My Favourite part of the day, that short period near the end of blue hour & just before the sun rises over the horizon
Thursday evening we watched an incredible sunset that was quite different from our usual. The focus was on the movement of the sun's position in relation to the church steeple rather that the changing sky hues.
I'm posting a series of 4 photos to cover the transitions.
As night turns to day and land meets the sea, I am reminded of the ever changing nature of our existence. But if I'm being honest, I thought a long exposure would create an ethereal effect with the granite outcroppings along the shores of Pacific Grove.

Class 45 D123 “Leicestershire and Derbyshire Yeomanry” Built at Crewe in 1961 facing the soon to be redundant steam locomotive. A recreation of a scene that would have happened in 1968. This happily is the GCR railway where both Steam and Diesel have been preserved to working order.

Ice and snow slowly transition to liquid water in a small, shallow tarn high above the Innvikfjorden and the town of Loen, Norway.
The climb up a different fjord on the previous day was significant enough that some in our party balked at repeating the effort so soon on its heels, so on this day we elected to plonk down our kroners and enjoy an effortless ride to the top of the Innvikfjorden via the Loen Skylift. The Skylift is a large gondola supported by only two towers, one at the beginning and one at the end. On the ride up, the angle of the lines is such that one is essentially hauled straight up a good portion of the cliff, providing quite a sensation of the heights. The top of the Skylift has a restaurant with an extraordinary view, and a ledge frequented by people wearing squirrel wingsuits to launch into the void, for what must be the mother of all adrenaline rushes. We witnessed several people preparing to make the leap, and I cannot say I was inspired to attempt such foolishness myself.
Seeking adventures on a somewhat less exciting scale, I had it in mind to walk up one of the peaks that is several kilometers from the top of the Skylift. Not long after setting off, we encountered more or less continuous snow cover, and it was clear that the route to the peak I wanted to ascend was steep and snowy enough that it would be dangerous without axe and crampons. Lacking such helpful instruments, I noticed a rock band that looked possible to climb up and around the steepest of the snow, but my wife put her foot down firmly and informed me she was not at all interested in such things, but that I was welcome to head up myself if I wanted. My two boys also demurred. Feeling that common sense might be percolating through the rest of my family, I gave up the idea and we set our sights on a somewhat closer, and reasonably safer overlook in a different direction. Along the way I discovered this small tarn, and I was captivated by the abrupt phase transition from solid to liquid that divides the frame.
Many of the birds had transitioned to winter plumage like this one,but a few where why hurry and still in transition.

At the crossroads of where Sun meets Snow, and Autumn meets winter.
Just back from a wonderful trip to Glacier NP and the Canadian rockies. Wanted to capture some shots that are not necessarily iconic but celebrate those special moments when light favors us light chasers.

it's begun: the slow unveiling of autumn. a few colored leaves; cooler nights; cricket choirs. there's still heat during the day and the light lingers, but there's a feeling of transition. this time between summer and fall is my favorite part of the year.
There were a few Chipping sparrows that overwintered at the park. It's interesting watching them transition into breeding plumage.
Fall to Winter,
the days grow short,
and sunlight more rare
Every splash of light
through the cloud shrouded sky
lifts the spirits
for a moment.
Giving thanks for those moments.

Sometimes, whilst 'cycling' the various presets in Lightroom, one will change the image just enough for me to say....."That'll do nicely" :)
This shot is of the locally famous "Rihanna Tree"......so named because it featured in the video for "We Found Love" and whilst making the video, the farmer asked her to get off his land as she was inappropriately dressed!! :)
