Forgotten River Path Old Course Saco River Lovell, Maine 2026 #ClassicMono #ECK #Photography #Mono #LandscapePhotography #River #Trees #Maine #ThreeWordGenre
Mono image of still water with trees and their reflections, looking from a shady area into sun on the trees.
The Saco River runs from Saco Lake in Crawford Notch in the White Mountains in New Hampshire, through Maine, to the Atlantic at Saco Bay.
In the early 1800's, a 6 mile long canal was dug that shortened the river, bypassing many twists and turns. The canal made it easier for farmers to transport goods to markets.
The Old Course Saco River is the 21.9 remnant waterway that twists through Fryeburg and Lovell. The upriver entrance is largely silted over, but there is still some water that runs through, providing recreation like fishing and boating.

The day started misty and grey but by the time I reached this point on Blackdown the sun was out and the sky was a beautiful blue. Scots Pines on Blackdown in West Sussex. #BlueSkyMonday #WestSussex #Surrey #Trees #Landscape #Photography
Blackdown is the highest point in the South Downs National Park and in Sussex. It reaches a height of 918ft. It is just across the border from Surrey and near to where I live.🥾

"St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, a Canadian city in the Haut-Richelieu area of ​​the Montérégie region.
In 1666, the first wooden fort—Fort Saint-Jean—was erected on the banks of the Richelieu River at the initiative of Alexandre de Prouville de Tracy. The urban core developed within the fortifications. Initial urban expansion outside the fort took place around 1750, and the nascent village core was consolidated between 1776 and 1786 by the massive influx of Loyalists. A suburb formed along the road leading to Chambly (now Richelieu Street) and was named "The Rookery." St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, a Canadian city in the Haut-Richelieu area of ​​the Montérégie region. Beauty autumn=)

Le noyau urbain s'est développé à l'intérieur des fortifications. L'expansion urbaine initiale hors du fort a eu lieu vers 1750, et le noyau villageois naissant s'est consolidé entre 1776 et 1786 grâce à l'afflux massif de Loyalistes. Une banlieue s'est formée le long de la route menant à Chambly (aujourd'hui la rue Richelieu) et a été baptisée « The Rookery »." La beauté de l'automne =)

I took a photo of the River Severn yesterday from a long way away. I thought the sun’s rays through the cloud and mist on the far bank looked lovely. #PhotoArt
A river from afar. There are fields, roads and buildings on the near side. In the distance the sun’s rays can be seen lighting up the mist and trees in front of some hills.

#BlueSkyArtShow For this wk's #3rdPlace theme, my happy place: the streets in front of cool #architecture, esp. before my beloved #skyscrapers, with my camera in hand. #ClassicMono #StreetPhotography #LightAndShadow #UrbanGaze #Photography #Photographers #BWPhotography #BnW #ECK #GeometricShapes
An upwards-looking, low-angle, vertical black-and-white photograph captures a soaring modernist skyscraper with a complex, geometric glass-paneled facade. The architecture features a stepped design where a wide, grid-like lower structure sharply recedes, giving way to a narrow, soaring tower that climbs dramatically toward the top of the frame. In terms of photographic style, the image uses high-contrast monochrome tones and intense, low-angle perspective to emphasize the building's monumental scale and sharp lines. The striking nature of the building comes from its deeply reflective surfaces, creating strong light contrasts as dark, grid-patterned glass mirrors soft white clouds, juxtaposing rigid industrial engineering with the organic movement of the sky.

A busy scene at a local garden. Rhodies, willows, birch, maples all planted closely together and in various stages of autumnal change. The garden is planted around a large pond that is incredibly low for this time of year. Vegetation grows atop the pond which also holds fallen red maples leaves.  Hoping for a little rain around this joint!!!
