A less than well kept garage in Oak Grove, Oregon, near Hood River. I took this during the Eagle Creek Fire, when smoke hung thick in the air. You can see the golden light through the trees on the garage. The sun was a deep orange well before sunset due to the smoke. I did not augment the yellow. I just brightened it up a bit, and gave it the Orton Effect.

This old beech is one of less than 700 (of formerly 200,000) trees in Berlin's largest park that survived WW2 and the post-war period when Berliners cut down trees for firewood to make it through freezing winters.
For a few years, Tiergarten park was used as a potato field and for growing vegetables until from the late 1940s onwards, trees were replanted here, making the park the green lung of the city again.
With climate change, one can't overestimate the role of trees in a city. And adequate tree cover can lower summer daytime temperatures by as much as 10 degrees Fahrenheit. Trees act as a carbon dioxide sink by fixing carbon during photosynthesis and storing it as biomass (wood).
Hence, Berlin's city administration decided to plant 335,000 new trees in Berlin's parks and forests by the end of this year. In part, they will replace trees that died or have to be cut down due to drought and wind breakage. For creating more sustainable future forests, it is vital to avoid monocultures and give preference to heat-resistant species.
Beeches are among the trees considered suited to climate change in Germany (at least if properly watered while young) - so fortunately, this old giant is not going to be one of the last of its kind...
Was awaiting for the passing clouds to spot light the bright white houses overlooking Lough Keel with Doogort Mountain at backdrop(Achill Island)

Shameless plug... but generating this image was hell, technically. The whole process has been hell frankly.
Back from migration, this Lesser Yellowlegs shorebird foraged for tadpoles in a small, watery ditch at Fort Morgan today...I hadn't seen one in several years!
The big four pack of various GE locomotives weren't as impressive rolling downhill as they were going uphill, however the fact that the train was set up like this was still pretty cool.
Tympanuchus pallidicinctus
An endangered species of bird that will likely go extinct during my lifetime due to habitat loss and fragmentation. Formerly found throughout the southern great plains of the United States, is now only found in small isolated pockets in the area where New Mexico, Texas, and Oklahoma come together.
This is a male trying his best to impress one of the females watching the display.

Gotta love the Leggs, , ,
The incredible landscape light painting by Phill Fisher has always been inspirational to me. I was out recently and saw the perfect opportunity to pay homage. This is a single exposure. 🙏
likely less if you factor in the 'shaker' hood and 'hurst 'pistol grip' shifter

I have ordered a new camera and lens so hopefully in a week or so I will have brand new images to share. Learning a new camera and lens and new computer system will be challenging but if you do not make your mind work it will only get harder later on.

I think less clothing works better- I tried a bit more modesty and she loses impact, doesn't she?
Keep it skimpy, I think?
On a previous sunrise, a Flickr friend said something about perfection and I said something about always hoping for a better one. I didn’t have to wait long.
I can’t explain this rash of beautiful sunrises — much less in June. June is not known for beautiful skies in Georgia. It’s known for being hot, hazy and humid. I always return to one of my mantras about life: You can’t get lucky if you don’t show up.

This has to be one of the best sunrises I ever photographed. I took the first frame at 5:52 and shot almost non-stop until 7:30 — well after sunrise. I’ve got plenty of individual pictures from the past to match anything I got this morning, but for the diversity of looks and the length of time is was interesting, this is one of the best I’ve ever seen. I shot over 900 frames and kept 135 frames on the first edit. What was most interesting was how evenly lit many of them were — the lightest exposure and darkest exposure (I bracket) of a scene were both acceptable. That’s quite unusual for me.
No, I don’t have any idea what I’ll do with all of them. Yes, I am a very lucky man to get to do this every day.
