"The Sound of Rain", Scotland (2024).

From an early morning scout down on a loch shore, I initially went to see what these small ponds would look like facing in the complete other direction. When I approached on foot, I came over a small crest and was suddenly presented with gorgeous glowing light, the sound of soft rain on the water's surface, a perfectly framed mountain, and a fragment of ancient woodland.

À bientôt!

Let's take a break from those cold winter posts to a pic along the prettiest road in NY on a summer night. Thev raid takes you past Cascade lake nestled between the beautiful Cascade mountains. It's a stunning drive and I just had to stop to capture the subtle sunset colors in the sky.

Hey everyone! I'm hoping to pool some community knowledge and get recommendations for more creatives to follow!

I'm interested in naturalistic (not AI) #landscape and #nature #photography, #storytelling, #conservation, and #blackandwhite. Drop your suggestions down below; if we build up a good list I'll pin this to my profile for people to view as a resource.

Shout out to @geoff_eg for the great idea.

"Raking Light", Drakensberg 2024. We had risen in the dark to make the short but steep walk up to this view point on our final morning of a 75km traverse of the berg, and were greeted to views with such depth and light of a wonderful quality. The winds were strong but nothing could distract from the immensity of our surroundings.
