Mammoth Hot Springs

This Golden-hued travertine terraces cascade with water, creating a stunning natural wonder. The formations are layered and appear to be alive with the flow of mineral-rich water.
This formation can be found in Yellowstone National Park just south of the Montana, Wyoming state line on highway 89.

It's not an easy landscape to negotiate; there is no path, the grass grows thick, and the sides of the bank are steep.

But it's not impossible to walk -- deer pass through here, and so can I.

And I do, because I want to spend time in this quiet, remote place, far from the noise that is all too present in our "modern" world.

It was an isolated area, not far from a crowded park. Everyone wanted to see the waterfall -- which was, indeed, well worth taking time to see -- but few wandered downstream, where the landscape was also worth seeing.

But when you're willing to be one of those few, you discover what the many never do.

He had been walking steadily, purposefully, intent upon getting a certain number of miles under his feet, exploring as much landscape as he could before he needed to turn back and reach camp before nightfall.

But then he stopped, just stopped, to immerse himself in fully looking at his surroundings.

The Queer Relationship That Powered Rachel Carson’s Nature Writing

Biologist Rachel Louise Carson (1907-1964) began her career with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service but achieved fame and social influence with publication of such popular books as The Sea Around Us (1951) and Silent Spring (1962).

Rachel Carson is shown in her mature years, likely in the late 1950s or early 1960s. She appears calm, focused, and introspective. Her hair is neatly set, and she wears modest professional attire.

Poppy Pod

#BloomScrolling #Nature #Photography

A top-down, view of a poppy seed pod. The pod is a soft, muted green, somewhat spherical but flattened at the top where the stigma disk is prominently featured.

The stigma disk is the most striking element, forming a star-like pattern with twelve radiating segments or rays. These segments are a warm golden-brown color, with darker, reddish-brown lines running down their centers, creating a strong contrast against the lighter parts.

The background is softly blurred, providing a shallow depth of field that keeps the focus entirely on the poppy pod. The colors in the background are mostly muted greens and browns.

May you find time today to be in a beautiful place, one in which you are undisturbed by surrounding noise, so that you can fully focus on what you see before you.

Because nature is timeless, and she has much to teach us, and she starts by arresting our attention, drawing it away from the distractions that do little but worry and harass us.

BADAB-E SURT - In this natural site, located in northern part of Iran in Mazandaran province, the stream of two different mineral springs have formed a natural stepped travertine terrace over thousands of years. What makes this natural phenomenon unique among the other similar places on earth is the reddish orange color of these terraces due to the existence of a large amount of iron carbonate in the water of one of the springs.

From a simple material, Kendra Haste brings us face-to-face with striking sculptures of wild animals. “I try to capture the living, breathing model in a static 3D form and convey its emotional essence without slipping into sentimentality or anthropomorphism," she says.
