Truckee, California, Donner Pass (Sierra) railroad snowsheds.

A black and white portrait photo of a large tunnel that turns to the left. The far half is rectangular. The near portion has a vertical wall with slit windows on the right. On the left it is steeply sloped smooth rocks. The floors is shinny with ice. The entire length of the rook has black stains and white stripes from light pouring through the windows creating a zebra effect.

I love the curves and undulations of this nearby hillside.

A bright green grass field in a long focus shot. The land is undulating and slopes down to the right. A stand of poplar trees on a ridge casts long diagonal shadows across the field. Behind the field a dark woodland punctuated by the occasional flowering tree.

Calochortus Aureus (Golden Mariposa Lily).

A color photo of a single bright yellow flower. The three large pedals form a cup. Inside is a dark red scroll design deep inside near the base of the flower. There's six of seven bright yellow stamens. A bare dark green stem is seen below the flower. The soil is out of focus, lumpy, and a brown-red color.

Last night I had to take a picture of the waxing moon before going to bed.

Neighbourhood watch

The image is a black and white photograph of a tuxedo cat sitting on a paved surface. The cat has a striking pattern of black and white fur, with a mostly black face except for a white patch on its muzzle and a small dark marking near its nose. Its expression is calm yet somewhat serious, and its gaze is directed toward the camera or slightly past it. The cat's tail is stretched out along the ground.

The background features a wooden fence with vertical and horizontal beams, creating an interesting pattern of light and shadow. Some foliage is visible behind the fence, adding depth to the scene. The overall monochrome aesthetic emphasizes the contrast between the cat’s fur and the textures of the environment, giving the image a classic and timeless feel.

This from a couple of weeks ago of an early violet back-lit by the morning sun.

I’m trying to spend more time shooting portraits. I’ve always loved telling stories, but dysphoria manifested in me not feeling comfortable showing up as an artist. I shot street for a long time because I didn’t have to talk to people. Now I can. @MxSadie and I did a recent shoot which is (gasp) under lights! Like they use in #vogue #HarpersBazaar and all the other magazines I used to read but also I can’t do that because <unexplained loud cognitive dissonance>. I can now, hell yea. #darktable

Sneeze... I mean, snot... I mean, #Springtime is upon us

The image features a close-up view of a branch adorned with white flowers, likely cherry blossoms, set against a clear blue sky. The flowers are in full bloom, showcasing delicate white petals with yellow stamens and a hint of green at the center. The branch is slender and brown, with a few budding leaves visible, indicating early spring. The background is softly blurred, emphasizing the flowers in the foreground. The lighting is bright and natural, suggesting a sunny day. The overall composition highlights the beauty and detail of the blossoms, capturing the essence of springtime.

The image depicts a rustic stone wall in the foreground, composed of irregularly shaped, gray stones with a rough texture, some covered in patches of moss. The wall is uneven, with stones of various sizes and shapes stacked haphazardly. In the background, a lush green field stretches out, dotted with low-lying vegetation and trees, under a cloudy sky. The scene is tranquil, with the stone wall framing the view of the natural landscape behind it.

The image depicts a solitary tree with a gnarled, leafless trunk and branches, standing prominently in the foreground. The tree's bark is rough and textured, with patches of moss, indicating age and resilience. Its branches extend outward, some bare and others with sparse foliage, suggesting it may be in a dormant state, possibly during late autumn or winter. The tree is situated on a grassy area, with a low stone wall made of irregularly shaped stones, partially covered in moss, running parallel to the tree. The grass is lush and green, dotted with small white flowers, and the ground is scattered with rocks. In the background, a gentle slope rises, covered with more greenery and a few distant trees, under a cloudy sky. The overall scene conveys a sense of tranquility and natural beauty.

Possibly the last time I will be able to get a snap of Brent Geese before they migrate North to breed. South Walney, high tide today.

Brent Geese on a blue sea. A dainty Goose with black head and neck, a brown back, barred sides and black wingtips folded over a white rump. The bird in the foreground stands out against others of the flock in the background.

Welp, it is not a pink elephant, but a blue elephant in a pink turban and, apparently, with two arms.

Update: This is Ganesha, a Hindu deity, who is "readily identified by his elephant head & four arms." Via Wikipedia, Ganesha is the remover of obstacles & bringer of good luck & the patron of arts, sciences, intellect, letters, learning, & wisdom.

HT to @srfirehorseart & @shom for the info.
