“Sand Dune Abstract” — Sand dune patterns in evening light, Death Valley.

I first photographed this specific subject in Death Valley well over a decade ago, and perhaps closer to two decades. I “discovered” it by accident while driving back from visiting an entirely different feature. I had stopped in this location to photograph other things, and as I scanned the landscape I noticed this section of almost pure sand dunes. I went here again this year at the end of February when the light on my intended subject died early, and I thought I might be able to work with the soft light in this spot…continues: gdanmitchell.com/2025/03/16/sa

The last lot of photos from our week around the East Neuk of Fife.

This area is Fife Ness, the easternmost point of the East Neuk of Fife. There's a lot of golfing to be had here, but we were more interested in the beachs and rocks around this gorgeous coastline iancylkowski.com/blog/2025/3/1

A rugged rocky outcrop at Fife Ness in the East Neuk of Fife, Scotland. The large boulders exhibit a warm reddish-brown hue, with some areas showing greenish tinges, possibly from algae or lichen. The rocks are irregularly shaped and weathered, creating a textured surface. In the foreground, fine white sand curves around the base of the rocks, with gentle wave patterns etched into it by the tide. The background reveals a tranquil sea, reflecting a clear blue sky, while hints of grassy hills can be seen in the distance.

The foreground features large, flat rocks with intricate, wavy patterns etched into their surfaces, displaying shades of dark brown and grey. Some areas are adorned with patches of green, hinting at moss or seaweed. In the background, the sea glistens under the sunlight, with gentle waves lapping at the rocky shore. Additional boulders can be seen scattered across the water, contributing to the natural, untamed beauty of the coastal scene.

The textured surface of the rocks exhibits a variety of colours, including grey, orange, and soft pink, with fluid, wavy patterns that suggest natural erosion over time. A shallow pool of water, tinted with green, is nestled among the rocks, reflecting the sunlight and the surrounding landscape. In the background, the sea stretches out towards the horizon, merging seamlessly with a clear blue sky, enhancing the serene yet rugged coastal atmosphere.

The foreground features an array of large, weathered rocks, characterised by their layered texture and shades of brown, grey, and orange. Some sections are smooth, while others exhibit deep grooves and ridges, creating a dramatic interplay of light and shadow. A small pool of water reflects the surrounding landscape, adding a touch of serenity to the otherwise rugged terrain. In the background, the calm sea meets a clear blue sky, enhancing the natural beauty of this coastal scene.

Scarlet and Blossom

Spring is almost here—just four days away! This image, taken last spring, showcases a northern cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) and a crepe myrtle flower, both vying to bring a splash of brightness to the day.

Explore stunning images of cardinals and other vibrant members of the Cardinalidae family by visiting my photo gallery here:

The image features a stunning red cardinal resting on a delicate branch. Its vivid red feathers and black face mask are beautifully detailed. In the foreground, bright pink flowers, fully in bloom, take center stage, adding an air of elegance. The green, blurred background enhances the contrast, making the cardinal and flowers stand out brilliantly. This harmonious scene captures the essence of nature’s vibrant charm.

when #ecosystems thrive, they protect us—absorbing #floods, softening #heatwaves, keeping #disease in check. #forests, #wetlands, #reefs, and #grasslands act as nature’s safety net, holding everything in #balance. but when we destroy them, we unravel the very systems keeping us alive. ⁠
⁠
by protecting #nature, we protect ourselves. every #tree, every #river, every #species is part of the web that holds our world together. if we want a future, we have to fight for it.

The inspiration for this handmade watercolor painting comes from a visit to Hochfelln in the Bavarian Alps in Germany on a beautiful sunny late summer day where the surrounding mountains were gently bathed in various shades of blue.

View from the Top of the Mountain is a hand-painted watercolor painting by artist Karen Kaspar in landscape format. From the mountain summit, the viewer's gaze sweeps over the surrounding mountain ranges of the Bavarian Alps. The tranquil landscape features multiple layers of mountains that gradually fade from rich greens in the foreground to softer blues in the background, giving a sense of depth. The colors merge and create a calm, natural and peaceful atmosphere. Looking at the painting invites you to relax and calms your mind and soul.

Fast Thunder Cloud
135mm
This fast moving Thunder Cloud caught up the sun much faster than I thought, so I could not reach to the spot that I wanted, I had to stop and find the best possible place. For Landscape Photography you can use nearly any focal length Lens, here I used a 135mm Lens to "cut" out the most important part of the Landscape
