Ptarmigan Ridge Trail, seen here in the distance, is one of my all time favorite hikes. Looking forward to getting back up there in a few weeks when the fall colors make the landscape look almost surreal.

Mount Baker rises above a sprawling alpine basin beneath a low ceiling of gray clouds. Streaks of late-season snow cling to the mountain and surrounding ridges, while rust-colored rock, pale scree, and bands of green meadow break up the rugged terrain below. A faint trail threads across the open slopes before disappearing toward the darker evergreen forest in the foreground.

Looking out over the North Cascades while low clouds pool in the valleys below.

#pnw #photography #clouds #fog #landscape #landscapephotography #weather #mountains
Tall, wind-shaped evergreens rise from a high mountain slope in the North Cascades beneath a heavy gray sky. Beyond them, rugged ridges fade into the distance while a thick blanket of low cloud fills the valley below, curling between dark forested mountains.

Mount Shuksan playing hide-and-seek with the clouds again.

#BlueSkyMonday #MountainMonday #pnw #photography #mountains #clouds #landscape #northcascades
Mount Shuksan rises beyond a small mountain lake and dense evergreen forest, its snowfields and jagged dark rock partly swallowed by fast-moving summer clouds. Sunlit firs stand sharply in the foreground while the mountain fades in and out of mist beneath a deep blue sky.

A stunning view from Iceberg Lake this week. I could have sat and watched the clouds all day, and nearly did.

#Stunday #pnw #photography #lake #clouds #bluesky #landscape #nature
A towering cumulus cloud billows above a quiet alpine lake, its bright white shape reflected almost perfectly in the blue water below. Dark evergreens crowd the rocky shoreline, framing the cloud and its reflection while gentle ripples soften the mirrored sky across the lake’s surface.

The Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest is looking quite nice this time of year. Crisp air and subtle color changes made for a beautiful hike this week.

#ForestFriday #scape #pnw #trees #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #nature
A quiet alpine pond tucked into the North Cascades mirrors a dense wall of evergreens and a pale, rocky slope rising along the far shore. Moss-covered stones and low mountain shrubs crowd the water’s edge, while a narrow trail winds past boulders on the left and disappears into the forest. Sunlight catches the treetops beneath a vivid blue sky, with soft white clouds drifting overhead and their reflections broken across the rippling water.

Soaking up the fleeting September light in the mountains while the weather cooperates. 🏔️☀️🌲

#pnw #photography #nature #landscape #mountains #cascades #landscapephotography #naturephotography
A quiet alpine pond in the North Cascades reflects tall evergreen trees and patches of bright cloud, with gray boulders and low mountain vegetation lining the shore. Rugged, partly snow-covered peaks rise through the trees in the distance beneath a deep blue sky.

#WaterfallWednesday, with a little extra scenery thrown in. I spent the day yesterday soaking up September in the North Cascades, and it couldn't have been a more perfect day.

Looking out across the Salish Sea from Goose Rock on Whidbey Island, with late-summer grasses underfoot and a whole collection of clouds drifting through a ridiculously blue sky.

#BlueSkyMonday #bluesky #pnw #photography #landscape #seascape #clouds
A sweeping view across the Salish Sea from a rocky, lichen-covered hillside, with dry golden grasses and exposed stone in the foreground. Forest and scattered homes spread below toward the shoreline, while calm blue water reaches to the distant horizon beneath a vivid blue sky filled with layered clouds and one large, bright white cloud overhead.

I'm always fascinated by the many small islands here in Washington, and this one in particular always catches my eye when I hike Goose Rock.

I'm actually moving to Camano Island next month, so I'm really excited about all of the new photo opportunities.

#Stunday #pnw #island #seascape #bluesky
A small, wooded island in the Pacific Northwest sits beneath a wide blue sky streaked with soft white clouds. Evergreen forest covers most of the island, while two homes hug the shoreline, including one perched high on a sun-bleached rocky bluff above a narrow dock. Deep blue-green water fills the foreground, giving the scene a quiet, distinctly coastal PNW feel.

It's September, and that means we're heading into mushroom season. This little fungi was a nice find after some much needed rain last week.

#BNWmacro #macro #mushroom #fungi #photography #nature #BlueSkyArtShow #minimal #forestfloor
Black-and-white macro photograph of a tiny mushroom rising from the forest floor, its delicate bell-shaped cap etched with fine vertical ridges and dusted with countless sparkling droplets or crystals. The pale stem emerges from dark, textured soil while the background dissolves into soft, shadowy blur, giving the mushroom an almost luminous presence against the surrounding darkness.

Pacific Northwest forests have a way of making scale feel completely different. Ferns and moss at your feet, old trunks rising straight through the canopy, and just enough light filtering in to show how dense everything really is.

#ForestFriday #scape #trees #photography #nature #naturephotography
Looking up through a dense Pacific Northwest forest, towering evergreens rise from a steep, rocky slope carpeted with ferns, moss, and fallen needles. A massive weathered trunk stands near the center, surrounded by darker conifers, while soft sunlight filters through the high canopy and catches patches of green along the forest floor.

One of those coastlines that gets better the longer you look at it. Dark evergreens crowding the bluff, weathered rock dropping into the water, mountains stretched across the horizon, and clouds rolling in with that muted coastal light settling over everything.

#pnw #photography #seascape #beach
A rugged Pacific Northwest shoreline stretches beneath a sweeping, stormy sky, with weathered rocks and patches of green seaweed spilling into the cold gray-blue water. Across the small bay, a rocky headland rises sharply from the shore, thick with dark evergreens and a wood building tucked quietly among the trees. Low mountains fade across the horizon beneath shifting layers of cloud, while breaks of blue sky and soft light give the scene a wild, unsettled coastal feel.

The sandstone at Larrabee State Park might be more interesting up close than the big coastal views. Layers of rock worn into honeycombs, cavities, and smooth flowing shapes by a very long conversation with the sea.

#RockinTuesday #TidesOutTuesday #pnw #photography #beach #seascape #rocks #nature
At Larrabee State Park in Washington, weathered sandstone formations carved into smooth curves, hollows, and honeycomb-like pockets rise above the rocky shoreline at low tide. Pale tan stone fills the foreground, with a quiet cove and dense evergreen forest beyond beneath a soft, overcast sky.

There are plenty of reasons to hike in the North Cascades, but views like this make a pretty convincing argument all by themselves.

#MountainMonday #BlueSkyMonday #photography #pnw #mountains #landscape #landscapephotography #hiking
A narrow alpine trail winds along a green, wildflower-dotted mountainside toward the snow-covered slopes of Mount Baker, where drifting clouds wrap around the summit and spill across the glaciers. Dark evergreen trees frame the hillside to the right, while patches of blue sky break through the broad summer cloud cover overhead.

A firey sunset makes for a beautiful #Stunday. I can't believe how quickly the sun is starting to set earlier and earlier, so I'm savoring the sunsets while I can.

#pnw #photography #sunset #landscape #landscapephotography #sky #clouds #summer
A fiery sunset spreads across the Skagit Valley, with the low sun casting golden light over distant fields and waterways. Dark evergreen-covered hills fill the foreground, while layered mountain silhouettes stretch across the horizon beneath dramatic gray clouds glowing orange along their edges.

Summer in the mountains doesn’t get much better than this. Forested valleys, rugged ridgelines, lingering snow, and clouds rolling through a bright blue sky.

#BlueSkyArtShow #summer #pnw #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #washington #mountains #nature
A sweeping summer mountain view in the North Cascades framed by towering evergreens, with dense green forest dropping into a deep valley below. Rugged ridgelines rise on both sides, streaked with lingering patches of snow, while bright white clouds drift through a vivid blue sky above.

The warm summer days in the valley are rapidly winding down and I have mixed feelings about that. Is it just me, or is it crazy that we're only a few days away from September already?

#summer #pnw #meadow #wildflowers #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #washington
A sunlit meadow stretches toward the foothills, where a narrow green path slips between wildflowers and young trees before disappearing into the forest. Beyond it, densely wooded mountains rise in overlapping ridges, their slopes shifting from bright spring green to deep evergreen beneath a huge blue sky crowded with luminous white clouds.

A house on the rocks, a boat at the dock, thick forest rising behind it, and a foggy shoreline fading into the distance. I always find this house fascinating when I hike past it.

#TidesOutTuesday #RockinTuesday #pnw #photography #seascape #architecture #landscape
A weathered white house sits high on a rocky, golden-grass-covered point above a quiet coastal inlet, surrounded by dense evergreen forest. A small dock and boat rest at the water’s edge below, while mist softens the tree-covered shoreline in the distance beneath an overcast sky.

Mount Baker spent most of the morning negotiating with the clouds. Every so often the summit would begin to appear, but the mountain was shy and settled on wearing a cloud hat the entire time I was up there.

#MountainMonday #clouds #photography #pnw #landscape #monochrome #nature #washington
Mount Baker rises beyond a rugged sweep of dark, rocky ridges and lingering summer snowfields, its broad glacier-covered slopes disappearing into a heavy ceiling of low storm clouds. A sheer cliff topped with a thin line of evergreens anchors the left side of the scene, while the subdued black-and-white tones emphasize the mountain’s layered textures and brooding weather.

Happy #Stunday from the dreamy Oregon coast.

#pnw #waterfall #seascape #photography #landscape #landscapephotography #oregon #nature
A slender waterfall spills down a moss-covered basalt cliff into the churning Pacific on the Oregon Coast, framed by the deep shadow of a rocky coastal alcove. Beyond the falls, waves break against rugged headlands while a small white lighthouse stands in the distance beneath a soft blue sky.

Something different today highlighting some #chaos for #BlueSkyArtShow. When I'm not taking photos of nature, I like to experiment with smoke. Constantly changing, and no two moments are ever the same.

#smoke #art #abstract #blackandwhite #photography #creativephotography #symmetry #classicmono
A symmetrical abstract composition of pale white smoke against a deep black background, mirrored into intricate, ghostlike forms that resemble wings, horns, and a strange masked face at the center. Fine translucent ribbons curl outward on both sides, while brighter folds of smoke gather around the middle, giving the image an eerie, almost otherworldly presence.

This is the kind of forest that makes “green” feel wildly inadequate. Moss, ferns, cedar, fir, maple, all layered together from the riverbank to the mountainside.

#ForestFriday #scape #pnw #photography #river #forest #landscape #nature #northcascades
A rushing mountain river winds through a dense Pacific Northwest forest, framed by tall evergreens, moss-covered trunks, and thick stands of sword ferns. In the distance, dark ridgelines streaked with lingering snow rise beneath towering white clouds and patches of bright blue sky.

At first glance, you might call this a bee or wasp. Look closer and the disguise starts to fall apart. This is a hoverfly, a harmless pollinator with huge compound eyes, a single pair of wings and some remarkably convincing yellow-and-black mimicry.

#photography #macro #insects #wildlife #nature
A yellow-and-black hoverfly clings to the curling blue stamens of a pale flower, its enormous rust-red compound eyes and iridescent green thorax rendered in striking macro detail. Delicate transparent wings stretch across the frame, while tiny grains of pollen dust the surrounding blue filaments.

#WaterfallWednesday Oregon coast edition. Not exactly the traditional version, but when the Pacific comes crashing over the rocks and pours back toward the sea in a hundred little cascades, I think it counts.

#pnw #oregon #seascape #waves #rocks #landscape #photography #landscapephotography
Powerful surf crashes across a rugged stretch of the Oregon coast, sending white spray high above dark volcanic rocks. Seawater spills over the broad, seaweed-covered ledges in dozens of small cascades, while vivid green algae brightens the tide pools in the foreground beneath a moody blue-gray sky.
