This will be the only image of the Aurora that makes my website I think. I specifically planned with a group of friends to meet at this location with hopes of getting the best images we could locally. I definitely think I did well. Extremely pleased with the results!
If you saw my post with the stamp of the rock form known as “The Pants”, here is a photo of a Polar Bear dwarfed by it, seen through its legs. I had the wrong lens on and couldn’t get a photo of the entire formation and bear. #Nunavut#Arctic#LandscapePhotography#WildlifePhotography#PolarBear
The aurora put on quite a show Friday night! It was amazing to see the sky dancing with greens, purples, reds, and aqua lights! This is one of my favorites, taken at Flagstaff Lake in Eustis, Maine.
Morning Stumps - A couple of old logging remnants on the Brother's Creek Trail this morning. I was lucky enough that my catch-my-breath spot had this view, just as sunlight poured in from the side.
I love how the branch from the right frames the wildflowers blossoming in the sunshine as the dried needles on the forest floor contrast the green grass.
Devils Garden primitive loop trail at Arches National Park (Utah, USA) [1/3]
Probably the most challenging hike I’ve done with so much up and down and scrambling over and around rocky curves, but great to get away from crowds and out into the landscape.
Third photo is Landscape Arch. Fourth photo is Partition Arch.
Mount Hood looks stunning from up here on Table Mountain. I was informed by a frankly terrified-looking day hiker that black bears were seen up here last night. I’m proceeding with caution and will update you if I encounter them. 🐻🗻☀️
I’m really enjoying the views of Mount Adams. One of my goals this summer is to backpack near the volcano. I fell in love with it on the peak of Old Snowy. If you didn’t know it’s mid-May you would think it’s summer. I had a great time meeting and camping with @intrepidhero. We didn’t see the aurora per se but we saw a late night greenish sky. Felt lighter out.
I explored the unmaintained Two Chiefs Trail on the way out of the forest. Saw some unique views of Table Mountain from the south. Had to turn back at Greenleaf Creek because there was no way to cross without getting soaked. It was great to be back out exploring new areas along the PCT.
