one scoop of local molly moon's costs more than a pint of ice cream in the grocery store. but the scoop is delish & view is lovely. #honeylavendericecream #icecream #summerday #junegloom #pnwlife #lifeinphotographs #photography #seattlewaterfront #touristthings

the challenge during summer is finding trails not overrun w/ tourists. solution - backcountry trails w/ high elevation gains. #forest #pnw #wilderness #nature #landscapephotography #photography #hiking #pnwlife #westcoastkin #backpacking #coastalforests #blueskyphotography #greenyourfeed

anyone else find it ironically amusing that trump is giving his lies & propoganda speech on april fool's day?

Public comment ends tomorrow, March 23. The Trump admin announced revised management plans for 2.5 million acres of western Oregon’s public forest lands in order to "maximize" logging. These public forest lands need your voice. Submit your public comment today. oregonwild.org/action/stop-...

unpopular opinion - i hate savings time. it's totally out of sync with my circadian rhythem & it takes me over a month to sort of adjust, but i am basically low key sleep deprived march thru november. #nature #photography #botanicalgarden #pnw #landscapephotography #pond #willowtree

Ocean Beach this morning… just wow!!

i tried to come up with a catchy quip about nature having no borders, & wouldn't it be great if humans had the same freedom to move in support of shelter, food, safety without being criminalized, but i got nothing, so ..... #photography #nature #blueskyphotography #blackbird #landscapephotography

it's been a cold and dry january in the #pnw, which doesn't bode well for summer. i'll take winter rain over summer wild fires everytime. #landscapephotography #nature #westcoastkin #pacificnorthwest #outdoortones #optoutside #upperleftpnw #photography #photographersofbluesky
