Beaked hazelnut (Corylus cornuta)

#macro #flowers #bloomscrolling #photography

Macro photograph of the tiny red female flower of the beaked hazel, beginning to open onto its light green bud-like base, on a brown branch in the background. The flower looks like an anemone on the bottom of the sea, with red tentacles reaching upwards.

Photographie macro de la toute petite fleur femelle rouge du noisetier à long bec, commençant à s'ouvrir sur sa base en forme de bourgeon vert clair, sur une branche brune en arrière-plan. La fleur ressemble à une anémone au fond de la mer, avec des tentacules rouges allant vers le haut.

Digging into & hiding nuts in my poinsettia pot when there’s an entire belt of land & trees behind our property in which to stash their stuff. Why.

Drops of beauty II/III. April 2026.

#macro #mosstodon #photography

Macro photograph of around ten drops of water clinging to the red and orange sporophytes of green moss. Some are in focus, others are out of focus. Each drop reflects or seems to contain the image of a nearby tree with black branches and trunk.

After sunset

A sunset over a lake that is red, yellow, and orange at the horizon with light blue and purple up top. Wispy threads of dark cloud strands stand out against the color. It is all reflected in the water surface.

Somewhere, outdoors.

#photography #NatureyCrap

A tangle of willow branches hangs down from a tree in Golden Gate Park. If you look closely at this hairball, on the left there is the outline of an angry old woman, staring, probably casting a curse on the neighbor's kids.

I'm one with that woman.

Black and white photograph of a spruce forest in winter, with the ground covered in white snow. The bright sun is visible behind the trees and casts the shadows of the long, straight trunks onto the snow towards the front and bottom of the photo.

A black and white macro photograph with a touch of sepia, depicting a small, slightly wispy feather that has fallen onto ice. The ice is black with air bubbles at the top of the image, and white with holes at the bottom. Spruce needles are also trapped in the ice.

The throbbing Saturday evening life of the mighty metropolis! Sure I saw at least 5 or 6 people... Very different to being back in the city!

Gorgeous last hour of sunlight, though. Another wee walk with dad since the evening light was so nice.

Today is the dogs’ favorite day of the year where they go to a fun event and chase a lure (plastic grocery bag) for a 100 yard dash. Here is Brook sliding through the mud at the end. Happy, muddy dogs. #photography #dogs #DogsOfMastodon #mud

Brook catch the lure at 25 MPH, with her ears flapping straight up

👻Ghost In The Machine. Despite being abandoned for nearly a decade, this old power plant control room in France was anything but silent.

A persistent, ominous humming still filled the air. A modern router blinked with green lights, sending data to unknown locations from this dead, decaying site.

An early April view of the beautiful Colvin Covered Bridge, crossing Shawnee Creek, and looking back toward the township of Schellsburg, Pennsylvania. With the hint of texture and a few other artistic treatments, I've tried to portray what the citizens of the area might have viewed on the day the bridge was completed in 1894. The bridge itself is owned and maintained by the county and is still used for light, local traffic ... and ... fishing!

April 1st really does make you feel like the butt-end of a joke...

When I was in #Africa, what started as a joke ended up making a goofy series images. I named them "The South End of Africa". A play on the fact that I was in #SouthAfrica as well and well. Butts.

Enjoy two of the entries I made.
