Like a stroll on the moon?

Fog and Blue Sky
This was a nice way to start a long and tedious 9 hour drive. With fog hanging low in a forest of burnt trees the sun and blue sky make there way in. Happy Monday to all.
Where River Meets Sea
Standing in a river as it flows into the sea on a beautiful sunny summer day in East Greenland. A wide angle view puts things into perspective.
On Mt Evans
The light is changing up high, longer shadows on the rocks, a bit of that winter harshness. Crazy clouds swirl above Mt Evans on a weekend hike above treeline. Soon it will be time to trade the hiking boots for skis.
Seed Battle
A Rosy Finch shoots a Sparrow an intimidating glare as they battle for spilt seed from a feeder.
Birds on a log.
Well not just any two birds. A mom Merganser and her lone chick. They were quietly sitting on this log as I paddled by in my kayak. I was able to snap a few pics before moving on in leigh lake GTNP.
Warming
Although striking a similar pose to the chillin’ Prairie Dog posted earlier this week, this Red Bellied Marmot was warming in the rays of the sun, which is slowly loosing that heating power, after a early fall snow blankets the high country the previous day.
Chillin
Usually Prairie Dogs are busy scurrying about from hole to hole feeding and digging. This guy seemed to just be carefree and chillin’ on his front porch on a late summer afternoon and enjoying the warm sun and expansive prairie view. He does look well fed and ready for the upcoming winter. Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge.
Dusting
It was cloudy and cold all day but as evening approached the clouds were on their way out, blue sky moving in and just a dusting of snow on the peaks in the distance. Morning will be crisp and the sky clear as a bell.
Timelessness
Pinhole photo taken on a very windy cool damp morning while kayaking in Greenland. The experience of being in a true wilderness is timeless. Photographed with a holga WPC
