I am a hobbyist photographer and my only desire here is to see and share art. No opinions, no politics, just eye candy.

San Francisco side of Golden Gate Bridge after sunset. To the far left you can see the "bridge-within-a-bridge," that was built so that Fort Point could be preserved. From Emeryville, California.

Sunset showing Eastern and Western Spans of Bay Bridge. In foreground, leaving from Oakland is a self-anchored suspension with straight light poles on the deck. At Yerba Buena Island changes to suspension bridge with graceful draped lit main cables.

A waning half moon sits in the early morning sky above downtown Seattle, seen from across Lake Union. The city lights are reflected in the water and on the left of the frame,  an old tugboat name Galene sits at rock with running lights glowing.

A Black-capped Chickadee strikes an intimidating stance β€” well, intimidating to other Chickadees β€” by puffing up and flaring the wing and tail feathers to look large and threatening.

Frost crystals catching light on delicate ferns, the one tall stem reaching up against pale skyβ€”the detail and texture work here is stunning. Shot entirely on a smartphone, which makes it even more impressive. #naturephotography

Orange, yellow, red sunset with partial view of bright yellow sun that is to right of the Bay Bridge Tower. Sky above is pale blue with streaks of white and dark gray fog.

Last night, a few minutes before sunset, you can barely see the sun that is almost below the San Francisco horizon.

The photograph shows a snow-covered park alley at dusk.

Time of Day: The photo was taken in the evening, the sky is gray and overcast.

Lighting: Streetlights glow along the alley, emitting a warm orange light.

Vegetation: The trees on both sides of the alley are bare, their branches covered in snow. Snow-covered conifers and small spruce trees are also visible to the right.

Surface: The ground and paths are completely covered in a thick layer of snow.

Atmosphere: The overall atmosphere is quiet, calm, and slightly melancholy, typical of a winter evening.

Details: Benches, also dusted with snow, line the alley. The outlines of other buildings and trees are visible in the distance.

What a patient and nice owl

I walked up slowly. Bothered it for 15 mins. Snapped some of the closest photos I will ever get of a burrowing owl

Responsibly left it to hang out on the beach! What a bird

It’s being in SoCal since December and persisted after 2 storms giant atmospheric rivers!

Enveloped in the intense glow of morning twilight, the magnificent Rio de las Vueltas river curves towards the majestic Mount Fitz Roy and Cerro Torre mountain ranges, dwarfed by towering clouds above.
