An old soul living in the desert. Enjoying the painted skies over Sombrero Peak and the Alpenglow over the Catalinas. I enjoy reading, photography gardening, my dogs, music and learning. No DM's. Photos are mine unless RP's.

My first and only visit to Bridal Veil Falls in Telluride was a little breezy, but made for some neat patterns in the mist being produced by the falls. #WaterfallWednesday #Landscape #Nature #Outdoors #Colorado #Waterfall #Mountains
Tall waterfall plunging down a steep rocky cliff into a misty basin, with moss-covered boulders and a small stream in the foreground beneath a partly cloudy sky.

#Bloomscrolling #Cactus #Blooms Finally, a bloom that didn't get eaten by desert critters. My heart is so happy! ❤️ Glad I protected the planter with card board after cactus were destroyed.

Good Morning! Have a fabulous Wednesday! @stormhour.com @thephotohour.bsky.social @panophotos.bsky.social
At the time I took this picture the message from Microsoft at the left side of the toolbar said "thunderstorms in the vicinity." Well, there weren't. Might happen later. We will see.

A misty mountain ridge partially obscured by thick swirling fog, with silhouetted evergreen trees and rocky, autumn-toned slopes emerging from the dense haze.

Macro Monday! Our little hedgehog cactus which we transplanted from San Diego to the foothills of the Huachuca Mountains in southern Arizona bloomed again last night We had a bunch of blossoms a couple months ago and now we have this random single Weird
Pink blossoms and yellow central bits. Used my macro rig (since I just got the spider photo) to take this picture. Plus, macro works great for flowers. Still had it at like f/14, so all of the flower is in focus. Look at the detail!

A scenic mountain landscape viewed through tall evergreen trees in the foreground, overlooking a valley with autumn-colored vegetation and rolling forested ridges fading into hazy blue mountains under a clear pale evening sky.

Have a lovely #Scape Day! Looking from the Great Bear Wilderness in Flathead National Forest into Glacier National Park. What a privilege to live in such a magical place for six months! #ForestFriday #GlacierNationalPark #PublicLand
Looking from the Great Bear Wilderness in Flathead National Forest into Glacier National Park. You get a small glimpse of the Middle Fork of the Flathead River. 

What a privilege to live in such a magical place for six months!

Puget Sound at sunset, and sky got a little carried away. 🌅 #photography #BlueSkyMonday #MountainMonday #sunset #clouds #pnw #landscape #landscapephotography
Sunset over Puget Sound from an elevated forested ridge. A large cloud formation sweeps diagonally across a blue-purple sky, its edges catching orange and pink from the light below. The horizon glows yellow where the sun just dropped. Dark conifers fill the foreground, a forested peninsula pushes into the water in the middle distance, and mountain silhouettes hold the far shore.
