Morning scenery. Red-orange clouds up in the sky and orange clouds along the horizon. There is a wide opening between the clouds and blue sky is showing. Landscape in silhouette.

Macro of raindrops on an unfurled yellow and lavender crocus. The petal striations are apparent on the front flower. The raindrops are reflecting the colours of the flower with a little bit of green leaf.

Two morning glory blooms in different stages of opening. One is in a tightly closed swirl, the other is just starting to open at the center.

Vertical photograph of what must be several blossoming flowers of yellow buttercup in the foreground, captured against the setting sun behind a lake. At the horizon, behind the river, are the silhouettes of trees, and in the immediate foreground are some blades of grass. There are several layers in the photo, which makes it a bit harder to describe, I'm sorry.

in the change of the seasons,
I found a glimpse of faith,
where it seemed long gone.

Photograph of what must be one little strand of snowberry, covered in bright green leaves, captured against the setting sun. The light really illuminates the leaves, and emphasises the structures. The corners and frames are fairly dark.

Looking South across the waters of a sea loch towards the hills of North Harris on the horizon. The loch is battleship grey and the landscape is muted shades of brown and green.
In the sky to the left angry clouds from a squall that has just passed fill the view. The squall leaves behind a turbulent sky with patches of blue, the clouds are tinged with orange from the low Autumn Sun

A bee has its head deep into a purple flower, but the petals split in a way you can see its entire eye and side of the body.   Background is pure gray.

I picked up an adapter to try out some old four thirds lenses on a modern MFT camera since I picked up several for my Olympus DSLR.

This was taken with a very old and very sticky Olympus 50-200mm, and I love it very much. 🐝🌞

The back side of a dahlia with the sun shining through. They named this variety Pooh because of the colors. Pooh Bear is yellow and he wears a red shirt. This beautiful dahlia is exactly those two colors.

a small section of bubble pond's shallow shoreline with rocks and reeds on a still, overcast morning, the water was a perfect mirror reflecting Cadillac Mountain (left slope) and Mt. Pemetic (right slope) uniting in a natural parabola
