Central Arkansas photographer exploring nature, light, and place. Prefer nature over noise; trees over traffic; fields over buildings. Skeptical of spectacle. Hate sauerkraut, love dogs (the furry 4-legged kind).

Some more foggy autumnal trees from this morning. Such lovely conditions :)

#Fog #Berkhamsted #AwesomeFoursome
A silver birch in the middle with white trunk, lots of nice yellow leaves, and some fog in sunny light. Before sunrise a foggy-ish scene with a smattering of yellow leaves and some orange and green ferns. Backlit woodland scene with a path to the right and some bushes covered in cobwebs. Lovely pendulous silver birch side-lit by the sun and a bit foggy. Touches of yellow leaves.

"The best images often come from what we didn’t plan or expect. It isn’t that planning is useless; it’s that, given the chance, the world has better ideas and a more expansive imagination than we’ll ever have."

A black and white photograph of a foggy field with round hay bales resting on the grass. Heavy mist fills the background, softening the silhouette of trees on the right edge of the frame.

Old blue truck out at the mines, and a friendly tip that you can turn off Adobe Photoshop's new 'ai assist' toolbar nonsense in Settings > Interface.

Take it easy, it's only Wednesday.

A quaint scene of an old barn and a 1950s blue pickup truck behind a fence. The hills, which are alive with the sound of music, rise up to fill the frame in the background.
