Nestled within a lush, evergreen embrace, this serene forest trail invites hikers into a tranquil wilderness. The narrow, winding path—strewn with small rocks and bordered by vibrant green grass—gently ascends through a dense canopy of towering pine and fir trees. Their rich, dark needles contrast beautifully with the bright greenery underfoot, creating a soothing palette of forest hues.

Sunlight filters softly through the overhead branches, casting dappled shadows on the trail and highlighti…

dappled light splitting seconds while illuminating feet
#photography #feet #red

horizontal format photo of a foot resting on a brick-red fabric, hit by direct sunlight coming from a window outside the top of the frame of the image, resulting in the foot casting a dark shadow on the red fabric, being surrounded by dark shadows, while also receiving some strong red reflected light from the fabric it is resting on, plus some intense glowing red sub-surface scattering in the toes at the border between light and shadow.

almost the same view as in the previous image, but zoomed in a bit closer to the foot, and overall the red reflected light is more intense

again a similar view, but this time zoomed out a bit more, with two feet in the frame rather than just one plus more of the lower legs they are attached to. here the light is a bit less bright and the shadows especially stark

again a similar view, but zoomed in, this time on both feet, with the light being brighter than before, and the overall red glow more intense

This weekend I went out past Newark Valley to Oakley Corners State Forest which has two fair sized ponds -- this one has an island in it
#photo #photography #landscape

The lower half of this image is the surface of a still pond reflecting the sky, in the middle there is an island with short light-colored trees, in the distance there's a row of much darker trees, about 3/4 of the way to the right the side of the pond makes the trees form an expanding triangle. A small boat with people fishing can be seen towards the right, close in there is a stick extending into the water, and above it all a fair-weather cumulus blue sky!

I saw this blooming today downtown by the Cayuga Lake Inlet, my wife thinks it is a tree that's supposed to bloom in the Spring that's blooming in late August instead
#photo #photography #flowers

A branch from the center top of the frame descends across the center line to the middle and has two pink-purple blooms together with some old-looking leaves, further out out of focus are a few more branches in similar condition and a lot of blue sky

The other kind of crane always flies away when I show up but this one is working in Collegetown building a new building called 'The Ivy' at the intersection of College and Dryden

A yellow crane rises vertically straight up with a space frame beam supporting a cross beam long in towards the left and with a counterweight towards the right, above a blue sky mostly obscured by a huge cumulus cloud, in the bottom right the very tops of a few buildings are in front of or behind the crane.

Queen Jane was one of those premium cats they put out in front in the SPCA and was named Shakira when we got her -- they thought she was too social to be a "barn cat" but our barn is full of horse lessoners

My first shot with the Laowa 9mm/F5.6 W-Dreamer which is a rectilinear fisheye lens that leaves straight lines more or less straight -- here's a Cayuga Medical Center facility that has a gym, sports med doc, physical therapist and weight loss clinic right by the inlet
#photo #photography…

A large building looks small and strangely distorted: to the left a smaller box is stacked on a larger box, both with a creamy colored wall broken by windows that reflect the sky, to the left an all-glass section is covered by an awning with vast pillars -- in front close cropped grass, a brick path and a bridge, above a blue sky with clouds illuminated by the sun at the upper left, making the building cast strong shadows to the lower right.

A tiny tree branch extends from the right to the left with numerous tiny pink flowers that are in focus and a single tiny leaf; behind it are more branches large and small, the small ones covered with more pink flowers that are out of focus; the facade of a brick building with windows reflecting the sky can be seen in the far background

Another flowering tree I took on the same day -- some kind of 𝑃𝑟𝑢𝑛𝑢𝑠 aka sakura -- I found out they use the character 桜 for this in Japan but the different character 樱 in China although both have the same 木 on the left which means "tree"
#photo #photography

A tree branch comes halfway down from the center covered with huge rose-like pink flowers, there are a vast number of similar pink flowers in the background that are out of the plane of focus, the gaps between the flowers on the left side show maybe the wall of a building which is a mild white but on the right side there are circles of sunlight probably from a very bright sky.

Petunias in front of the public library in Newark Valley, NY
#photo #photography #buildings #architecture

A huge clump of petunias mostly fills the lower left 1/4 of the frame, a similar clump can be seen further away and behind both of those a flagpole with an American and POW/MIA flag and a small historic brick building with a square footprint seen corner-on. Behind it all a blue sky with high-altitude clouds with power lines that don't quite meet at a 90 degree angle because I used a wide angle lens and I was looking up from the ground.

The Cherry Arthaus in Ithaca by the Inlet seen from a nearby footbridge
#photo #photography #buildings #architecture

In the far distance there is a striking five story high building in two-point perspective on the side of a straight river-like body of water. The building is surrounded by trees on both sides. In the near frame are the rusted steel beams of a bridge, two small guardraials running horizontally near the bottom and vertical and diagonal beams attach to the arch that supports the bridge, most importantly the building is framed by a vertical and diagonal beam.
