Auf einer Rückenlehne aus Holz, grau und verwittert, wachsen grau-grüne Moose und Flechten. Der Fokus liegt auf diesen, der Rest des Bildes ist unscharf.

Grey-green mosses and lichens are growing on a wooden backrest, which is grey and weathered. The focus is on these; the rest of the image is out of focus.

A close-up view of a green leaf with a soft, blurred background of more greenery. The leaf has a slender shape with a subtle central vein. The outer leaf protectively cups the the central shoot which has yet to open.

Just finished this one.

A couple of factual inaccuracies (no, 'G' in physics does not mean 100 times your weight - it is earth's gravitational constant 'g' in this context, and yes, chimps do actually teach one another), plus some idiocy no fault of the author (chimps don't understand 'zero' dear researchers, true, but neither did humans until a millennium or so ago)...

But overall, a well-researched informative read - highly recommend.

The cover of Jon Cohen's 'Almost Chimpanzee' subtitled 'Redrawing the Lines that Separate Us from Them'.

The title and subtitle are cream and red respectively, displayed over the image of a chimp seen from behind, his dark fur shimmering in silhouette against a black background, the formidable compact musculature of his neck and shoulders as striking as the pale tips of his ears.

As a kid, I always felt that summer did not last long enough, and all too soon my mom was buying pencils and notebooks for sending me back to school.

But as an adult, I feel summer flying by each year as well. Oh, I may complain about the heat, but I still take time out for lazy, just-like-a-kid, summer days.

Normally, when we drive through country landscapes, we're looking at the landscape -- the cows and farmhouses, rolling hills and copses of trees. But this time, it was the sky that demanded our attention, filled with outrageous poofs and puffs of clouds that constantly shifted, sometimes hiding the sun, other times breaking apart and letting it shine through.

“Do not stop thinking of life as an adventure. You have no security unless you can live bravely, excitingly, imaginatively; unless you can choose a challenge instead of competence.” ~ Eleanor Roosevelt

Water spilling over a stone shelf with some green moss cover. There is some leaf litter caught beside rocks along the very shallow stream. Leaves of a nearby tree border the top of the frame. The water surface is reflecting the blue sky overhead.

Three pink Zinnias is a watercolour painting in a modern square format painted by artist Karen Kaspar. On a white background float three beautiful zinnia flowers in bright pink and rose, surrounded by fresh green leaves. I have kept this watercolour loose and fresh like a summer garden, with a vivid colour contrast between the pink flowers and the background of green leaves and the diagonal composition within the square format.

I just saw the first bumble bee! Tiny insects are flying again. This is the time to come out of my hibernation modus and write more about #nature. I talk about #snails, and as they are still in their protection places, reflect on Homo-not-so-sapiens: https://steady.page/en/naturematchcuts/posts/28951404-a41f-4215-ab89-bc35dbc41233

Kerkvaart

#Landscape #Nature #Photography

A serene, autumnal forest scene centered around a narrow, still canal. The canal acts as a central leading line, drawing the eye toward the center of the frame.

Because the water is so calm, it creates a near-perfect mirror reflection of the sky and the surrounding trees.

The ground on either side of the water is blanketed in a thick layer of reddish-brown fallen leaves. On the left bank, a few green ferns persist, offering a small hint of green amidst the transition to winter.

Good morning! For this #silentSunday I want to share this #foggy path with you.

I was on my way down and when I entered the fog, temperature really dropped. Actually I didn't want to stop or slow down in order to avoid cooling out.

But at this spot I had to take a quick break for a quick photo to capture the memories of this day. It would have been smart to utilize the break to put on an additional layer - but I wasn't THAT smart ;-)

#photography #fog #nebel #hiking #nature #forest

This image portrays a tranquil winter scene in a forest. Tall, leafless trees stand on either side of a narrow, snow-covered path that winds its way through the woods. The ground is blanketed in a layer of fresh snow, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere.

A light mist or fog fills the forest, softening the outlines of the trees and adding a sense of mystery and calm. The bare branches of the trees reach upward, their dark trunks contrasting sharply with the white snow. The path, partially covered in snow, invites exploration and evokes a sense of solitude and quiet reflection.

The overall mood of the image is serene and almost magical, capturing the stillness and beauty of a winter's day in the forest. The fog adds an ethereal quality, making the scene feel timeless and untouched.
