Bright green pine needles catch the late winter sun with the brown bark of the trees and dead leaves blanketing the ground in brown offering contrast to the mossy green wood of a foot bridge.

The path to Spring. A beautiful sunny day for a walk at Oak Openings Preserve Metropark, until the snow came. #nature #hiking #trees #oakopenings

Thin white clouds with blue ribs at the edge of a curving dark blue cloud that hides the sun. Pinks and yellows filter through near the horizon, and darkened riverbanks lined with underbrush and trees guard the wavy water of river in this sunset photo.

End of day. Sunset yesterday before the storms on the Maumee River. #sunset #maumeeriver

Light brown sand on a beach turns dark brown where it meets blue water. White icebergs rise above the expanse of the lake under a clear blue sky.

Erie icebergs. Grounded icebergs in Lake Erie melt as temperatures reach record highs. The beach of Sheldon Marsh State Nature Preserve lies in the foreground. #nature #winter #icebergs #lakeerie #ohio

A dead uprooted and weathered tree seems to be reaching upwards towards an alive but leafless tree limb that appears to be reached downward. They are on the edge of calm water with a row of leafless trees beyond in this black and white photo.

Reaching. Before the green of Spring on a bright sunny day at the Sheldon Marsh State Nature Preserve. #nature #spring #trees #blackandwhite

The is painted in light purple, orange, yellow, and red with the river flowing in  a golden hue, well after sundown. The silhouetted trees stand silently along the riverbanks and path.

Walking home. The departing sun leaves a quiet gift behind. #sunset #nature #maumeeriver #ohio

Trees, both straight and curled, disappear in a fog along a river in this black and white photo.

Out in the fog. The unknown lurks beyond. #nature #fog #hiking #blackandwhite

Two Canada Geese rest in a pond where trees are reflected in calm water, and small waves seem to form a sky above in this black and white photo.

Geese in the upsidedown. A pond partially rippled and the reflection of trees twists reality a bit. Photographed I. The Wintergarden/St. John’s Woods Nature Preserve in Bowling Green, OH. #nature #birds #winter #blackandwhite #hiking

A river with small ripples flows between silhouetted banks covered in trees. The blue sky fades to yellow at the horizon with small puffy clouds looking a pale yellow and gray in the dimming light of this sunset photo.

Quiet rising at sundown. The birds find their evening roosts and the squirrels curl in their nests bring a peace along the river near winter’s end. #sunset #nature #maumeeriver #ohio #hiking

Light brown fan shaped fungus lobes with black patches bend over each other as they weather over a winter season.

Weathered fungus. Found on the side of a tree. #nature #fungus

The sun is seen through the trees as a glowing orange ball and the sky is orange with bands of orange clouds. Water of the river reflects the orange light in this sunset photo.

Simply orange. The orange sun drops through the trees as it sets in early March along the Maumee River. #sunset #nature #trees #maumeeriver #ohio

A pale white full moon rises through thin clouds. Trees bathed in golden light from the setting sun line the riverbank below. Blue water, rippled and calm, passes by a shrubbery in the foreground. Above, silhouetted tree branches hang over the scene in this moonrise photo.

Worm Moon rising. Tonight along the Maumee River. #moon #nature
