Mostly here to share my photos and see others' work. I tossed social media about 10 years ago, but giving Bluesky a go. Seems great. All photographs are mine except for the reposts. Thanks for looking!

A mallard duck minding her own business. There are many details within nature to stun such as the geometrical patterns of layered feathers. And with the bright sun and clear blue skies, off to find spring. Have fun! #Stunday #UKbirding #WildlifePhotography #PhotoHour #EastCoastKin #photography

I love this picture. In 1996, my amazing wife took this photo of the Glacière Metro in Paris. ❤️ #photography #trains #paris

The Zuni Pine Barrens is a fire-dependent ecosystem, home to longleaf pines and many rare plants. Just read that plans are underway to reclassify the red-cockaded woodpecker, which lives here, from endangered to threatened. Pixie-moss blooms in April. 📸 #photography #NaturePhotography #zuni

Zuni stealth sparrows. Do you think birds know when we are watching them vs. when we are simply around? I suspect so. #Birds #photography #birdphotography #NaturePhotography #sparrow

A lichen I still need to identify. If you know, please share a comment. Found this on the banks of the Blackwater River, south of Zuni. #photography #NaturePhotography #lichen

My day began in Wakefield, Virginia. Standing on the tracks looking east. It looks promising way down there doesn't it? #photography #virginia #wakefield

I'm in a dystopian mood on this #scape day. This long exposure infrared image was made down on the coast in Alligator Point in the Florida Panhandle. I'm not sure what else to say about it. #photography #landscapephotography #longexposure #ir #infrared #infraredphotography #EastCoastKin

…tranquility… A favorite shot from several years ago. #photography
