This was Esthwaite Water, on a warm September evening. I managed to capture the mists that had begun to roll in over the surface of the water. There were groups of bats skimming over the surface of the water feeding on unsuspecting insects.

We're having a beautiful sunny Sunday evening. Decided to use the pocket camera that's waterproof for a water capture. My very first try on this. 182/365
Moss and grass underwater at Cors y Llyn wetland reserve. March was wet after a dry start to the year.
A serene night at Tindbukta, Kvarsnes, where the northern sky comes alive with vibrant aurora sweeping across the stars. The still waters of Holmsundfjorden create a perfect mirror, doubling the magic of the lights above. A long exposure captures the depth of the moment—where mountains, sky, and reflections meet in quiet harmony.
Fun fact:
Auroras are caused by charged particles from the Sun colliding with Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere. The specific colors—green in this case—come from oxygen molecules about 100 km above the surface!
Collembola under a drop of water.
The Collembola's (aka Dicyrtomina minuta forma ornata) feet make use of surface tension that allow it to walk upside down on a drop of water.
There is no way to penetrate the surface of life but by attacking it earnestly at a particular point. -Charles Horton Cooley
A jumper surfaces and gasps as she comes up in the icy lake water during the Penguin Plunge held at City Beach in Whitefish Montana as part of the City’s annual Winter Carnival. The plunge is held to benefit Special Olympics and is sponsored by Local Law Enforcement agencies and businesses. Over 130 people jumped and raised more than $40,000!

Distorted reflections in the windows of a San Francisco building.
Almost every time I photograph in big city (and sometimes small city…) downtowns I end up getting distracted by the things reflected in the windows of tall buildings, and by how they relate to the forms of these architectural structures.
Buildings of certain styles and vintages have exteriors that are largely glass. While these buildings have physical forms and volumes, what we see of them is more a result of what is around them than of their own shapes. I’m intrigued by how little of what we see when we look at such structures is actually the structures themselves — most of what we see is virtual, imaginary, and transitory. In this photograph, all you see of the buildings actual exterior are a few non-reflective areas between windows — some dark horizontal strips and a few lighter vertical panels. Everything else in the image is either inside the building (a few interior lights seen through the windows) or a distorted reflection of the building’s surroundings.

Bubble-net feeding is a complicated, highly synchronized effort that shows high biological intelligence. One whale usually leads the endeavor, diving deep then rising up to the surface. From deep below, it'll begin to blow air to create bubbles. It confuses and traps the fish above. Then, the rest of the team follows, creating a cumulative fence around the prey, like a corral. The whales then gather inside the bubble-net and rise to the surface, mouths wide open.
The rim of a large crater, with some smaller craters within. I originally planned to have this rim be at one end of my base, with the entire base inside the crater. But now I'm thinking of building parts of it outside, e.g. I have a few Windtraps that would make sense to have on the rim, to pick up the maximum amount of wind. Also, I have a force field barrier, that would make more sense to have on the outside than on the inside of the crater...
Mission Bridge
District of Matsqui, Abbotsford, BC Canada
Views of mountains and farmland abound in this regional park. Hugging the banks of the Fraser River, the park’s namesake trail provides a way for walkers, cyclists and horse riders to experience nature. No matter what the season, there’s something to see – from wildflowers to swans to sturgeon.
Trails
Dyke Trail is 7.1 km long and has a semi-firm fine gravel surface with gentle grades from Mission Bridge to Page Road. The trail between Mission Bridge to Olund Trailhead also has a semi-firm surface. The trail continuing west past the treatment plant, through the First Nations reserve land to Douglas Taylor Park has steep sections with soft surfaces.
Mission Bridge Picnic Area Day Use Trail is 92 m long, 1.5 m wide and has a semi-firm surface with gentle slopes.

It has been so cold recently around Faversham that strange ice formations have been growing from the ground. In Badgins Wood, Plumford near Painters Forstal these fabulous "Ice Mushrooms" have formed. Porous pebbles such as these surface chalk fragments initially become covered in a crust of ice due to the moisture they contain. As the freezing process continues this "Pebble Ice" starts to form ice needles which grow vertically and over time a dome forms to produce the unique mushroom shape. These where popping up all along the path edges in Badgins Wood....
