An early spring mountain landscape with a large larch tree in the foreground and a stone hut in the background. The scarcity of surrounding trees indicates that the location is the maximum altitude above which they no longer grow.

Closeup of a purple passion flower. The flower has multiple layers. Working from bottom to top, The bottom most layer consists of purple petals and purple sepals which look similar, but the sepals have a more rounded tip while the petals have a sharper tip. There are five petals and five sepals which alternate (petal, sepal, petal, sepal, etc). The next layer is the corona which contains thin, squiggly radial filaments, also purple that go from a dark purple in the center of the flower to pale purple at the end of the filaments. Out of the center of the flower rises the ovary from which five pale yellow anthers that look like narrow coffee beans grow. On top of that layer are three stigmas, a pale blend of pale yellow and lavender. There is one unopened passion flower at the top of the image. The background are green leaves.

An Oregon Fawn lily along the walk today. The white petals are curled up, leaving the yellow center parts hanging down from a single stem that is difficult to see amongst grass and branches behind it ☮️

A path through the forest of Dean captured in black and white. The path is muddy and wet, glistening under the dappled light of the sun.
Follow the path.
And when you reach the end, have a good night. 😉

The morning mist hovers over the silhouetted vista as the distant mountains are woken by pre daybreak light. The waterway is calm as it holds the reflection while edged with auburn grasses.
The morning arrived 📷🕊️ …

Estany d'Ivars i Vilasana a l'alba. Un ocell persistentment rau sobre una branca que emergeix de l'aigua. L'he retratat cent cops. Sembla que esperi la meva visita.

A macro photo of a Liverleaf flower that is more pink or purple than the usual blue.
It's officially spring here when the "blue-veis" (Liverleaf) and the "white-veis" (Wood anemone) cover the woods. Usually they are blue and white, but sometimes they are more purple or pink.

A bluebell inflorescence with 3 bluish purple bell flowers and some buds at the tip. The plant is growing close to a bearded iris cluster with bright green strappy leaves in my garden.

Anyway a little lone bluebell that appeared near my irises is blooming.
A nice surprise ! 💙🪻💙

Good morning, Bluesky. 🌞
I was taking a photo of the sunrise on Malapascua Island, in the Philippines. I turned around, and the sun, low on the horizon, created a rainbow. I included the old wreck.

A broad, still expanse of water fills the foreground, so clear that the lakebed—small rounded stones in muted grays and browns—shows through beneath a thin veil of reflected sky. The surface is nearly motionless, acting as a mirror for the dawn above. At the horizon, the lake narrows into a distant valley framed by layered mountain ridges. The mountains rise on both sides in dark, cool silhouettes—deep blue to charcoal—softened by early light and atmospheric haze. On the left, a dense forest of conifers forms a continuous, shadowed edge that slopes gently into the water; on the right, the mountain face is steeper, its contours more pronounced but still subdued in the low light. The sky is the focal point. A scattered field of mid-level clouds stretches across it, each cloud catching the first light of sunrise. Colors transition from pale gold and peach near the horizon to cooler blues and soft grays higher up. The brightest band sits just above the distant valley, where the sun—still hidden—pushes a warm glow outward, illuminating the undersides of the clouds. This light is duplicated almost perfectly in the lake’s reflection, forming a symmetrical composition: sky above, sky below, divided by a thin, horizontal line of brighter water near the center. The reflection is slightly softened by faint ripples, but remains remarkably crisp.

Sunrise Glacier National Park
Close-up of a Song Thrush, a member of the Turdidae, perched among leafy branches and red stems dotted with small dark berries. The bird faces right, its warm brown upperparts glowing in sunlight, while its creamy chest is boldly marked with dark, arrow-shaped spots. A sharp eye and fine, slightly speckled bill are in crisp focus, with a softly blurred blue-and-green background giving a calm, garden feel.
Good afternoon folks.
My cohost Rob @robcrank68.bsky.social has said
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #ComeEatWithMe, birds who have food in their beaks. The Alt Theme is #Turdidae, any of the bird species in this group. Hmmm, I’m going with a Song Thrush for the alt.

Thank you so much! Happy new week, Jules😊🙏💜☕
A gosling eating bread stopped as I sat down to capture this image. Looking direct at the camera and as if it knew the theme for today!
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme, #ComeEatWithMe, birds who have food in their beaks.
Oh, if you feed water fowl bread, it really is time to stop as it is not good for their diet. Honest!
