A wide-angle scene from Lofoten, where the winter light worked its magic. The reflection, the snow-covered edges, and the towering peak all came together in a way that made this composition feel nice! #landscape

The jagged ridges of one of the most iconic peaks in the O-Fjord of Greenland's Scoresby Sund appear from behind clearing clouds. The O-Fjord is one of our planet's most spectacular natural treasures!⁠ #bluesky #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #naturephotography #travel #nature #scape

Each spring, I embark on a journey through Norway's western highlands to capture the majestic waterfalls in their full, snowmelt-fed glory. The following images are a testament to these trips. One of the images showcases the morning sun illuminating the snow-capped peaks. #nature #spring #norway

Pikes Peak, it was known as Tavá Kaa-vi — the Sun Mountain. The mountain was named such by the indigenous Nuche tribe, a Numic-speaking people (Uto-Aztecan) known today as the Ute. It is the first Colorado 14er to have the sun hit its peak at dawn. #ClassicMono #EastCoastKin #MountainMonday #ir

Here are 2 haiku for today's #monochrome theme on #BlueSkyArtShow. These both are depictions of the same pine tree by our house. In the twilight fog only the pine tree is here leaning on the fence *** The moon pauses between roof and pine tree. Nights are long now. Poems (C) A Christine Myers

This is a photo I took a few years ago of a White-throated Sparrow in the snow at my house. I couldn't believe what I was seeing as I was taking this shot. #birds #snowflake #nature

In Greenland's amazing Scoresby Sund, a lone iceberg is dwarfed by the slanting ridges of a towering mountain, themselves intriguingly reflected at water's edge. An optical effect I have not seen before! #bluesky #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #naturephotography #travel #nature

The dusk of desert midnight glows; the sentry breeze still ebbs and flows. What comes tomorrow? No one knows. So stop and watch the night awhile; the stars swerve round you, mile by mile, and half a moon is one whole smile... (Click link for rest of poem) #poetry open.substack.com/pub/achristi...

OH, I wish I had a Valentine. A hand to hold, a heart like mine. A laugh to share, a love so bright, A whispered wish on stars tonight. But love will come; I'll wait and see. For someone’s searching, just like me. And when we meet, the world will shine. We will no longer be seeking a Valentine.

The opening of wildflower season here is the arrival of brittlebrush blooms (Encelia farinosa). We've had enough warm weather already to bring them out in all their yellow brilliance. #lowkey #wildflowers #Sonorandesert #photography #wildflowerphotography #g+circle #eastcoastkin
