Zwei Schwäne schwimmen in einem See direkt vor einer Mauer hinter der der Fotograf des Fotos steht. Im Wesentlichen ragen nur die Hälse der Tiere über den Mauerrand. Die Schwänen sehen beide den dicken alten Mann mit der Kamera leicht verwirrt an.

I have been looking for #Autumn and I think I have found her. She is a bit shy at the moment though.

A foggy landscape, a forest with tall pines disappearing in the mist, but you can already see the autumn colours on the meadow, lit by a little piercing light.

This Sandhill Crane, with its distinctive red crown, gracefully preens its soft, silver-gray feathers against the warm backdrop of golden grasses. The bird's focused pose highlights the intricate details of its plumage.

A Sandhill Crane is captured in a moment of calm, preening its feathers. The bird's body is covered in soft, smooth, silvery-gray feathers, while its head is crowned with a vivid red patch, which stands out in contrast. The crane's long neck is gently curved as it tends to its feathers, and the bird's sleek form is nestled against a backdrop of golden, dried grasses, evoking the warmth of a sunlit day. The overall feeling of the scene is one of quiet concentration and natural beauty.

The riverside comes alive with colorful lanterns reflecting on the water, as boats glide along under a softly fading sky. The warm glow of lights from Hoi An’s buildings adds a magical touch to this peaceful evening scene.

#art #vietnam #water #evening #hoian #travel #photography #fineartphotography #wallart #river #historic #buyintoart #giftideas #ancient #fedigiftshop #mastoart #asia #photo

This image captures an evening scene along the Hoi An River in Vietnam. In the foreground, traditional wooden boats float on the calm water, each boat decorated with colorful paper lanterns that softly glow. The lanterns cast reflections on the water's surface, creating a shimmering, multicolored effect. Along the riverbank, there are rows of low, old-fashioned buildings with dark roofs, lit warmly from within, and more lanterns hang outside. The scene is busy with people, both on the boats and along the riverbank, enjoying the evening. Above, the sky is transitioning from light blue to soft purple as dusk falls, giving the scene a peaceful, almost dreamlike quality. The river and lanterns together evoke a sense of calm and festivity.

We just took a little overnight trip through the spectacular colors of Autumn here in New Mexico a couple of days ago. Here is a tiny taste of what I will share ahead although not taken in NM, rather Utah for the taste. The most beautiful Fall colors I thinik I have ever seen here in NM.

The image captures a serene autumn scene along a forest path lined with tall aspen trees. The trees are dressed in golden-yellow leaves, creating a canopy that fills the sky with brilliant color. The forest floor and the path are covered with fallen leaves, forming a golden carpet that adds texture to the ground. The bark of the aspen trees is pale with dark markings, giving each trunk a unique, almost textured appearance. The sky peeks through the trees in shades of blue, contrasting with the vibrant yellows. The scene feels tranquil and warm, evoking the quiet beauty of a sun-drenched autumn afternoon in nature. The path seems inviting, as if leading deeper into the colorful grove.
