A beach with a tree on the left in front of a rippled lake with a swimmers line. The sun is setting in a sky with wispy clouds.

A dramatic low cloud holds the high foreground, while a smooth grey cloud nearer the horizon is lit dull orange by the obscured just risen sun. There are glimpses of blue among the lighter high clouds, while the suburban landscape remains dark and only just visible.

#EastCoastKin
A soft green hillside rises gently toward a distant horizon, its surface marked by faint parallel tracks that draw the gaze into the depth of the scene. At the crest of the slope, a loose, rhythmic row of young trees cuts a clean silhouette against a wide, cloud‑strewn blue sky, creating a calm balance between land and air. The subtle lines in the field act as leading lines, guiding the eye from the foreground into the image and up to the trees, so that the whole landscape feels open, orderly, and quietly expansive.

An autumn forest scene with some trees next to a footpath being backlit by the sun. Their long shadows are being casted over the footpath covered with fallen leaves.

Cormorants in flight at sunrise.

Happy Thanksgiving. I'm very thankful for Bluesky and this community.

#photography #naturephotography #landscape
A cluster of bare cypress trees stands in silhouette over calm water. A soft sunrise glows along the horizon under cloudy skies and a small gulp of cormorants crosses the sky above the still lake. Everything is darkly reflected on the lake's smooth surface.

Last question in the 'Hitchhiking to work' quiz, before I give you an overview on all the data I collected.

What was my average waiting time (yes, I clocked with a stopwatch, the nerd I am) 😂?

#hitchhiking #quiz
Average waiting time. The answer is shielded off. Can you guess?

Bloody people at the Alhambra viewpoint (and a famous local singer)

Crowd of teen girls filming a famous local singer with their smartphones, who plays the guitar sitting on a ledge at the Alhambra viewpoint. You can see the last building of the Alhambra in the left of the picture in the distance.

Serried ranks of low cumulus are marching across the ocean horizon, backlit by the just-risen sun. Otherwise the sky is clear, and the coastal plain and framing trees are still dark in shadowy.

Driving to Rotterdam for work today, hoping for a glorious sunrise you so often hear commuters talk about. So, I got this 🤣. And traffic jams. Which were of use. Actually. So I could take these pictures 😇.

As you can imagine the variety of different cars that stopped for me while hitchhiking to work was large. There were very small ones, work vans, very luxurious cars, but also some special ones. Can you guess which special car took me besides convertibles, trucks and oldtimers?

#hitchhiking #quiz
Special cars: 2x convertible, 2x truck, 1x oldtimer, 1x unknow (for you to guess)

Thunderstorm over Mt. Gravatt this evening

Luckily it's still #Stunday because this was stunning.
Last shot is lit by lightning, not daylight!
Last three are video frame grabs, so quality is low.

A cloud to cloud lightning strike silhouetting a pine tree. The cloud is still glowing pink from the last vestiges of sunset. Internal lightning lights up thunderclouds a brilliant purple (frame grab from movie) Internal lightning lights up thunderclouds blue and purple (frame grab from movie) A lightning bolt so bright it lit up the entire landscape for kilometres, turning it bright as day. This shot was nearly 19:00 at night, completely dark.
