It is hard to believe that I was seeing a hint of fall colors on September 9th but I am certainly not complaining. After a long hard day of hiking in the Shining Rock Wilderness my friend and I set up camp on the Flat Laurel creek. I found this spot a couple hundred yards downstream and it was a fantastic end to an excellent day of hiking. I was hoping for a bit more color in the sky but the light pretty much fizzled out after this shot.

Whites, reds, golds, yellows and greens on the salt flats near Whitehorse in southern Yukon. This is a low lying area of mud flat/salt flat not far from the Takhini river. I wasn’t sure what the red plant growing from the mud was while I was there, but on my return home, I did some research and discovered that it is called Boreal Saltwort (Salicornia borealis), and that it is considered critically imperilled in Canada. This makes me think that hiking around the Takhini Salt Flats should only be done with great care so as to avoid disturbing these amazing plants. All of that said, perhaps it is the erosion caused by animal and human activity in the area that keeps the grasses from overrunning the Saltwort altogether. Who knows? It would be nice to see some work done on this, and signs posted accordingly.
Photo taken with the Canon EOS R and RF 24-105mm f/4.0 L. Image processed from raw in Adobe Lightroom. The image was straightened slightly and cropped in just a little from the left. Otherwise, it has not been modified except for basic adjustments to exposure, colour, and light to make it as natural as possible. Like a couple of my other images from the day's outing, this would have been a wonderful photo to process as a focus stack, but in the end, it is a single exposure shot at f/8 to maximize depth of field without inducing diffraction.
Went down to Raspberry Flat....it seemed like a long gravel road to get there, but the views were worth the time.
Chic and understated, the Florance Flats bring quiet elegance to any look with their soft fabric finish and delicate knotted ribbon detail. Designed for comfort without compromising style.

This is why they consider the Netherlands as flat. You can see the church tower from miles ahead / Het vlakke Nederland. Blik op Reeuwijk vanaf Tempel.
This has been the warmest spell of February weather I can remember. Warm sunshine and almost flat calm water at Burghead harbour. Global warming for sure...

This is Toronto's own Flatiron Bulding. The Flatiron was constructed in 1897 predating the famous Flatiron Building in NYC.
The Flat Iron Building, in downtown Edmonton. Built in 1913, it's seen two pandemics. It's my favourite corner in Edmonton.
No whining. You just soldier on at the Gibson Block...

The flats in Sony's Bravia advert were demolished today - news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/glasgow_and_west/6284791.stm. Thar she blows.

Several days of continuous rain led to very high flow rates over Spruce Flats Falls in the Tremont area of Great Smoky Mountains National Park, TN. Even though the water removed a lot of interesting foreground, the warms tones from the mud added another dimension to the image. I've never worked so hard for pictures as I did here, for several reasons. First, my camera started acting very strange the day before at Black Balsam Knob (almost no buttons working, the camera would take a picture when it was turned on, etc.). I think humidity got inside the body during a wet night in the tent. Thankfully, after taking off the lens and removing the battery/memory card, the camera dried out somewhat (still quirky) to a functioning state. To be careful, I held an umbrella over the camera during this particular shoot to keep off the light rain. Holding the umbrella in one hand and manipulating the camera/tripod with the other is hard work!
Spruce Flats Falls isn't marked on a lot of maps of the park for some reason. Maybe it's because the Great Smoky Mountain Institute often uses the falls for photography workshops? I'm not sure. But anyway, here's the directions to the falls: Park in the parking lot next to the Institute in the Tremont area. Follow the signs for Lumberjack Gap Trail up a small gravel road to some more buildings. On the left side the trail continues up, and a side trail marked 'Falls' diverges up and to the right. The trail climbs over a small ridge and down to the falls (about a mile in length, I would say). Hope this helps some of you find the falls, since the park doesn't make it easy.

One of the Copley Mesas, locally called the Copley Flat Tops. This one isn't very flat on top, at least at this end. A little cloud in the sky. Processed in Lightroom, Tamron lens.
Come down off your throne and leave your body alone - somebody must change
You are the reason I’ve been waiting so long - somebody holds the key
Well, I’m near the end and I just ain’t got the time
And I’m wasted and I can’t find my way home
Come down on your own and leave your body alone - somebody must change
You are the reason I’ve been waiting all these years - somebody holds the key
Well, I’m near the end and I just ain’t got the time
And I’m wasted and I can’t find my way home...
