A moody twilight scene of a low bridge stretching into calm, misty waters. A line of glowing street lamps creates warm orange reflections on the still surface, their light softening into halos through the fog. The atmospheric blue hour lighting and mirror-like reflections create a serene, almost dreamlike quality to this waterfront landscape.

Throwback Saturday Looking for a snap with a #glow theme for the #BlueSkyArtShow I thought of this bridge night shot from 2017 shot in SW Ireland. I can't remembr the exact location but I'm fairly sure it was in County Cork.

Original marshlands landscape oil painting by Tisha Mark, "Standing in a New Light" 20"x20" oil on linen (2024). Landscape painting featuring an orange-toned sky with atmospheric cloud formations appearing to rise up from the first light of day over a coastal marsh. Subtle light and color from the sky reflects in the water, and plays off the textured marsh grasses.

A pier provides angles and framing for boats and another broken down pier with a golden sunset backdrop.

So excited for this week’s #BlueSkyArtShow with the theme of #glow! These are from Smith Island, a small inhabited island in the Chesapeake Bay. There are only about 200 residents on the island, but they’re pure gold!

Original seascape oil painting by Tisha Mark, "Lighting the Dark" 20"x20" oil on linen (2025). This moody, abstract-leaning seascape painting has a textured, orange-toned, atmospheric sky with textured colors of light on the horizon. Light from the sky reflects in the water below as it meets a dark, rocky, tree-lined coast.

One more for today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme #glow

This is the first completed piece in a new series that I'm painting. I'll be releasing new work from this series around the 2025 winter solstice.

For today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #glow. It was right at sunrise on Bow Lake in the Canadian Rockies. Crowfoot Mountain is a stunning subject no matter the time of day, but it stole my heart in the early morning hours. #photography #landscape #EastCoastKin #Canada #Alberta #banffnationalpark

A spider web shimmers in the morning light, each delicate strand adorned with tiny raindrops that glow like golden beads. The intricate pattern evokes a sense of quiet splendor, with the droplets forming luminous chains along the web’s curves and angles. Bathed in warm, shadowy light, the scene feels both enchanted and unsettling, as if the web is waiting for something in the hush. The sparkling focus and rich, layered brilliance lend a touch of spooky elegance, transforming simple grass and silk into a moment of atmospheric mystery. It’s like a natural chandelier, where every bead of dew catches the light and casts a mesmerizing glow

Natural chandelier
Have a great weekend everyone.

I suppose this can fit today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme of #glow. It's an #infrared image made at #720nm at a local beach. This is a salt marsh area just beside the beach. I love the winding waters. #photography #landscapephotography #EastCoastKin #fullspectrum

My favorite kind of glow... #BlueSkyArtShow #Glow #Photography

The focus is on a single, fully opened flower, illuminated from the side by the sun. The flower is in vibrant yellow and orange tones, glowing intensely due to the light. The fine, densely arranged petals cast shadows on each other. The background is deep black, which further accentuates the bright colors of the flower.

A long hair calico cat is lying in the sun next to the window. The sunlight is shining through her hair, creating a glow. She looks a little pensive, but comfortable.

October eve brings sky of pale blue lit with goldening clouds lit with deepening orange purple horizon behind silhouette loblollies where an eagle’s nest is newly empty awaiting again and ripples catch that golden shimmer and shadow reflection and grasses and ripples embroider it all, all the echoes of light of the call of herons and here and there a tern that came from so far to rest here, here
