Stubbs, a thick-trunked redwood at Olmsted Point in Yosemite National Park, most likely struck by lightning, still stands as a proud sentinel of nature's resiliency. and it growing out of granite.

The 6th highest grossing picture of 1967 in the U.S. had SIDNEY POITIER in particular benefit from the film's success having negotiated a $30k fee in exchange for 10% of the gross (which totalled $42m in the U.S. alone). TO SIR, WITH LOVE (1967)

The sun kisses one ocean goodbye, and another hello. Every end is a beginning somewhere.
Photo by Travis Rupert. The sun hovers just above the horizon, casting molten gold across the surface of gently rolling waves. The sea breathes in slow pulses, washing over the shore with a shimmer that stretches toward the camera like a path of light. Sky and water melt into each other, shifting from deep blue to soft amber, as if the world is holding its breath at the edge of day.

Looking up a rough, rocky hiking trail that winds through pine trees and colorful brush. In the background, massive, jagged mountain cliffs with snow-filled gullies rise into a misty, overcast sky.

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power. The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever. But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

Bald Eagle 🦅 courtship cartwheel display involves a male and female eagle flying into the thermos where they grasp talons then glide in dramatic fashion back down, then break apart when they're nearing the ground. Afterwards they go to the nest to mate. They are monogamous

That's what sailing is, a dance, and your partner is the sea. And with the sea you never take liberties. You ask her, you don't tell her. You have to remember always that she's the leader, not you. You and your boat are dancing to her tune. Michael Morpurgo ✨

Good morning🕊️ Waking to the gentle rhythm of rain has caused such a feeling of happiness, realizing just how deeply I've missed it. I'm heading to the woods to breathe in the sweet smell of petrichor & listen to the forest exhale a grateful sigh Wishing you a peaceful day #photography #nature
Looking into the forest from a mossy fallen tree. Autumn is evident in this photo with leaves turning rapidly with the season. Rusty maple leaves are strewn along the dirt path keeping the fallen sticks company on the forest floor. A tiny trail bordered by ferns leads to more changing trees all peaceful beneath a grey/blue sky
