Haystack Rock from a quieter angle. #photography #landscapephotography #fineart #nature #cannonbeach #oregon

Most people go to Pfeiffer Beach for the pink sand. I spent most of my time with this wind-shaped cypress instead. #photography #landscapephotography #nature #fineart #bigsur #california

Wood waves. Beautiful how the same patterns repeat everywhere, isn’t it? #photography #macrophotography #california #fineart

I quietly sat and waited for the moment a wave met the rock at the center of the frame—now hidden. The California coast has a way of rewarding patience. #photography #fineart #landscapephotography #BigSur #California

Waterfall on the Olympic Peninsula. I experimented with exposure times and landed on this one—soft flow, but with individual streams still visible. How do you like to photograph moving water? #photography #landscapephotography #nature #PNW #fineart

Anyone else settling into a photographic theme this year? I didn’t plan one, but fog keeps showing up—here's to 2026! #photography #landscapephotography #fineart #PNW #fog

Everyone visits the Hoh Rainforest in summer. But its true character lives in the wet months. Temperate rainforests are built on moisture and shade—conditions that turn fallen trees into nurseries and forests into layered systems of life. #photography #art #landscapephotography #PNW #hohrainforest

Yes, living in the PNW can be dreary. It's wet, gray, and relentless. But it’s also atmospheric, contemplative, and breathtaking in ways that sunnier places never are. #photography #nature #landscapephotography #PNW #fineart

Lichens always stop me in my tracks. They’re not plants but rather a symbiosis between a fungus and an alga living as one. And this California coastal cypress is the perfect home base for them to anchor to. #photography #art #california #landscape

Nature’s first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf’s a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf, So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. —Robert Frost, 1923 #photography #art #california #tahoe #seasons

May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view. May your mountains rise into and above the clouds. May your rivers flow without end. Edward Abbey — Desert Solitaire, 1968 #photography #dailyphoto #art #landscape #utah

After the Rush. In Lavrio, Greece, the old miners’ quarters tell a quiet story. Long after the industry faded, its imprint remains—homes, lives, and a town still carrying the weight of its past. More on: studioceleste.art/after-the-ru... #photography #art #dailyphoto

Her name is Nature, wild and free. the force that shapes eternity. She whispers in winds, roars in seas, She breathes life through roots and trees. Her fury strikes when harm is done. a blazing storm, a wrathful sun. Respect her balance, hear her call, For nature reigns above us all.
