Some moisture on my lens immediately froze when I left the house at -14 degrees celsius. So this effect wasn't planned for or created in post but I liked it enough to keep the image.
Simply the best time to photograph bokeh - after the rain and in the sunshine AND through my Tamarisk tree.
Late day sunlight sneaks into the scene just before sunset captured there from Cadillac Mountain in Maine. Liked the exposed water on the rocks that was reflecting that sunlight. The mix of that light on the rocks, textures, and lichen was pretty amazing to take all in.
As a photographer you take photos because you are recording what your eye is seeing at the time and for me I use this medium as an art form, and from time to time I get goose bumps when I look through the view finder and see something out of the ordinary, and this is one of those shots.
I took this one this morning at around 7.00am my first sunrise outing for some time and to come back with this kind of shot made it all worth while, it even shows up some cobweb strands, and I just LOVE that water droplet at the tip of that thorn! Please let me know what you think of it!!
Spring arrives but Tom departs this Earth - Another sad loss to covid-19 (Shame about what happened in 2023)
After a mostly dry February, El Nino is delivering a Pineapple Express, a moisture-laden series of storms coming from the Hawaiian Islands. This image is raindrops caught in a web.
I just hope that these strong storms do not create serious flooding and mudslides in the many burn areas throughout California and the Pacific Northwest.
Happy Friday! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

Osteospermum and daisies are very similar flowers. Osteospermum actively and luxuriantly blooms all summer and the first half of autumn until frost. Among the color options of the flowers are orange, pink, lilac, purple, purple, white. Often the paint is not monophonic, but turning into other shades.
The lush buds of the Cape daisy open at low air temperature. The corollas are about 5 cm in diameter. When grown in shaded areas, the osteospermum grows up to 100 cm, in sunny areas — up to 50 cm. The plant perfectly tolerates even sudden changes in weather conditions. It prefers regular watering, light soil, and open areas....
It looks like its northern sister, the white chamomile,
with osteospermum petals around the middle
, a flower from distant hot countries, from Africa,
blooms from July to November with heavenly colors.
The color is white, pink, orange, purple,
they need more warmth and a lot of light,
a little moisture and care, as well as a sea of affection -
the eyes look at them from under the delicate petals and smile at us ... A miracle!
Look at this! I've had to change my description of this type of frost ....it is not hoar frost, but what is called rime frost. There has been some moisture the past few days in the form of fog and this is what Wiki says~~~
~~~~Hard rime is a white ice that forms when the water droplets in fog freeze to the outer surfaces of objects. It is often seen on trees atop mountains and ridges in winter, when low-hanging clouds cause freezing fog. This fog freezes to the windward (wind-facing) side of tree branches, buildings, or any other solid objects, usually with high wind velocities and air temperatures between −2 and −10 °C (28 and 14 °F).[6] ~~~~~~~~
Then it snowed on top of that ... I guess the frost on the trees caught and held on to some snow too ... now it is thick on the branches and needles of the pine trees like this...so beautiful..... it's on all the trees...but, some are just more fluffy looking than others... this one was spectacular!
It's -20C this morning, so pretty nippy out there ..... but, I bundled up in parka and toque and ... well forget mitts or gloves; you can't take pictures wearing them.... so my fingers got good and cold!
I can't get onto the golf course through my neighbours yard in winter...she puts out a sign meant for me.... Do Not Enter ..on her gate to her backyard.... she is worried about a lawsuit I imagine. It does get slippery and dangerous...
But, I walked up two blocks and along a back alley as I knew I could at least see onto the course from there...and, lo and behold..I spied a large double vehicle gate that was held with chain and lock, but ajar enough that I could squeeze through. Hah! I wandered around for 39 photos worth and then, was too cold to hang out much longer.
I was hoping a coyote or deer might show up as I did see lots of animal prints.... but, cross country skiers and snowshoers also use the area for recreation...so probably they don't show up too often. Although, today, being a bit colder...I didn't notice anybody but me.....
Now, I'm gonna make me some hot chocolate !! I deserve it!
The tiny Agaric fungi (max height about 8 cm) known collectively as horse hair fungi (Marasmius sp.) are widespread in the Northern hemishere.
They are unusual in that the release of spores is dependent on high moisture levels.
The mushrooms can survive desiccation and readily revive after rain to continue releasing spores.
Deciduous woodland, Quebec, Canada.
Marasmius rotula?

Capturing the winter roses along the Rose District in Broken Arrow. Yes, captured on 12/21/2021 and that is a lot of 2s and 1s in a date hand.

Ledebouria leptophylla
Dry winters with a result of many veldfires.....but even before the first spring rains fall some plants manage to raise their head through the burned grass thanks to moisture kept in their bulbs...

looks like it'll be a few more days before we can safely leave the house....frozen sleet covering everything....almost fell twice going out to the streetside mail box......results after 3 hours of melting.
Just to reassure friends we don't have blazing sun all summer though our farmers are suffering a drought away from the coastal rain.
There is some uniqueness about moisture. The heavy one condensed at forest floor to nourish a dreamy world and the light one dancing in air with golden sunset to add the world with peace, hope and energy. The sound of wind and the smell of Pacific mist further added some drama to me when taking this shot at about 15 miles away.
