduates came out clueless.

Damn. I lost mine in under a year, very unlike me, but it eventually turned up in a storage box. Best of luck.

That's lovely, Dorota! Somehow the stick really anchors and grounds the composition for me, makes it feel more alive than if it were just leaf and lichen.

Interesting, I might have guessed Zion, or maybe the Escalante country, but the Tavaputs has a LOT of relief and twisty drainages.

Very nice! I find it's good occasionally to spend time photographing a region on its default settings rather than seeking out the extraordinary.

Landscape photo of mountain scenery: a bland ridge and forested valley lit with golden light lead the eye to a line of shadowed alpine peaks under a mostly cloudy evening sky.Landscape photograph of a line of rugged peaks lit by yellow sunrise light reflecting perfectly in a still lake. The lake is lined with shadowed conifers and a band of green and yellow shoreline grass. Vertical photo of a deep forest scene. The foreground is covered with a pattern of ferns, mostly ghostly white from early autumn, though with bits of green. Behind the ferns, we see two shaded tree trucks with green shrubbery and more forest behind them.

Minimalist landscape photo of snowy agricultural fields under a white sky. Essentially everything in the frame is white except for some subtle lines of crop rows which hint at the shapes of hills.
