the Goodpasture Covered Bridge was built in 1938 and was named for Benjamin Franklin Goodpasture, a pioneer farmer in the area. the bridge spans the McKenzie River. the road through the bridge has white fencing on each side. In the distance are tall pine trees

Country roads are the best; especially if they go through a covered bridge. The Goodpasture Covered Bridge, the second longest covered bridge in Oregon.

Two moose resting in deep snow, one adult in the foreground with its head turned left, and a younger moose behind it facing the camera, their muzzles dusted with snow, surrounded by leafless shrubs and evergreen branches in a quiet winter landscape.

A peaceful Christmas morning 2003 with these beautiful creatures in Rocky Mtn. National Park. It was one of my first digital photos. When I later saw the shadow detail, I knew digital was the way. Canon 10D (6.3mp sensor!).

White paper parasols are open and standing at different angles. The photo is shot from a low angle, so the sun is backlighting the parasols, while some parasols cast shadows on others. The sky is about a 50% gray, the parasols are close to white, and the wood structure of the umbrellas is black.

A photo of a portrait-format mixed-media painting on black paper, placed on a wooden table and surrounded by leaves and dried plants for decoration. The painting shows a magic potion bottle containing a toxic green liquid. Branches with a few leaves wrap around the bottle and three tiny glowing blue mushrooms grow out of the cork.

A painting of a black cat.

This is my cat Bebe (pronounced Bay-bay). Her portrait was painted with acrylics on an 11x14 inch canvas and finished last night.

Lightning strikes beyond canyon rimed with red and white desert cliffs and hoodos under dark storm clouds at sunset.

Near sunset, my wife and I sat at the canyon rim, as a storm rolled past the opening dropping a few bolts. Just the two of us and a Subway sandwich. 😁 Amazing how small things anchor big memories.

Dramatic, rugged, red granite rise vertically from the ruffled blue waters of Brae Wick. In the foreground the shingle of Braewick Beach runs across the bottom of the shot. In the distance the wind turbines of the controversial Viking Windfarm stick up above the horizon into a cloudy sky.

Ein Fuchs mit Schal und einer Tasse Tee genießt den Herbst. Fallende Blätter schwirren umher.

Cozy ins Wochenende.

Naja ist oft Coping mit eben jenen Entwicklungen. Finde da auch nicht alles gelungen, in dem Fall ist es halt auch so, dass Screenreader das nicht wiedergeben können und Sehbehinderte wieder mal nicht mitgedacht werden.

Das ist ein "Witz", ursprünglich glaub ich auf Twitter? entstanden wobei ich mir da nicht sicher bin ob solche Meldungen nicht wirklich von der Plattform selbst eingeblendet wurden.

Good to know, thanks!

Watercolor and colored pencil drawing of a male green woodpecker. He clings vertically to a tree trunk, looking amiably to the left. The sunlight makes his feathers glow. The background is blurred with sunspots in the bushes.
