My wife took this gorgeous shot on our Sunday morning paddle. ❤️
A view from a hike along a ridge leading to Little Bald Knob in George Washington National Forest. Across the valley, the distinctive shape of Massanutten Mountain is visible. Shenandoah National Park sits behind it. #photography #naturephotography #landscape
This is the first time I've seen White Ibises in the nearby swamp. I've seen Glossy Ibises there in the past (seldom). There were a group of seven (?) Whites, including that darker juvenille in the background. #photography #naturephotography #birds #whiteibis #ibis
Had an agreement with the local bird union: take some leave some. The birds aren't holding up their end of the bargain. Years ago I bought a net to keep them from eating the berries. That seems silly now. I am trying to encourage visitation.
Looking east from Reddish Knob in George Washington National Forest, northwest of Staunton. The Shenandoah Valley appears in the distance. #photography #naturephotography #landscape
The local satellite image this morning said 'get out of bed' 😍 #photography #naturephotography #landscape
The earth never tires, The earth is rude, silent, incomprehensible at first, Nature is rude and incomprehensible at first, Be not discouraged, keep on, there are divine things well envelop'd, I swear to you there are divine things more beautiful than words can tell. -Walt Whitman
On this morning's exploration of Lake Tecumseh and surrounding canals, accompanied by an old friend. #photography #naturephotography #virginiabeach
