Snowy and glowing landscape view in lapland

Foto im Querformat. Der Blick geht über eine recht dürre Wiese, die noch mit Herbstlaub bedeckt ist. Im Blickfeld stehen mehrere kahle Bäume. Der Himmel ist klar, links oben ist der untere Rand der Sonne zu sehen. Trotz des blauen Himmels wirkt das Bild ein wenig trübe.

Black and white photo of small fet underwater. Ripples on water surface distort their view and that of tiny fish simming around them.

Snowy and glowing landscape view in lapland

Handheld macro shot of small cup-shaped fungi (Lachnella sp.) growing in clusters on a wet, dark, decaying twig. Each fruiting body has a dark brown to black central disc surrounded by a dense fringe of white 'hairs'. The background is black. I focus stacked 19 images for this shot.

Close-up of two blue cylindrical tanks topped with thick, smooth layers of fresh snow against a white, snowy background.

A color night photo of the Milky Way. The photo features a large lake in the foreground and on the right with distant mountains in the background. A small piece of land sticks out from the left with a single conifer tree growing on it. The bright band of stars that make up the Milky Way are visible behind and to the right of the tree. There's the warm glow of a distant city on the horizon behind the mountains on the right.

A partially disarrayed spider web stung with dew drops like pearls, some larger some smaller. The camera is close up so that only part of the web is visible and behind it is a very foggy sunrise without shapes just subtle variations of light grey. Each drop shines against it like a jewel.

A granite doorway in a stone building. The doorway has two uprights with a groove cut on the inner edge. Across the top of the doorway are two more stones, cut on the inside to form an arch and square on the outside. These also have a groove cut on their inner edge, eight-pointed stars or flowers in the corners and the date of 1705 running across the joint between the two pieces. Perhaps surprisingly, the numbers are not carved two each side but 170 on the left and 5 on the right. Within the doorway is a plank door with iron studs, handle and lock. The doorway is set within walls made of mostly granite laid in regular courses with thick mortar between. To either side are metal handrails and to the left is the edge of a window. Strong sun casts dark shadows within the doorway. This doorway is on the south side of Meavy Church, Dartmoor, Devon.

A dark figure walking away from us in a snowy landscape, with a cluster of large dark rocks in the foreground on the left, and a few dark trees at the crest of a hill in the distance. The sky above is blue, with just a hint of bright sun at the upper edge.

A black and white landscape photo of the inside of a cave. There are large boulders in the foreground and on the right. A six steps wooden ladder is on the right leading form the floor of the cave to a shelf in the back. The roof of the cave is covered in soot from decades of fires built by prehistoric Native people. The soot has light colored patterns in it that look like fern leaves possibly due to the growth of a fungus or mold.

A scene of beautiful decay: a maple leaf's lacy blond veins are almost all that remains of the leaf. It is decaying on a log, with moss growing through part of it, and wood grain showing through as if the leaf were a sheer curtain. Other, more solid and brown dead leaves litter tge bottom of the image.
