A carnation in sharp texture and light focus overlapping others crowded in a bunch. In black and white, it emphasizes lines and variations of shade of the petals, as well as the deep ruffly structure and edges.

Standing under a volcanic cliff overhang, looking out at a waterfall coming down on the right, a pool of water below, deep green vegetation and Douglas fir forest mostly in the shade, except for the area directly across from where I’m standing, which shows a pocket of blue sky and sunlit forest.

Two orange tulips in a blue vase against a textured white wall with their shadows looking like a couple posing for a photo. The tulip leaves are bending in front with some behind shooting straight up. The vase has flowers looking drawn with brass. The shadow bulbs are circular instead of tulip shaped.

A cluster of three yellow crocuses speckled with water droplets appears in the center of the image. The frontmost crocus is in full focus, while the back two are progressively more out of focus due to shallow depth of field. Deep green leaves grow between the flowers, which are surrounded by small dark stones. There is particular contrast between two hard stones at the bottom of the frame and the softer, colorful flowers that grow behind them.
Finally, spring! Crocuses, Norwich VT, March 2026

Close-up of the center of a pinkish red rose. A tiny petal in the center of the crown-like ring of golden stamens looks like a tiny tongue licking the tip of another small petal outside the ring but bent over it. The larger petals in the fairgrounds are curling and wavy, almost like a splash.

Black and white image focused on an azalea bloom with another bokeh to left behind it so that the waves of their petals flow into each other showing the dancing gestures of the petals. The speckled interior of the bloom is just visible. The plant is in a pot on a shelf with foliage behind above it.

A spectacular sunrise over the Willamette Valley. The sun is just peeking over the Cascades on the lower right horizon. Tall Douglas fir trees are silhouetted on the right and left edges. Mt. Hood’s conical silhouette also peeks out on the lower left. But the sky is the real show. It’s deep blue on the top, and the sun has turned ragged clouds to shades of vibrant gold against the blue and purple of the darker clouds. Oh, the drama! The spectacle!
Happy #BlueSkyMonday! Getting up early sometimes has its perks. #Sunrise #PNW #SkyDrama #NatureIsArt #GoOutside #Breathe #Notice #YouMatter

A spectacular star magnolia blossom is one of the first to open on this tree. The petals are mostly white on the upper side, but they tie pinkish on the edges. The undersides of the petals are mostly a deep, magenta pink. In the background, lots of unopened buds are getting ready to open against a deep blue sky.
The star magnolias are out of control, and I love it. #Sunday #StunDay #BloomScrolling #Magnolias #PNW #NatureIsArt #Trees #GoOutside #Breathe #Notice #Don’tGiveUp

A stick covered in a sort of tube lichen lies on the mossy forest floor. The moss has fluffy green fingers reaching toward the pale sea-green collection of tubes that give way to varying sizes of caramel-colored cup-like reproductive structures.
Found this lovely specimen of some kind of tube lichen on a fallen stick in the Coast Range yesterday. #HotStickSaturday #Lichen #Fungi #FungiFriends #Moss #Forests #PNW #ISeeMoss #NatureIsArt #GoOutside #Breathe #Notice #Don’tGiveUp
Golden, sunlit water in a creek flows over a stone, making squiggly, warm-colored ripples from bright gold to dark brown across the face of the stone, which has one orange stripe in the back that is probably a feature of the stone itself.
I love how the #water bends the sunlight flowing over this #stone in a local creek. #BlueSkyArtShow #NatureIsArt #GoOutside #Breathe #Notice #KeepGoing
Close-up of a couple of deep purple and warm yellow dwarf iris. The stripey brushstroke of yellow along the center of the petal is in focus, as is a puddle of melted ice balanced on the petal next to it. The brushstroke is bending toward the puddle.

Sunlight filters down through the boughs of some giant redwoods, illuminating a couple of baby trees in the lower left center of the picture. The scene is a gorgeous deep green with boughs and moss and undergrowth, with the dark reddish brown of the redwood especially visible in one giant towering out of the left edge of the photo. The other tree trunks are backlit, and therefore, mostly silhouettes.

A row of orange poppies descending towards the background. There's a poppy seed pod with hairy stem in detail angled in front of the closest poppy in the foreground that has light coming through some of its delicate wavy petals, the dark center stamens are visible. The rest of the flowers are bokeh.
