Birds in a Winter Forest is a handmade paper collage by artist Karen Kaspar.
In a snowy winter landscape in soft blue tones, three bright red birds sit on bare branches of tall, slender tree trunks that stand out in dark brown against the light winter background. Large white snowflakes are falling.
The tree trunks and branches were painted on paper with acrylic paint and then mounted as a collage on the watercolor background and combined with the watercolor birds.
The winter picture is minimalist and conveys a calm and peaceful atmosphere.

Birds in a spring forest is a handmade paper collage in portrait format by artist Karen Kaspar.
The picture shows three red birds sitting on slender branches of tall, slender trees. The tree trunks in dark brown tones stand out against the background in bright lime green colors. The first fresh light green leaves sprout from the branches.
The tree trunks and branches were painted on paper with acrylic paint and then mounted as a collage on the background painted with watercolors and combined with the watercolor birds.
The spring picture is minimalist and conveys a calm, relaxed and peaceful mood. The scene has a charming and whimsical feel with a simple composition.
The picture is part of my mini-series of four collages, each showing three red birds in the forest in the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter.

A beautiful tree-lined path, creating a natural tunnel effect. The ground is covered with a thick carpet of fallen, reddish-brown leaves, leading the eye into the distance.

Far down the path, near the vanishing point, a few small figures are walking, which provides a sense of scale and adds a human element to the vast natural setting.

I hiked a large sand dune for the first time yesterday. What a unique experience! Quite a slog, hiking straight up the side to reach the ridge. A surprise with the challenge of walking the ridge— didn’t expect it to be so sharp. The drop-off on each side looked steeper/scarier than it actually was. A fun time! Bruneau Sand Dunes (Idaho)— 470 feet (143m) base-to-peak elevation change. #MountainMonday #hiking #nature

This is the kind of summer where I feel like I’m constantly looking down to see the massive variety of shapes and colors of the fungi that is popping up.

Violet Cort [Cortinarius iodes]

#Mushrooms #Mushtodon #Fungi #Pilze #Nature #NewEngland

A mushroom about three inches tall grows from leaf litter on the forest floor. It is a classic umbrella shape mushroom with a small purple and tan on its cap. The rest of the cap is a soft lavender. It is perfectly round. The stem is harder to see but shares the same colors as the stem.

My latest piece captures the warm glow of northern New Mexico—the same land that inspired Georgia O’Keeffe. Sunlight washes across red mesas and golden cliffs beneath a sky of soft desert hues. A perfect reminder of the beauty and serenity of the Southwest. Available as fine art wall décor on paper, canvas, or metal.

Along the quiet coast of Vietnam, this pearl farm feels timeless — calm water, bare trees, and a few fishing boats resting in the distance. The soft morning light and purple blooms at the shore bring a gentle contrast to the stillness, a reminder of the beauty that exists in simple, working landscapes.

I’ve taken many shots like this, every year, with the same subject and in the same place. Yet I’m still fascinated by this perspective.
This one is from just a few hours ago: the sunset and the "fragile" flower. A breath of wind will be enough, and the flower, as we see it, will vanish. Yet it will be everywhere, spreading itself across the world.
There it stands, swaying in the gentle air and the soft warmth of a November sunset, defying whatever happens around it.

No yesterday, no tomorrow - just here, now, basking in this poetic light.

And life, silently, flows on.

American author, illustrator, and educator Anna Botsford Comstock died #OTD in 1930.

The first female professor at Cornell University, her over 900-page work, The Handbook of Nature Study (1911), is now in its 24th edition. Comstock was an American artist and wood engraver known for illustrating entomological text books with her husband, John Henry Comstock including their first joint effort, The Manual for the Study of Insects (1885).

Anna Botsford Comstock, ca. 1900, Nature Study Portrait.

Unknown author - John Henry and Anna Botsford Comstock papers, 1833-1955, 1874-1931, Division of Rare and Manuscript Collections, Cornell University Library

Anna is seated in a composed and introspective pose, her gaze directed slightly off to the side, suggesting contemplation. Her expression is calm and serene, conveying a sense of wisdom and quiet strength.

She is dressed in the fashion typical of the early 20th century, wearing a high-necked, long-sleeved blouse or dress, likely made of a dark, modest fabric.

Saying goodbye to comet A6 Lemmon. It's getting very low, and clouds are increasing in southern New Mexico.

It was a remarkable run of many clear nights.

This is a single exposure on a fixed tripod.

There's a blurred silhouette of a power line, and satellite trails in this image. They belong in the frame because this is the world we have created. It's getting increasingly difficult to escape to pristine nature.

Perhaps the phrase 'pristine nature' is now an oxymoron?

When is the first No Kings General Strike?

We all need to help with community building and boosting civic engagement. These activities have atrophied for decades, and it shows.

The comet is sporting a whitish dust tail in this evening twilight image. The blue ion tail does not show because this is a single, short exposure and the lingering blue of twilight overwhelms the ion tail.

The brightest star near the comet is η Ophiuchi, also known as Sabik.

A few cirrus clouds are in the starry twilight sky, but they don't mask the comet or its tail.

This image captures the delicate Apache Plume (Fallugia paradoxa) in bloom, found in New Mexico. The pink, feathery plumes glow softly against the vibrant green leaves, highlighting the fragile beauty of this desert shrub. The blurred background accentuates its intricate details, showcasing nature's elegance in arid landscapes.

This image features the Apache Plume, a desert shrub native to New Mexico. The plant has delicate flowers with soft, feathery plumes that feel like fine, wispy threads between your fingers. These plumes are light and airy, with a gentle pink hue that would evoke a sense of lightness and fragility. The leaves are small and slightly rough, providing a contrasting texture to the silky plumes. The overall impression is one of a light, delicate touch, like the brush of a feather in a gentle breeze, embodying the subtle beauty found in arid landscapes.

“…But green's the color of Spring.
And green can be cool and friendly-like.
And green can be big like an ocean, or important like a mountain, or tall like a tree.
When green is all there is to be.
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why?
Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine, it's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be.”
- Kermit (lyrics from It’s Not Easy Being Green)
