For #RockinTuesday. This #infrared image was made on Moccasin Creek in Rabun County Georgia just above Hemlock Falls. It was a glorious day for a hike. Above the falls, the trail disappeares. I made my own trail at that point. #photography #landscape #ECK #rivers #creeks #fullspectrum #ir
Wishing you a tree-mendous Tuesday 😁

For #Stunday. This #infrared image was made in the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge near St. Marks Florida. This oak tree sits over a small pond. It is a nice place to shoot. #photography #landscape #ECK #monochrome #bnw #blackandwhite #fullspectrum #oaktrees
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #WorldOceansDay. This is another image of a beautiful gull that I made recently down along the North Florida coast. As it lifted off, I held the shutter down. #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #ECK #birds #birdsinflight #seagulls #gulls #NikonZ8
Today's #BlueskyArtShow theme is #Busy. Panoramic images often feel that way as there can be a large amount of landscape captured in a single merged image. #photography #landscape #ECK #panorama #blackandwhite #bnw #monochrome #infrared #ir #fullspectrum #Nikon
For #TidesOutTuesday. This is a tidal pool by our lighthouse in coastal North Florida. The Gulf of Mexico is just off to the left. At high tide, water rises to about 15cm deep or so. #photography #landscape #ECK #infrared #fullspectrum #bnw #blackandwhite #monochrome #lighthouses #clouds #Nikon #Z8
This wood ear fungus was photographed in the woods behind my house. It's a strange looking thing. We had a bunch 9f rain and these things appeared seemingly overnight. I love making images right after it rains. #photography #ECK #fungi #FungiFriends #Mycology #macro #mushrooms #NikonZ8 #rain
Well this little beauty fits for today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #WorldOceansDay as well as #BlueskyMonday. This little tern was diving for fingerlings in the shallows of Lighthouse Pond in our local wildlife refuge. #photography #wildlife #ECK #birds #birdsinflight #terns #NikonZ8
For #ColorADay, it's #RedWed. This pitcher plant knew the assignment. It was photographed in a national forest in North #Florida. The bogs are beautiful in springtime. #photography #landscape #ECK #Sarracenia #PitcherPlants #bogs #NikonZ8
It's #Stunday and I think this young tricolored heron is stunning. It was successfully fishing in the shallows of our local wildlife refuge in North #Florida. #photography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #ECK #birds #NikonZ8 #herons #nature #conservation ##wadingbirds
