'CO2-Emission' #FotoVorschlag
Kennen Sie Ihren individuellen CO2-Fußabdruck?
Wenn nicht, können Sie Ihren CO2-Ausstoß auf www.wwf.de/themen-proje... ermitteln und Tipps erhalten, wie Sie den CO2-Fußabdruck reduzieren können. 👣
Das Bild zeigt einen in Stein gegossenen Fußabdrück, der Teil des "Weges der Riesen" auf dem Tippelsberg in Bochum ist. Dort gibt es mehrere solche Fußabdrücke, die an eine Volkssage angelehnt sind, nach der der Riese Tippulus auf dem Weg seine Schuhe von Lehmklumpen befreite, aus denen der Tippelsberg entstanden sein soll. Diesen Fußabdruck verwende ich heute als Symbolbild für den CO2-Fußabdruck, den wir alle erzeugen.

'Abgeknickt'
Heute beim Spazieren gesehen.🚶‍♂️
Ein abgeknickter Baum. An der Knickstelle ist das weiße Holz im Inneren des Baums zu sehen, der Rest des Baumstammes ist teils dunkelbraun und teils grün dank Moos und Efeu.

'Verloren im Dunst' #FotoVorschlag
Die Lippe in Lünen, bei Nebel. Die meisten Bäume auf den Ufern sind kaum als solche zu erkennen, aber ein großes Exemplar steht gut sichtbar rechts im Vordergrund, und auch sein Spiegelbild ist im Wasser sichtbar.

'Texturen' #FotoVorschlag
Die Textur einer Baumrinde, die mich sofort an Pullis aus Irland erinnerte.

Only when this beautiful example crossed my path, at a distance of about 50 metres, did I realise that I hadn't seen many photos of pheasants here on Bluesky recently, so here we go:
#Photography #Birds #Nature #Pheasant
At the right of this image a pheasant stands in a soily field, looking to the right, and almost the entire left-hand side of the photo is taken up by its long and thin tail.

An image taken at the entry to a pedestrian tunnel, with the focus on the far end of the tunnel where trees, foliage and bright sunlight can be seen. An image from within a dark pedestrian tunnel, with the emphasis on the not too distant end of the tunnel where trees, green foliage and bright sunlight can be seen.

Spotted on a recent walk in #Selm, #Germany.

My contribution to #ThickTrunkTuesday from a walk in the woods today in #Sprockhövel, #Germany.

The lower part of a thick tree trunk, surrounded by foliage, and with the sun in the background which I couldn't avoid.

#NoNewsToday
This image shows a large brown outdoor wooden notice board, which probably at one time had a glass window and content, but is currently empty and has no news to convey. The background is the wall of a house, and the foreground, at the bottom of the image, is part of a garden with green plants and some white and yellow flowers.

There is always one who wants to be different.

#Trees #Nature #AlwaysOne #WantsToBeDifferent #Bochum #Germany #RiverRuhr
The image shows the River Ruhr near Bochum in Germany, and at the right a cycle path on the riverbank. While most of the trees along the riverbank are growing upwards, as is normal, the tree in the foreground is growing horizontally to the left, just above the surface of the river.

Don't Fence Me In

#DontFenceMeIn #HangInThere #Bochum #Ruhr #Germany
Two thin stems of a climbing plant wind their way upwards through the gaps in a mesh fence. The background is a blue sky above the River Ruhr near Bochum in Germany, which is partly visible at the bottom of the image.

The trees were hugging again today, so it must be #Springtime.

#TreeHugging #TreeHuggers
#Trees #Nature #HugATree
Two trees very close to each other, one with its branches stretched out towards the other as if to hug it. Green grass in the background.

First signs of #spring here in Germany, with mild temperatures for a change and the first sightings of #crocuses:
A group of 9 or 10 light purple crocuses, surrounded by brown dead leaves and some green grass in the foreground.

Tree Hugging, demonstrated by professionals

#TreeHugging #TreeHuggers
#Trees #Nature #HugATree
In the foreground of this photo are two trees. One is growing vertically, and the second one to its right has one of its moss-covered branches stretched out to the left of the vertical tree, close to its trunk, and a second branch to the right of it, also close to its trunk, as if it were trying to hug it.

Still Life, Selectively Frosted

#Nature #Photography #NaturePhotography
#Winter #Ice #Frost

What particularly appealed to me in this view today was that the frost only remained on one type of plant.
One hour later the ice and frost here had completely melted.
In the background of this photo are a number of bushes and partially intertwined brambles, some still with green leaves in the middle of winter. In the foreground are several upright plants whose leafy and flowery tips are covered in white frost, adding to the already pleasant range of colours.

My #TreeOfTheDay, if only to remind me how foggy and cold it was during my walk this morning.

#Trees #Winter #Nature #Photography
A tree whose twigs have a light coating of frost. Nothing much to see in the background due to fog.

#ThickTrunkThursday with #Cobwebs
#Trees #Nature
The lower part of what was once a thick-trunked tree, open at the side from which this picture was taken, showing the rotted interior which now has lots of cobwebs in it, and not much else.

A tree whose thick branches have become intertwined. The sun is shining but the tree casts its shadow on the green grass.

The view from my kitchen window this morning

#Trees #Snow #Winter #CaptureTheMoment
A closeup view of part of a large tree, with snow on all of its branches for the first time this winter, making it look like a black & white photo.

My tree of the day from my afternoon walk

#Trees #Green #GreenTree #Moss
#Nature #Photography #NaturePhotography
A closeup photo of a tree's thick trunk, its numerous branches and its outstretched roots, all of which are almost completely covered in green moss. In the background the ground is covered by brown dead leaves from last year.

FROSTED LEAVES

Nature arranged these leaves on the ground, and I saw no need to rearrange them.

#Leaves #FrostedLeaves #Winter
#Nature #Photography #NaturePhotography
A random assortment of brown leaves lying on the ground, all with a visible thin layer of frost on their surfaces.
