Happy Monday! It's a new week! A combination of diffused clouds and a high tide amplified by the full moon led to a very dynamic sunrise with a lot of texture in the sky, water and sand. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

A rare white aurora borealis lit up the night sky over Wonder Lake in Alaska yesterday ✨, creating a stunning and unforgettable scene 🌌.
This extraordinary display hadn’t appeared in the area for quite some time.

Welcome to #Stunday!

Being at the Red Canyon Visitor Center (Flaming Gorge #Utah) during a colorful stormy #sunset is a treat for the eyes and lens.

One of my series of #Maui #sunsets from last month, in the Ka'anapali area. This came closer to the tail end of a long unwinding show, of which I've shown a few differently colored views in the past several weeks.

Howling about BIG news! A generous donor is now matching all donations up to $50k through year-end! That means every dollar you give to the WCC between now and Dec. 31 will have twice the power to protect wolves.🐺

Tamped down hiking trail the ends at a lake and emerges between evergreen trees. The lake is blue and is reflecting the snowy mountains behind. The mountains have nice jagged peaks that lead to the party cloudy sky.

Happy Wednesday! We are halfway through the week! We had a nice sunrise from the preshow to the ripple today and out of five sequential contenders this one took the vote at the coffee shop. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

The finale of one night's #sunset in #Maui recently, seen from the lit up grounds of the resort where we were staying.

There are several places you can pull off on the road between June Lake & Mammoth Lakes along Hwy 395 in the eastern #Sierra & #crosscountryski on public lands roads, some of them groomed, & some not. This area is an example.
