La Réserve nationale de faune de la Baie de L’Isle-Verte
L'Isle-Verte (Bas-Saint-Laurent), Québec
La Réserve nationale de faune (RNF) de la Baie de l’Isle-Verte constituée de vastes étendues de marais, est située sur la rive sud de l’estuaire moyen du fleuve Saint-Laurent à 30 km au nord-est de la municipalité de Rivière-du-Loup. Ce territoire de 406 ha s’étend sur une bande riveraine de quelques 20 km le long du Saint-Laurent. Créée en 1980 par Environnement Canada, la réserve protège le plus important marais à spartine du Québec méridional, dernier grand vestige de ce type d’habitat vital pour la survie du Canard noir, ce qui lui a aussi valu d’être reconnue comme zone humide d'importance internationale en vertu de la Convention de Ramsar.

Baie de l'Isle-Verte National Wildlife Area
L'Isle-Verte (Bas-Saint-Laurent), Quebec
The Baie de l'Isle-Verte National Wildlife Area (NWA) encompasses a broad expanse of marshland lying on the south shore of the Upper Estuary of the St. Lawrence River 30 km northeast of Rivière-du-Loup. With an area of 406 ha, it covers a riparian strip running some 20 km along the St. Lawrence. Established in 1980 by Environment Canada, its purpose is to protect the largest Spartina marsh in southern Quebec, the last great vestige of this habitat vital to the survival of the American Black Duck, which has led to its being designated a Wetland of International Significance under the Ramsar Convention.

A capture made while visiting Northeast Harbor, Maine ... that is my daughter out there as well taking some snaps :)
It's as if the sunflowers already knew what was about to happen, as they tilted their heads as if that would bring something. Thank you little suns for this opportunity.

A view of the pier at Walnut Beach in Milford Connecticut. First sunrise of the New Year, many more to come.
On Munich's Fröttmaninger Heide one blade from Portugal in the southwest of Europe meets another from Finland in the northeast of Europe. There's about 3,400 km great circle distance between the locations of the two knife makers - and Munich is not on that great circle.... 😁.
The Finnish blade is a Wood Jewel "Vuolu 10", the Portuguese blade is a José da Cruz "Merendeira".

The Old Pier at Bridport, northeast Tasmania. If you look closely you can see a cargo ship on the horizon, the Mathew Flinders ferry that delivers to and from Flinders Island.
This lens goes to f/32 (that's f-thirty-two, not f-three-point-two!!), and at f/29.0 I got a massive field of view to get piers and ship all in focus.

The fishing pond at the park where I work. Went mountain biking there today and had all the trails to myself. This was nearing the end of my ride and I stopped to admire the beauty.
Some days the sunset clouds line up in unusual directions.... in this case about 90 degrees from the angle that would be more common that time of year. Alas, it seems winter has arrived here this week..... at least it chased away the Colorado fire smoke we had the past few days.
At last I am rewarded with a decent sunrise, and pleased too as those Death Rock boulders are a nightmare to navigate to the waters edge
Gwaneumsa Temple is named after Gwanseeum-bosal (The Bodhisattva of Compassion). This fairly common temple name in Korea is located on the northeast side of Mt. Hallsan. It’s believed that the temple dates back to sometime during the Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392). However, there is very little proof that indicates the exact year of Gwaneumsa Temple’s construction. During the early 1700’s, when the Joseon royal court proclaimed Confucianism as the state religion, Buddhism suffered horribly from this policy decision. In fact, Gwaneumsa Temple was completely destroyed during this time in Korea’s history. However, in 1912, the temple was rebuilt by the Buddhist nun, Anbongryeokwan. It was later renovated and expanded in 1964...

Our average temperature for the whole month of January in this part of Northeast Ohio has been 21.6° (–5.5°C). Winter's not been here for a month yet, and it can already be called the coldest in about the last 5 years. These two northern cardinals don't seem to mind the frigid conditions. Male in foreground and female in back.
In the Northeast U. S. we look forward to seeing white-winged gulls every winter like this juvenile Iceland. They breed mostly further north in the Arctic. The other white-winged gull that we see here, but is less common, is the Glaucous Gull.
The 3rd Ave Bridge cuts through the Northeast neighborhood into downtown Minneapolis on a very colorful winter twilight hour.
I captured this image at the Falls Platform with a view looking to the northeast at Brooks Falls while observing a brown bear in Katmai National Park. The image is of a male brown bear on top of the Falls waiting for salmon to make the jump and attempt to catch it to eat. He was using his left front paw to scratch his head.
Offered once again as a comparison to the preceding image of Amtrak 662 which was captured at nearly the same angle over 23 years later. Amtrak 916 leads a regional consist east through Edison, NJ. Based on the time of day and consist, this may have been train 95, the Old Dominion. Back then trains still carried names, although the "Northeast Direct" designation (a precursor to today's Northeast Regional service) did appear in the timetable as well.
