Good Morning!

Telephoto lense used to capture more detail on the valley floor. Clouds weave among the trees. Mountain peaks illuminated by the rising sun.

More #Fall color goodness from the Meadow Mountain trail near Minturn, #Colorado, where the sunlight sneaking in and out of the clouds challenged me to find the right moments to snap those pics. This one had a little bonus old cabin for the scene.

Standing Mountain @standingmountain.bsky.social · 2h

Truth, then, is not a possession,
but a connection—
the echo of the cosmos recognizing itself in sentience.

In the act of pondering,
the Mystery does not merely appear;
it creates itself again,
each time more complete,
more subtle, more luminous.

Malé, Maldives. Sunset Golden Hour cityscape. Photo taken from the terrace of a seven-story building captures a breathtaking view of the city skyline at sunset. The buildings stand in near silhouette against the sky, with the sun positioned low in the center of the frame. The colors transition from a vibrant yellow surrounding the sun to a golden hue a bit further away, and finally to a tangerine shade at the edges.

the void begins to bloom
carving space to breathe

Macro image of a perfectly formed cobweb with dew drops attached to rusty barbed wire that's wrapped around a weathered and splintery wooden post.

It's a great spot, on the interior of the park which doesn't get as much traffic.

Looking up a thick tall tree trunk up into the sky. There are green leaves up at the top and the sun is shining through some of them.

Vanishing and Endangered Cultures @nowaykgn.bsky.social · 1d

When I met the wide-eyed gaze of this schoolgirl—her tousled hair, her face alive with quiet curiosity—I lowered my camera. In that instant, her unguarded innocence shattered my detachment, reminding me of the fleeting privileges we take for granted and the fragile beauty of our shared humanity.

Upon seeing the wide-eyed gaze of this innocent schoolgirl, her tousled hair framing a face filled with quiet curiosity and unspoken stories from a distant classroom, I had to put my camera down. In that moment of stillness, I reflected on the fleeting nature of my own life—the privileges, the cultures fading away before my eyes, and how a single child's unfiltered expression can cut through the lens to remind us of our shared humanity.

PATHS
Since I was little I've been attracted to paths.
A path through trees is charming.
A path between mountains is excellent.
A path along a stream is peaceful.
BON DIA ♥️ AMICS MEUS
