It has been a while since I did my last #review of a #videogame , but I really enjoyed writing up my experience playing Terra Nil. It's a zen 'colony builder' with puzzle elements where you have to restore #nature .

It's a radically different take on many sim-type games, with strong #solarpunk vibes. It's relaxing, beautifully crafted and very wholesome to play, especially once you attract animals back to your ecosystem.

There's A Cottage By The Woods

While the rest of the north lands bathed in late spring sunshine the cottage in the woods remained beneath the frigid cloak of winter.

Wintry woodland scene. In the foreground, by the frosted hedgerow, is an open green wooden gate. In the distance, masked by trees, there is a white cottage.

Hey Mastodon let’s have a shot at this #introduction thing

My name is Dale, I’m a landscape #photographer from the East Coast of Australia

I mainly capture #nature & #landscape images from the Aussie Alps (yep it's a thing) & New Zealand - I love a good adventure & half the fun of what I do is working out how to get to & survive being in the middle of nowhere

Here are a few of my fav pics taken over the last couple of years...

Cheers!

an image taken from the middle of a New Zealand stream looking through rocks & trees towards a mountain in the distance with light shining through

An image of a sunset at a beach on a rocky outcrop full of orange starfish & large rocks leaning into the distance

a cold rocky image of the Australian Alps with icicles on the right hand side & hash light hitting a pointy rock on the background

an image of a mountain at sunrise with a series of roots in the foreground leading the eye through the frame

Stopped by to see an old friend in the forest today
#trees #nature #photography

An old tree with long twisted branches like a chalice reaches up to the sky, surrounded by many other trees. They all reach towards a hidden sun behind thick grey clouds.

Small green plants with one giant umbrella type leaf sprout one by one from the mulchy forest floor, marching up a hill, surrounded by leafless trees.

I was in the mood for some soft and dreamy pastel colors, so I painted this little pastel bird. Enjoy!

Pastel bird on a branch is an acrylic painting in portrait format hand-painted by the artist Karen Kaspar.
A small bird sits on a branch and looks to the left. The bird has plumage in delicate pastel shades of purple, pink and blue. The background is abstract and repeats the colors of the bird's feathers. The gentle hues create a serene and whimsical atmosphere.

A single sunflower with a bright yellow and orange blossom and green leaves stands against an abstracted background in shades of blue, purple and pink, perhaps the evening sky at sunset or the first light of early morning.

If you have any experience with fences, you know that they need constant upkeep: they sag, drag, lean, break, collapse.

And if you have any experience with rivers, you know that they last a lot longer than fences.

Green (with some Black)

#LeafScrolling #Nature #Photography

A vertical, close-up photograph capturing the detailed texture of a large green Hosta leaf.

The image is dominated by the leaf's parallel venation. Prominent, deeply grooved veins radiate upward and outward from a central midrib, creating a strong sense of symmetry and leading the eye vertically through the frame. Between these main veins, a delicate, web-like network of smaller secondary veins is visible.

The color palette is composed of rich, moody shades of deep forest green, olive, and near-black. The lighting is low-key and dramatic, coming primarily from above. This casts deep shadows within the grooves and valleys of the leaf, sharply accentuating its ribbed texture and giving the image a somber, organic, and mysterious atmosphere.

This is a black-and-white photograph of a dramatic alpine mountain landscape. In the foreground, you see a wide, open grassy meadow dotted with small wildflowers. A light-colored dirt path winds gently from the bottom left corner towards the right of the image. In the middle ground, a cluster of tall, dark evergreen trees stands on the left side. To the right, nestled at the edge of the meadow, are several buildings: a large, traditional chalet-style house with a dark roof and visible chimney, plus a smaller adjacent structure and an open-sided barn or shelter. A few vehicles, including what looks like a light-colored car or truck, are parked near the houses. Dominating the entire background is a massive, rugged mountain range. The peaks are sharp and rocky, with bright white patches of snow clinging to the ridges and crevices. Dark forested slopes covered in dense coniferous trees run down the mountainsides, and a few snow-filled gullies snake downward. A small, fluffy white cloud drifts near the left side of the mountain, partially hugging the rocky face. The sky above is clear and bright, giving the whole scene a calm, majestic, and slightly stark feeling because of the high-contrast black-and-white tones. The overall atmosphere feels peaceful, remote, and powerfully natural—like a quiet mountain farmstead at the foot of towering, snow-dusted peaks.

Are you in the mood for some cuteness?

Early morning rendezvous hand painted watercolor painting:
https://karen-kaspar.pixels.com/featured/early-morning-rendezvous-karen-kaspar.html

Early Morning Rendezvous is a watercolor painting in landscape format painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. Two sweet little birds sit opposite each other in a bush and look at each other. The dense branches of the bush form a heart shape around the two birds. The rest of the bush can only be seen blurred in the light blue morning mist. The two birds are depicted as silhouettes in front of the rising sun in a delicate pink heart shape and surrounded by green heart-shaped leaves.
This watercolour painting is the ideal gift for lovers - for Valentine's Day, a birthday, a wedding anniversary or just to say "I love you".

Stillness, light, and the quiet rhythm of water. This moody pelican piece feels like an exhale. https://1-lisas-baker.pixels.com/featured/moody-wildlife-pelican-lisa-s-baker.html

Moody Wildlife - Pelican by Lisa S Baker

A solitary pelican glides across still waters in this peaceful digital painting, bathed in soft twilight hues. Gentle ripples reflect the bird’s elegant form as golden light fades into moody blues. With its serene composition and painterly textures, this piece captures the quiet beauty of nature at day's end.

Howdy to Mastodon! I'm still wrapping my head around things here but figured I'd go ahead and do an #introduction.

I'm a #landscape and #nature #photographer based out of Fort Worth, #Texas which means, aside from my local park, I do a LOT of driving for #photography, especially to #utah and the desert southwest.

I produce my own #prints for sale, create educational and in-field videos for YouTube, and also offer workshops.

Learn more about me here: https://www.michaelrungphotography.com

Riverside Glow: Golden cottonwood trees wind into the distance along the Paria River under a pinkish sky at dusk in southern Utah.

Transcendent Glow: A photo of bare cottonwood trees glowing white against a rich orange backdrop of a canyon wall in southern Utah.

The Witch's Hand: A gnarled old oak tree covered in lichen set against a backdrop of rusty orange leaves at Eagle Mountain Park in north Texas.

Killarney Wanderings: The Torc River cascading over moss-covered boulders amidst lush green trees and blooming rhododendron in Killarney National Park, Ireland.
