The setting sun shines over a hill, illuminating a rocky, overgrown coastal landscape. In the background, you can see the sea with small rocky offshore islands.
Some drippy winter blossoms having a time trying to lift their heads, but still add a cheerful note to a very rainy #MorningDogWalk #PhotoMonday#FotoMontag
A group of tiny daffodil blossoms with bright yellow petals covered in raindrops. The weight of the water is weighing each bloom down so we can't see their open faces. The deep green leaves however stand perfectly upright in the background.
Close-up of a piece of wood against a black background. The wood has not been sawn, but broken naturally, so the fibres are of varying lengths. The longitudinal grain of the wood is clearly visible. Only a small spot in the centre of the image is in sharp focus. The rest is blurred and dissolves into black. This creates great depth and plasticity.
Ein leuchtender Vollmond erscheint hinter der dunklen Silhouette eines Waldes. Um den Mond herum bilden sich irisierende Wolken, die ein Spektrum von warmen Orange- und Rottönen bis hin zu kühlen Blau- und Weisstönen zeigen. Diese seltene atmosphärische Erscheinung schafft eine dramatische und mystische Nachtlandschaft.
Baum ohne Laub steht auf einem Feld. An seinen Stamm ist ein Hochsitz mit Metallleiter angelehnt. Im Hintergrund schauen Baumkronen über den Horizont. Die Ferne versinkt im Dunst.
Photo from yesterday. Pictures from Monday's little Ragnarök rehearsal will take a while, though. Many of those are complex panoramas, some wider than 180°. Takes time that is currently demanded elsewhere.
Front of an old hut on a frozen field. Light trails from a street further away a visible due to long exposure. Above the night sky lit up by a warm coloured rainbow aurora: reds, violets and yellows are dominant.
Panoramas from last week's unreal #aurora event are finally done and will be posted here every #FotoMontag.
Starting with the tame ones, before the show really took off.
edit: wording.
Next bunch of Jan19 #aurora pictures for #FotoMontag: I would have gone home a happy bunny just getting images like the first one. The shock front of CMEs rarely causes the most visually stunning parts of a storm (especially down here in Central Europe). But then the sky cracked like an egg and became a silent concert of color and movement.
Moxxi the corgi is sleeping on a beige bean bag. Her body is mostly on the bean bag but her head is down on the edge of the bean bag. Her nose is squished on the plywood floor in a very uncomfortable looking way.
A close-up shot of a sparrow with a bright orange cap, a black mask, and two small white "headlights" or "false eyes" in the mask to match a white throat. Look close, you can see birb is cracking a seed. This is the ever-popular Chestnut-capped Brushfinch which has a very large range in the Neotropics. I can't remember when or where I first met birb, but this photo was taken at La Florida, CO. Nov 2025. Photo by Peachfront.
