it's #autumn on Lake Tugalo for #BlueSkyArtShow

#EastCoastKin #lakes #fallcolors #trees

Lake Tugalo is a lake formed by a dam on the Chattooga River where the movie Deliverance was filmed. the river forms the boundary between South Carolina & Georgia. it joins with the Tallulah River in the lake which becomes the Tugaloo River below the dam. it flows to the confluence with the Seneca River and that becomes the Savannah River which empties into the Atlantic Ocean.

The Shard - London, but not as you know it. Another addition to the Kaleidoscopic photography series. This time around, making use of the lines and reflections from one of London's best known landmarks.

Enjoy your weekend, people 🩶

Good morning. It’s the weekend. Just take a deep breath, relax and remember that Ireland is here to heal your heart and soul. If you haven’t already, put us on your bucket list. 😊☘️ #ColorADay #GreenSat #Ireland #photography #sunset #EastCoastKin

A narrow stream winds through tall green Irish grasses under a dramatic evening sky. The sunset casts golden reflections on the water, with orange and yellow hues glowing along the horizon beneath dark, heavy clouds. A lone tree stands on the left, silhouetted against the light, and distant hills fade into the background.

📌 Candela.
(Candle).

Candela sugiere filosóficamente que la verdadera luz reside en la esencia y no depende de la iluminación externa. El caballo, con su presencia impactante, encarna el concepto de la conciencia individual que irradia desde su interior. Es un faro de nobleza que se define a sí mismo en el entorno.

La imagen nos invita a reflexionar sobre la existencia como una luz de verdad. Esta flama, sutil pero poderosa, tiene la capacidad de disipar la bruma o la ignorancia (simbolizadas por el fondo difuminado), afirmando la permanencia de la esencia sobre la fugacidad de las circunstancias.

A curious puffin peering out of its burrow.

A colourful puffin's head is visible through a hole in a mud bank. Its white cheeks, triangular eye marking of black and orange, and its wonderful triangular black and orange ridged beak are all clearly visible. A single green leaf pokes out of the RHS of the opening.

I tried experimenting with long exposure. Not sure if it’s any good or not!

A bit of fresh air therapy on Halloween really lifts the spirits! 👻🍂🕊️

#Scape #BlueSkyArtShow #autumn #sky #31DaysOfHalloween #mountains #clouds

The sun shining over the Thompson River in the interior of British Columbia. There are several mountains and trees in the distance, and the leaves have turned gold and brown. The sky is blue with long white clouds, and there’s a mirror image reflecting on the water.
