A stunning flower both yellow and orange, a glorious mixture.

Everyday I have the pleasure and privilege of working with beauty. It is a voyage of discovery, working forensically on flowers, new things every day.

Nature at its very best.

I love Ranunculus, densely layered, and this bloom opened beautifully, not always evident, their stems are extremely delicate and do tend to just collapse before the bud can open into a gorgeous voluptuous bloom...

 

With love to you and thanK you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

From inside the main sanctuary of the ruins of the City Methodist Church, Cary, Indiana

 

Most of the roof of the 9 story Gothic style hall of worship, the main sanctuary, collapsed, leaving the bare walls to years of weather damage. The debris at the bottom of the image was once the ceiling.

 

This is an HDR merge of three shots.

Much earlier this winter. I am seeing no snow out my window now.

Crater Lake is the result of a HUGE volcano collapsing.

Sunset at the "Twelve Apostles" near Port Campbell, Victoria, Australia...

 

From Wikipedia - The Twelve Apostles is a collection of limestone stacks off the shore of the Port Campbell National Park, by the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. Their proximity to one another has made the site a popular tourist attraction. Currently there are eight Apostles left, the ninth having collapsed dramatically in July 2005. The name remains significant and spectacular especially in the Australian tourism industry.

The same playground as in this. No HDR used here.

This is the 3rd photo of this mushroom.

 

On November 24th, I saw him for the first time. Young and strong.

Round December 1st he was it his most beautiful.

Now, a week later, he has collapsed...

The Siq (Arabic: السيق‎, transliterated al-Sīq, transcribed as-Sīq,[a] literally 'the Shaft') is the main entrance to the ancient Nabatean city of Petra in southern Jordan. Also known as Siqit, the main entrance in Petra is a dim, narrow gorge (in some points no more than 3 metres (10 ft) wide) winds its way approximately 1.2 kilometres (0.75 mi) and ends at Petra's most elaborate ruin, Al Khazneh (the Treasury). A wide valley outside leading to the Siq is known as the Bab as-Sīq (Gateway to the Siq).

 

Unlike slot canyons like Antelope Canyon, which are directly shaped by water, the Siq is a natural geological fault split apart by tectonic forces; only later was it worn smooth by water. The walls that enclose the Siq stand between 91–182 metres (299–597 ft) in height.]

 

The entrance to the Siq contains a huge dam, reconstructed in 1963 and again in 1991, designed to bar the mouth of the Siq and reroute the waters of Wadi Musa. The dam is a fairly true reconstruction of what the Nabataeans did to control Wadi Musa between the 1st century BC and the beginning of the 1st century AD. The entrance also contains the remnants of a monumental arch, of which only the two abutments and some hewn stones of the arch itself have survived. The arch collapsed in 1896 following an earthquake, but its appearance is known from the lithographs of Matthew Boulby and David Roberts.

 

The Siq was used as the grand caravan entrance into Petra. Along both walls of the fissure are a number of votive niches containing baetyli, which suggest that the Siq was sacred to the Nabatean people. In 1998, a group of statues were uncovered when digging was conducted to lower the road by more than six feet. Although the upper part is greatly eroded, it is still possible to recognise the figures of two merchants, each leading two camels. The figures are almost twice lifesize.

 

Along the Siq are some underground chambers, the function of which has not yet been clarified. The possibility that they were tombs has been excluded, and archaeologists find it difficult to believe that they were dwellings. The majority consensus is that they housed the guards that defended the main entrance to Petra.

This is a simple collection of lines and curves. So named because as the lines converge, they seem to collapse downward.

Abstract

On the way back from Casevile Meghan spotted this sweet barn that had literally collapsed. This does not do justice to the sky, which was truly magnificent; however, we were shooting into it so this is the best I could do. I like how the red wood on the roof looks like a cross.

Upon entering this abandoned space, I was struck by the theatricality of this collapsed ceiling, suspended in a precarious balance between destruction and beauty.

The light penetrating through this gaping wound turned celestial window reveals the poetry of decline: wooden beams hanging like natural sculptures, vegetation timidly colonizing the debris, and that mysterious blue door still resisting the passage of time.

My intention was to capture this moment where nature reclaims its rights, where destruction becomes creation, where the silence of abandonment resonates like a meditation on impermanence.

This image celebrates the melancholic beauty of forgotten places and questions our relationship with time, memory, and the inevitable transformation of everything built by human hands.
