A landscape with bright yellow flowers everywhere in the foreground on a descending slope. Above them are more distant areas of broad green grassy meadows on stepped terrain of balsalt cliffs descending from high plateau to the left, to a rugged canyon on the right. Some areas are lightly forested with tall conifers, and some oaks. Beyond the plateaus and cliffs is a ribbon of blue water from one side of the image to the other. That is the Columbia River between Oregon State and Washington State in the Pacific Northwest of the US. The foreground is all in Oregon. The opposite river bank is Washington State with similar basalt cliffs green grassy meadows and scattered forest. Above them stand low rolling mountainsides and shallow valleys full of denser forests of tall conifers. Beyond the lower mountains stands a high snow covered mountain peak called Mount Adams (known by the native first peoples as Klickitat, and Phato). Above, the sky is covered with diffuse clouds.

Hey! I'm back to posting the photos!

The image depicts a serene mountainous landscape with a small stone house nestled in a grassy valley. In the foreground, large boulders are scattered across the green grass, with a few trees displaying autumn foliage in shades of orange and yellow. The stone house, with its dark roof and wooden windows, is situated on the right side of the image, surrounded by a few smaller structures. The background features towering, rugged mountains with steep, rocky faces, partially covered by trees that exhibit the vibrant colors of fall. The sky is partly cloudy, with sunlight illuminating the mountains and casting shadows, enhancing the depth and texture of the scene.

A massive rock tower rises abruptly from the landscape, dominating nearly the entire frame. This is Devils Tower National Monument, seen from below so that it appears steep, vertical, and imposing. The formation is shaped like a broad, flat-topped column with slightly rounded sides. Its surface is marked by long, straight vertical grooves running from base to summit. These lines resemble enormous fluted columns or frozen drips of stone, emphasizing the tower’s height and giving it a ribbed texture. The rock is light gray in this monochrome image, with darker streaks highlighting cracks and weathered sections. At the base of the tower, a band of conifer trees wraps around the formation. The trees look small compared to the rock, emphasizing the scale. They cling to ledges and the lower slopes, their pointed tops forming a dark, uneven line between the tower and the ground. In the foreground, the terrain is covered with a wide field of broken boulders and rocks of various sizes. The stones appear angular and scattered, forming a rough, uneven surface that slopes gently upward toward the tower. A few small pine trees and shrubs grow among the rocks, their trunks thin and their branches sparse. On the right edge of the image, a tall, bare tree trunk rises vertically with no leaves, its branches jagged and skeletal. On the left edge, partial silhouettes of other trees frame the scene, creating a natural border around the tower. The sky above is pale and blank, with no visible clouds, which makes the tower’s outline stand out sharply. The overall impression is one of scale and solidity — a solitary, monumental rock rising straight upward from a rugged field of stone, surrounded by scattered forest.

Watercolor sketch of a full moon rising over a mountain forest, done primarily with a single pigment: Kuretake granular cosmic blue Watercolor on cotton 4x4 1/2 “

Testing the most recent set of Kuretake granulating watercolor, I was immediately drawn to the Cosmic Blue
These pigments can be a little tricky to work with, prone to blooms, but they lift & blend fairly easy with a damp brush

A high-angle, wide panoramic photograph shows a snow-covered mountain village nestled in a valley beneath towering, rugged peaks under a bright blue sky with wispy clouds. The foreground consists of a snow-dusted slope leading down toward the cluster of alpine buildings, which feature dark wooden roofs and white or light-colored facades. To the left, a massive, jagged mountain rises steeply, its rocky face partially covered in snow. In the center, another prominent, sunlit peak dominates the horizon. Dense evergreen forests line the lower slopes of the mountains, and thin ski lift lines are visible stretching across the landscape. The overall scene is bright, crisp, and emblematic of a winter resort in the Alps.

A mountain meets a lake with turquoise water right at the base and darker, clear water in the foreground. You can see rocks at the bottom. The sun is shining right above the peak on the right, but it's out of frame. The sky is blue with no could.
