Close-up photograph of a waxing gibbous moon occupying the upper half of the frame against a pure black sky. The lunar surface is rendered in sharp detail, revealing heavily cratered highlands on the left, large dark basaltic plains (maria) in the centre and upper right, and a crisp terminator line along the right side where sunlight gives way to shadow, dramatically highlighting the Moon's three-dimensional texture.

Two Double-crested Cormorants perch atop branches above green water of a lagoon. Light wisps of mist extend across the background. The shrubby backdrop is green, silver, and gold. In the bottom righthand corner, reflected in the water, is a white clapboard building possibly a church.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #PerfectLighting. Here, two Double-crested Cormorants at Rodeo Lagoon #MarinHeadlands #GGNRA enjoy perfect morning light that brings to life the zillion warm green shades of the water and surrounding landscape. Bonus fun reflection of a white building in the water. 🪶

Green was the forest drenched
with shadows
the roads were serpentine

The moon darkened at dawn
there was a breeze to
witness the hour

Portrait orientation photograph of a fog-covered oak woodland hillside. A diffuse sun glows softly through dense fog at the top of the frame. Dark, richly detailed oak trees fill the foreground, with ghostly silhouettes of trees dissolving into mist in the middle distance

The ornate Baroque interior of St. Peter's Church in Vienna, Austria, looking down the nave toward the gilded high altar. The vaulted ceiling is adorned with frescoes and gold stucco, flanked by elaborate side altars with gilded sculptures. Natural light streams through windows in the dome above. Several visitors stand in the pews below

Standing inside St. Peter's Church, Vienna — where Baroque architecture reaches its most breathtaking. Every inch is gilded, sculpted, and painted to perfection. 🏛️✨

Copper Harbor, Michigan

A leafless tree, branches dripping with moss, stands on an incline in a densely occupied forest. The sun filters through surrounding trees and alights on this particular tree casting a warm glow on the heavy moss. Blue sky peeks through the treetops. Background is blurry

in the chill of isolation
she will wrap her light around you
no words or explanation
no need or expectation
her warmth casts a remembrance
you are not alone

"Arizona Canel Sunrise"

An early morning walk along the Arizona Canel proved to be a nice opportunity for a sunrise with Camelback Mountain in the background. #Arizona #CamelbackMountain #Sunrise #Photography #EastCoastKin

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #MixedPairs and a different take on the theme. A solitary Great Crested Grebe amongst hundreds of Black-headed Gulls.

Photographed in south #Cheshire, England in the early 1990s on #Kodachrome.

Grasses grow on each side of a canal in the wetlands. In the foreground is a road and in the background is a row of bare trees.

“We are all wanderers on this earth. Our hearts are full of wonder, and our souls are deep with dreams”
-Romani Proverb

The earth seems richer on today's walk. It's as though touching the earth can erase all that is distressing, my gait slows and my eyes drift upward feeling no pressure from the entangled branches that dance above me. Weaving through the shadows anticipation grows as the sun beams warmly in the distance...feels like spring is close

grounding heavy thoughts
