Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.

So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

Looks like a natural rock cairn. Great work!

Kim Van Liefferinge @kimvanlief.bsky.social · Aug 13

Absolutely impressed with your work! It almost looks like the trees are built on top of a cloud.

Kim Van Liefferinge @kimvanlief.bsky.social · Aug 13

This is one of my favorite photos on your feed. The water and sky almost look like they’re painted ❤️.

And good attention! I love how the transition from dark to light draws the eye to the mountain.

My research background deeply shapes my work. For "Imperial Harvest," I explored food history to uncover what it reveals about the European exploitation of the Americas.
