A black and white photo of a dead birch tree. Photographed from a low angle the birch tree shoots straight into the sky, leaning slightly to the right side of the frame. Only stubs remain of the once substantial branches, the top snapped off and long gone. The bottom of the birch tree surrounded by tall grass and barren bushes, a full health coniferous tree is just to the left and behind the birch tree in a perfect triangle, and further behind that some taller trees branches poke out. The sky, overcast.

A photo looking at what appears to be an old Co-op Agro building. There is a 1 story building with a flat roof in front of and attached to barn shaped building that is four stories with a green tin roof, that is in front of and attached to a 3 story building with a flat roof. The is a walkway coming from the top of the barn shaped building that goes across to the top of a group of at least 3 silos. The silos have a small 1 story building on top. The main buildings are all constructed out of brick that has been painted a cream colour and the silos are constructed with cinder blocks. This photo was taken from across a road and at an angle to the building, there are some wild flowers and grass in the foreground, and the buildings are surrounded by trees. The sky is a deep blue with a mix of thin streaky clouds and light fluffy cloud islands.

Photo of Arthur Ontario Canadas historic water tower. Going from the bottom of the image up: Across the bottom of the frame there is a slope of dark green recently cut grass with leaf litter throughout, sloping from the left of the image to the right. The slope and grass is not in focus. Past the grassy slope, a layer of trees, a mix of evergreen and deciduous trees. On the left of the frame from the top all the way to the grassy slope are branches from an evergreen tree stretching towards the center of the frame. Across the top stretching across the top right corner and down the right side of the frame the leafless branches from a deciduous tree stretching towards from the edges toward the center of the frame. In the middle framed by all of the tree branches and sticking up from behind the row of trees that is above the grassy slope, is the Arthur Historic Water Tower. The tower is painted military green, is a capsule shape with four legs supporting it, and a pointed cone roof at the top. Arthur is painted on the side of the capsule shape with black paint, only A R T H U is visible from the angle of this photo. The sky is visible behind the tower and is partially covered by clouds that stretch horizontally across the blue sky.
2024-11-15 - #ArthurOntario #WaterTower -Built in 1931. Arthur has been commemorated as #CanadasMostPatrioticVillage due to the villageβs contribution to #WW2, having the highest ratio of residence enlisted for similarly sized villages, and their successful war bond campaigns. #photography #photo

A photo taken at night from slightly above roof level, looking across the roof of a car wash. The roof is flat and covered in small gravel stones with several metal vent stacks sticking up from the roof. At the far end of the roof is a yellow brick chimney with a vertical oriented sign that reads Car Wash in blue text on a yellow background. Power lines cross the frame horizontally behind the chimney. You can barely make out the green leaves of trees behind that, and a nearly black sky.

Several tall skinny trees with very few leaves fill the frame, branches strewn in all directions. The trees and branches have small piles of snow on all of their surfaces that face the sky. Dark green evergreens make up the background.
Several tall skinny tree trunks with snow packed onto their side facing the camera. One tree, about one third of the way from the right of the frame has a large strip of bark missing revealing the beige/orange wood of the tree.
Several evergreens fill the frame, their trunks are all vertical, and their branches largely pointing out to the left and the right of the frame. Their needles covered in snow.
Photo of a cedar from the ground pointing up. The orange/red bark of the cedar stands out amongst the green pine needles and dull colours of the rest of the trees around it. The Frame is rotated so the vertical cedar tree goes from the bottom right corner to the top left on the frame.

2025-02-08 - Pileated Woodpecker - These are both larger and slightly more goofy looking than I expected. I think itβs the long skinny neck that makes them look awkward to me. Very cool to see them though. #birds #photography #woodpecker

It sure is, there was a lot of work put into that nest, by a lot of hornets. It was probably 1.5-2 feet tall! Iβm glad I came across it in the winter, wouldnβt have wanted to accidentally get on the wrong side of that hive.

A landscape photo showing Greenfield Aggregates, a quart, during winter. In the forgoing there is an office trailer sitting on a cement pad at the edge of a dig pit. Behind the trailer, is a hillside topped with trees, and a red tower behind that. Iβm unsure what the tower is, itβs got a single main post maybe a foot wide, with a platform covered in antennas on top, there are several more support posts going out from below the platform, back to the ground at about 45 degree angles.
