The 98% Waxing Gibbous moon is setting in the early morning light, the tall buildings of downtown Seattle are to the right of the frame and a hilly, evergreen-covered residential neighborhood is in the foreground. The moon has some orange glow, close to the horizon, with some cloud cover.

Went out to feed the birds this a.m. & saw something "mounted" to a back porch support beam. Closer inspection revealed it was a very large #moth. My ID app suggests Polyphemus moth (Antheraea polyphemus) with an average wingspan of 6". It was just chilling during the a.m. storms. I hoped it would open up but it just stayed motionless. It was quite dark so the pics aren't the best. Antennae are very cool!

Pacific Crest Trail: Part 1

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. 🐻🗻☀️

A beautiful snow-covered Mount Hood rises above the Central Cascades mountain range. The volcano has sunlight shining on the snow from the east (left) side. Blue sky on an amazing spring day. Vast green forests are seen before the peak.

PBN #76 - Dressage Day, Silhouettes, and Ladybugs!

I’m an instructor of beginner photographers. On Sunday, I send an email with tips, tricks, articles, pictures, etc. Info I think students can use. It’s for “regular” camera users and those who shoot with smartphones.

There’s mention of things to do where I am but it’s mostly for beginning #photography students to help them take better photos - NOT for advanced shooters. 😃

Hey friends! We just came back from a great hike near #garmischpartenkirchen. We wanted to do this mountain recently but the snow in the upper part was too risky for us.

Today we went there again. Beautiful ascent, nice views. Some spray rain and a slippery, dirty descent. But at the end we even had some sun!

Now we feel tired and a bit sore 😉

Blue Dasher #dragonfly on a Red Yucca flower spike in our front #garden yesterday evening. Last year dragonfly sightings/photo ops at the house were very few and far between so I’m hoping this is a sign of better luck this year.

silent stairs

#Photography #BlackAndWhite #BlackAndWhitePhotography #Monochrome #minimalism #SilentSunday

This image captures an architectural detail in black and white, focusing on a set of concrete stairs ascending diagonally across the frame. The stairs are bordered by thick, smooth concrete walls with angular, clean lines that emphasize a modernist aesthetic. A handrail runs alongside the stairs, enhancing the linear perspective. The background shows a flat, overcast sky which provides a neutral backdrop that complements the stark geometry of the structure. The composition highlights the interplay of light and shadow on the surfaces, giving a sense of depth and solidity to the concrete elements.
