Strong winds, autumn leaves and sunshine. Quite a treat watching the leaves migrate around the park in massive waves as each big gust blasts through.
Stirling starling, this evening, while I was trespassing in the Zuiderdiep nature reserve in the Netherlands in my little pontoon boat. Nobody saw...

I never made promises lightly
and there have been some that I’ve broken
but I swear in the days still left
we’ll walk in the fields of gold
we’ll walk in the fields of gold
Another view of the beautiful Lake Hawea.
As you travel north on the road to the West Coast (the road can just be seen in the left of the picture) you get a wonderful view of Lake Wanaka and Lake Hawea together from right in the middle of the two. Then you journey through the wonderfully scenic Haast Pass on route to the West Coast of New Zealand (which offers a whole new look with native forest, ferns, fauna, lakes & glaciers).

enjoy your day;)
Well, I dreamed I saw the knights
In armor coming,
Saying something about a queen.
There were peasants singing and
Drummers drumming
And the archer split the tree.
There was a fanfare blowing
To the sun
That was floating on the breeze.
Look at mother nature on the run
In the nineteen seventies.

Image created with Adobe Photoshop Beta using Adobe Firefly imaging model.
I just typed in the prompt "A highly detailed abstract Art photo with wavy paint like lines and glossy bubble structures. colors in Red, Yellow and Black"
My idea was to create an abstract image representing rivers and gold nuggets.
These golden colored crocuses rise from the mossy forest floor to signal spring. They are a welcome sight.

A bitterly cold, yet peaceful morning is momentarily interrupted by Canadian Pacific's train 281 rushing westbound into the Reeseville Marsh basin just outside of Richwood.

Apparently someone at some point discarded their goldfish in this stormwater management pond. The bird caught five of them (of various colours) in the hour or so that I watched.

Another shot from my recent summer solstice hike up Monarch Mountain in Atlin. As the sun started to dip behind the mountains, the sky turned this amazing golden colour which was beautifully reflected in the lake. It seemed a rather fitting capture of this area shaped by the gold rush!

Brilliant yellow leaves of Balsam Poplar (Populus balsamifera) line a mining road that ascends the lower reaches of the Duke River with the leading edge of the Donjek Range slanting into the distance, Kluane First Nation, Yukon.
Balsam Poplar have earned a reputation for flourishing on flood plains and other disturbed, rocky soils, and this habit is illustrated clearly here. This particular species produces leaves that, in addition to turning an ostentatious shade of yellow in the autumn, are filled with various phenolic compounds, both tannin and otherwise (tannins are one kind of phenolic polymer that many plants produce, and most people encounter phenolics in apples, tea, and wine). When I started my graduate work investigating how plant species influence nutrient cycling in soils, I read extensively about how Balsam Poplar phenolics reduce nutrient availability and promote the build-up of soil carbon, especially in soils where alder are growing. As it so happens, alder are the first trees that typically colonize a flood plain, and they are routinely out-competed by Balsam Poplar (and later Spruce) in areas with longer disturbance intervals.
