- A grumpy-looking Great Horned #Owl makes #EyeContact from its nest space, wondering (I like to think) what all the commotion is about below (answer - a passing group of birders had spotted it!). #BirdOfTheDay #photography #wildlife #bird
- A #cold wintry scene at Franklin Falls, near Snoqualmie Pass, from a few years back. The rocks to get down to the plunge pool were like glass! #BlueSkyArtShow #photography #waterfall #pnw
- #One photographer seeks solitude from the workshop crowd and stands awaiting dawn’s first light. #BlueSkyArtShow #photography #landscape #silhouette
- A small mushroom, possibly a moss bell or hooded bell, rises above a #vibrant bed of moss. Three shot #macro focus stack. #blueskyartshow #photography #closeup #fungi #nature
- New Year’s Eve moon rising over Mount Baker (Kulshan) in the northern Cascades. 830nm #infrared capture. #mountainmonday #photography #monochrome #landscape #pnw
- For #Stunday, a short-eared #owl hunting low in the grasses at Samish in the #pnw. #photography #birds #wildlife #nature
- A majestic Roosevelt #Elk in the #Hoh Rainforest gets a little too interested in me for my comfort, even with a long lens. Thankfully he got bored and wandered off! #BlueSkyArtShow #openhouse #nature #wildlife #photography
- For #mountainmonday the summit of Ama Dablam, wreathed in clouds at sunset, taken while en-route to #Everest base camp. #photography #landscape #nepal #himalaya

- A rough-legged hawk, readying itself to strike after detecting sound or motion in the grasses below. #birds #birdphotography #hawk #nature #wildlife #pnw
- I think this meets today’s #sky theme for the #BlueSkyArtShow. The #aurora appearing to arc over the wing of a jet. #photography #airplane #northernlights #auroraborealis #nightsky
- An alternative take for today’s #BlueSkyArtShow. Standing on Sourdough Ridge overlooking Sunrise Park at Mt #Rainier (Tahoma), I always feel so #small gazing at the peak and the Milky Way beyond. #photography #landscape #nationalpark #nightsky
- #Evening at the Marin headland overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge. #BlueSkyArtShow #photography #landscape
- Early #autumn colors reflected in the calm waters of the Middle Fork of the Snoqualmie River. #BlueSkyArtShow #photography #landscape #fall #pnw
- A US #coastguard boat exercising in heavy swells off of First Beach, La Push last weekend. Mesmerizing watching them chilling in the surf! #photography #stunday #pnw #storm
- For #ForestFriday, a stand of trees, taken during fall, alongside the middle fork of the Snoqualmie river. #photography #fall #landscape
- Another one for #TheRoad, #California Redwoods tower over the roadway on a great drive through #Humboldt #Redwoods State Park. #BlueSkyArtShow #photography #landscape
- #TheRoad to #Everest crosses several high passes in #Tibet, switchbacking laboriously up and down each side. At the Gawu La pass, Everest, with its north-east ridge, is just visible (center horizon with the ‘traditional’ plume from the summit). #BlueSkyArtShow #photography #landscape
- #Tryfan, its north ridge, and the #Ogwen valley in #Eyri (Snowdonia) National Park, North #Wales (Gogledd #Cymru). A top 5 favorite hiking and scrambling spot since my teens. #MountainMonday #photography #landscape
- Rows of butter lamps shining brightly at Tashilhunpo #Monastery in #Shigatse, #Tibet. #BlueSkyArtShow #shiny #photography #Bhuddist #Bhuddism
- Evening, Cowlitz Chimneys at Mount #Rainier (Tahoma) NP. A gorgeous #sunset last week, whichever direction you looked. #MountainMonday #photography #landscape
- Another shot of the #Seattle #Skyline, this time from the very popular Queen Anne viewpoint to the north of the #city. This is how the city appeared back in 2013, before the new Amazon towers and buildings between downtown and Lake Union had been built. #BlueSkyArtShow #landscape #photography
- Moonset over the Seattle #skyline (circa 2012), with the Olympic mountains beyond, for today’s #BlueSkyArtShow. #photography #landscape
- Buddhist prayer flags, #pieces of (usually) square fabric adorned with images and texts fluttering in the wind on a bridge crossed on the approach to Namche Bazaar in the #Khumbu region, as you trek to #Everest base camp. #BlueSkyArtShow #photography #travel
- Love the careful framing of this.
- Another shot from my favorite bit of woodland, this time taken at the end of fall, for #ForestFriday. #photography #landscape #scape
- “Rolling the tea leaves”. Freshly picked leaves are rolled by hand in a heated wok as a first stage of making tea, on a plantation a few miles from Chengdu, #China #humansofbluesky #photography #portrait
- Narada Falls, in Mount #Rainier national park, for #WaterfallWednesday. #photography #landscape #waterfall #nationalpark
