The Winter Solstice arrived with the magic of sunshine and mist last year 📷🕊️ ….
Around the bend of the river the mornings first light awakens the distant vista.

After the rain, mist lifting over Derwentwater and Cat Bells in the Lake District. Calm conditions after a wet weekend.

Happy Tuesday! I'm heading back to New Jersey after a very productive trip on Cape Cod so here is another photo from Sunday morning taken eight minutes before the sun broke the horizon at West Dennis Beach. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

Weathered wooden fence in black and white, seen from a low angle so the rails lead diagonally into the distance, with tall grass and a soft, foggy background fading into blur.

The trail can be misty and cozy at the same time 📷🕊️ …
The path through the forest is glorified with fallen leaves as the mist hugs the trees on this Fall day.

Curving forest path covered in red brown autumn leaves, leading into a dark stand of trees, with muted green and brown tones that give the scene a quiet, moody fairytale feeling.

Based upon images from Gearrannan Blackhouse Village, Isle of Lewis. Oil on Fabriano, 70 x 100cm

#oilpainting #scotland #isleoflewis #outerhebrides
Coastal scene of historic thatched cottages on the Scottish islands: sketchy mess of grasses and scattered snow in the foreground, 2 cottages nestled into the landscape, with headland and rough sea beyond. Simple grey sky and limited palette of browns, blues, greys and splashes of orange.

#forest #nature #woods #naturephotography #autumn #moody #photography
Soft morning light filters through a dense forest, illuminating the orange-brown fallen leaves on the ground. Tall dark tree trunks rise vertically, creating depth and contrast against the hazy, misty background. A warm patch of light glows in the distance, giving the scene a calm, atmospheric, almost magical feeling.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
