A red leaf lies on snow. Still

A single red leaf lies on smooth white snow. The leaf’s veins are clear, and the snow around it is unmarked

Tower and windbreak trees in Iowa winter. What appears still is actually working—broadcasting, sheltering, recording. Even the calm is performed.
#photography #WinterPhotography #IowaWinter #LandscapePhotography #I80 #Infrastructure
A snowy field with a cluster of bare trees covered in ice to the right. A tall radio tower stands on the left. A wire fence runs across the foreground. The sky is overcast, blending into the misty background.

Martin Parr, photographer acclaimed for observations of British life, dies aged 73
From sunbathers to Conservative clubs, Parr’s images were often in vivid colour with more than a dash of humour

The Fact, Not the Argument

A white sign reads “SNAP feeds children,” posted on rusted steel beneath a railway line.
Under a dark railway bridge, the meaning stays blunt and real.

#photography #streetphotography #documentary #snap #socialjustice #publicspace #inequality
A white poster with bold black lettering stating “SNAP FEEDS CHILDREN” is attached to a rusted metal surface beneath a bridge. The metal around it is dark, rough, and weathered, emphasizing the harsh setting.

The trees appeared in a rush of winter light, heavy with ice and dense with detail.

The scene seemed to make its own case—breathtaking, fleeting, and far ahead of anything I could plan.

#photography #monochrome #winter #landscape #bnw #trees #ontheroad #midwest
A dense stand of trees coated in ice and snow leans over a snowy roadside. Branches sag and intertwine under the weight, forming a complex and bright tangle against the pale winter sky. A fence runs diagonally across the foreground

Because of Brexit, the exchequer “will lose the thick end of £100bn in tax revenues this year”

Far from having to raise £26bn in extra taxes, Rachel Reeves could have raised spending on health, defence, infrastructure, etc and still had money to spare…

Brexit: the trillion pound ‘mistake’
The recent NBER report suggests the Treasury’s 2016 analysis – slammed by Brexiters as a ‘hoax’– actually understated the impact of Brexit

The winter trees bend under a thin crust of ice, caught between stillness and strain.
It’s a simple scene on the surface, but it carries the quiet complexity of a natural system holding itself together through the cold.

A group of bare trees stands in a snowy landscape. The branches are lightly covered with snow and ice bending the branches, creating a monochrome effect against a pale sky.

on the road, in motion, as a visitor, in winter

A winter farm appears from the road, held at a distance by motion and cold light. It’s a visitor’s moment—short, calm, and shaped by the slow winter pace of the Midwest.

#photography #winter #landscape #rural #midwest #minimalism #snow
The image shows a snow-covered landscape with a red barn and silos on a farm. In the distance, there is a white house surrounded by frost-tipped trees. The sky is overcast, casting a soft, muted light over the scene, emphasizing the cold, tranquil atmosphere.

A quiet line of winter trees in a field along I-88. Snow, fog, and a moment where I could just watch the landscape unfold from the passenger seat.

#photography #blackandwhite #monochrome #winter #landscape #snow #ontheroad #minimalism #fog #CanonR5
A small stand of bare winter trees sits alone in the middle of a wide, snow-covered field. The sky is foggy and pale, creating a soft, even tone with little contrast. The trees form a dark line against the light snow, giving the scene a quiet, isolated feeling. The landscape is empty except for the cluster of trees, and the air appears cold and still.

An experiment with medium format and Kodak Portra 160. It renders this quiet cafe moment with a gentle depth

A dandelion clock in black and white. The seeds are still, for now. Everything is waiting to become something else.

A close-up black and white image of a dandelion seed head. The delicate seeds are clustered together, each one attached to feathery filaments. The background is dark, highlighting the intricate structure of the dandelion.

A dark hill and a line of trees sit under low, heavy clouds. The still pond doubles the scene, turning the landscape into a quiet mirror.

#photography #blackandwhite #monochrome #landscape #reflection #forest #Minnesota
A still pond mirrors a dark hill lined with dense conifers. Bare trees rise from the wet ground, and heavy clouds press down from above. The scene is quiet, stark, and almost symmetrical, with the reflection forming a soft dividing line across the frame.

A torn section of birch bark. The rough grey surface frames a vivid red and brown core. I worked the bark with charcoal but kept the centre saturated. The result hints at a wound, for me, like the way we feel loss and change.

#birch #texture #photography #abstractnature #impermanence #mindfulness
A close view of damaged birch bark where a branch has torn away. The outer bark is rough, grey, and textured. At the centre is a long vertical wound exposing dark red and brown inner wood, with small streaks of gold and lighter fibres. The contrast between the pale bark and the saturated inner core makes the opening resemble a deep gash. The surrounding bark has been darkened and smudged with charcoal, while the exposed wood remains vivid.

Four Healers Return to the Earth

Four birch trees stand bare against the vast water and sky. They mark a season of return and quiet change.

#photography #BirchTrees #Minnesota #Samhain #LakeSuperior #CyclicalLife #Impermanence #autumn #impermanence #lakesuperior #fall
Four tall, leafless birch trees stand in a line on a patch of earth covered with reddish-brown and green plants. Behind them, the vast expanse of Lake Superior stretches out under a sky filled with alternating patches of blue and thick, gray clouds.

A pond holds the gray sky, framed by gold and orange leaves. Autumn quiets the world into a simple reflection.

#photography #landscape #Autumn #Minnesota #Reflection #FallColors #Nature #Peaceful
A small pond reflects the overcast sky, surrounded by a forest with autumn leaves in shades of orange and gold. Bare trees stand along the water's edge, and tall grasses grow in the foreground. The scene is calm and serene under the gray, cloud-filled sky

Dark water reflects a soft, clouded sky. The monochrome simplifies the world into a moment of calm.

A serene black and white image of a lake at dusk. The water reflects the overcast sky with thick clouds. Tall trees line the dark shoreline on both sides, and the foreground shows grasses and shrubs. The mood is calm and contemplative

A storm gathers over the Susie Islands. This is the raw beauty of the north, quiet and immense.

A view of a dense forest of tall trees stretching to the horizon. The forest meets a vast lake under a cloudy sky. The clouds are thick and grey, hinting at a possible storm. The scene conveys a sense of solitude and the power of nature.

Leafless trees stand against a wind-whipped, vivid blue lake. The gray sky amplifies the intensity of the water and the last greens of fall.
