The ghost plant pop up From the drying forest duff Signaling summer #Photography #Haiku #MonochromeAndColor #Oregon # #TryonCreek #WildflowerPhotography #SpringPhotography #LandscapePhotography #MakeArtEveryDay #MakeToEscape

Monotropa uniflora, commonly known as ghost pipe or Indian pipe, is a unique, parasitic plant that lacks chlorophyll and appears white or pale pink, resembling a pipe or ghost. It gets nutrients indirectly from trees by tapping into the mycorrhizal fungi network, growing in shady forest understories. The plant has a single, bell-shaped flower and is known for its delicate nature, bruising easily to black, and has traditional medicinal uses for pain and anxiety, though it can be poisonous in large quantities.

Summer just shows up On the Willamette River. Sometimes halos too #Photography #Haiku #MonochromeAndColor #SunHalo #RiverPhotography #SpringPhotography #LandscapePhotography #OregonPhotography #Oregon #PNW #MakeArtEveryDay #MakeToEscape

$A sun halo (or 22° halo) is a bright, white, or occasionally colored ring appearing around the Sun, caused by sunlight refracting through, or reflecting off, millions of tiny hexagonal ice crystals suspended in high-altitude cirrus or cirrostratus clouds. They often indicate incoming moisture and weather changes.$ $A sun halo (or 22° halo) is a bright, white, or occasionally colored ring appearing around the Sun, caused by sunlight refracting through, or reflecting off, millions of tiny hexagonal ice crystals suspended in high-altitude cirrus or cirrostratus clouds.
