I wish you all a wonderful weekend!

I have been unwell lately and mostly have spent time contemplating ----and worried about myself----, but like Einstein said, everything is in order now and I am happy.

Thank you so much for all your comments, invites and faves, it is overwhelming!!!!

A thin layer of snow at the beginning of winter.

I am glad I took this last winter because in summer they repaired the barn in front and it doesn't look as weathered now.

Spring is, by far, my favourite time of the year. The switch from the dark, cold and often wet days to brighter, warmer and more dry days is absolutely wonderful.

Here I love the contrast between the dead branches in the front, the young, green birches and the…umm…beeches? in the background against the sky with the clouds. It produces a nice layering effect and everything just looks so fresh.

Montaione, Tuscany, Italy

Looking westward from near Steele's Tavern, Virginia at sunset

The darkest foreground slopes belong to the Blue Ridge, and the more distant ridges across the Shenandoah Valley are part of the Appalachian Mountains.

The peak at the left edge is (I'm pretty sure) Droop Mountain in West Virginia, some 70 miles (110km) away

Sunset over Missouri River

From Katy Trail

Missouri State Park, Rocheport Missouri

After centuries of weathering and a big fall of snow, this rock near the summit of Oxen Craig on Bennachie looks like a badly iced cake!!

Still looking back at that sunset at Windy Post, Dartmoor. I think that (along with the Burnham visit) was my favourite shoot of 2022! This was just the general view looking out over the moor. Such an atmospheric place!

THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FAVES

ON THE REACTIONS I WILL TRY TO RESPOND BACK

A sunset at Shenandoah National Park...I thought about introducing a different style as I said before but I am not comfortable yet...So...Until then I will just post what I know best...

I will post all the photos from our trip to SNP which I was not going to since I was not all that excited about the results...But I will anyway.

Hope you have a fantastic Monday!

On this evening, I wasn't expecting much of a sunset so I didn't bring my tripod as I walked the shoreline of Lake Huron. Then when this happened, I tried handheld to capture the blush of pink on the water as the sun was going down. I was surprised at how well it worked! The layers of textures and light was a lovely mix to make a simple sunset interesting.
