The goblet: Lybrook badlands, NW New Mexico #rockintuesday #eastcoastkin #blackandwhite #classicmono #wilderness #newmexico #hiking #badlands #landscapephotography #hoodoos
Central in the image is a long-stem goblet-shaped hoodoo, with a blockier, more jagged hoodoo on the right. A juniper bush takes up the left side of the photo. The sky above is devoid of clouds and appears darker at right than at left.

#ECK #RockinTuesday #landscape When people say, “Pictures don’t do it justice,” it often means photos lose the depth and perspective of the scene. For instance, here, what looks like dried out, feathery white desert scrub brush is actually a stand of leafless cottonwoods on the floor of this canyon…
A view across a red rock canyon from the rim, with leafless trees on the canyon floor. The sloping canyon wall is dotted with juniper and scrub.

I’m always grateful when I can take a quick lunch break hike when I’m working out of town. Most of the time the lighting isn’t exactly ideal, but when it is, it’s golden.

Iceland has a lot of spectacular waterfalls, but this pair is near the top of the list for me. The scene makes me marvel at how nature could create something so beautiful. To help with scale, I estimate the upper drop to be ~50-60 feet. #timothykeeneyphotography #photography #landscapephotography

A bright orange sunset streaks across a clouded sky above silhouetted houses, with utility wires and rooftop antennas crossing the view.

The last breath of day Streaks across the sky Turning blue to Salmon pink by way Of saying goodbye To light. Goodnight. #BlueSkyArtShow #Lights #ImageAndVerse #EastCoastKin #ECK #PhotographersUnited #PhotographersOfBlueSky #iPhonePhotography #DailyArt #OnlyBeautifulThings
The last rays of the sun colour wispy clouds that seem to spread outwards as if being fired out from the fire. Peachy against a bluish sky, criss-crossed by
fading vapour trails from jets. Below, trees and hedges are reduced to a supporting role in this spectacular light show as silhouettes.

The Colorado Trail @coloradotrail.pages.dev · 25/09/2026
Considering that Segment 28 plunges thousands of feet from the Continental Divide to Durango, I didn't think I would ever have to pedal, but it turned out to be no easier than any other segment. coloradotrail.pages.dev #coloradotrail #photography #hiking #mountainbiking

Ten years ago today I was in the High Sierra in California on the fourth day of one of my favourite walks, Yosemite Valley to Death Valley. It was very hot and very beautiful. #hiking

Hot lava sky (No filters used)
The sunset sky looking west toward the foothills.  Brilliant yellow and orange filled the sky with dark storm clouds above that reminded me of steam coming off of hot lava.
