I miss the person I was before, too. I don't like being filled with so much rage all the time.

A small, vividly colored hummingbird with iridescent purple and blue feathers perches on a textured branch. Its head is dark, almost black, and it has a long bill and it's sticking its tongue out.

In this black and white portrait formatted landscape captures a road that disappears into sunlit fog. The road leads to the middle of the composition from the foreground, and trees enclose the rest of the space of the image. There's a tunneling effect from the trees arching over the road and a sense of depth in the varying shades of black and gray as they move further into the distance with atmospheric perspective. At the point that the road disappears there is a curve which gives a sense of the road turning into trees, and that adds a sense of mystery to the image.

I needed this reminder today. So I'm putting it back out there for the other weird ones who also need reminding.

A Tiger Lily with orange, downward-facing flowers adorned with dark, prominent spots resembling a tiger's coat. It has six long off white filaments with dark rust colored anthers coming out of the throat. Multiple flowers are on a dark stem with green leaves against a background of blurred flowers and foliage.

A pretty little tumbling creek along the trail on this morning’s #hike - just a few minutes after I took this photo a great horned #owl swooped out of a tree just overhead and about gave me a heart attack! Pretty cool thoughβ€¦πŸ¦‰

Looking up in a redwood forest, sun peeking through. Lots of light and shadow.

Right now in my garden, the echinacea are tall and glorious and in full bloom. Image of a close-up of these beautiful pink flowers with their distinctive spiky rusty red interiors that the pollinators can’t resist.
