Poking around Kāwā Bay Beach. It was a nice stop to be alone for a little while. A freshwater spring bubbles up right by the beach. #hawaii #nature

Walking through the Kīlauea Caldera. The plume blocked some of the sun, which was fortunate as otherwise all the black rock would have definitely made it a bit unpleasantly hot... #hawaii #nature

Kicksledding through a quiet forest today. The only sound I heard was from a softly hammering woodpecker.

A narrow, snow-packed trail through a dense forest of pines, cedars, and firs. The branches of the trees are covered with a heavy layer of snow. A bit of blue sky is visible between the tree tops.

An image from some of Scotland's most remote mountains. It's no small feat to get out here, but it's worth it every time.

Made last year when me and Benjamin Maze took a group of awesome clients hiking and wild camping here; we were treated to all manner of brilliant conditions from hail to blue skies. (Join us in September 2026 for the second iteration of our Northwest Highlands photography adventure!)

a boggy moorland of grasses and rocks dominate the foreground of this mountain image taken in remote scotland. white gneiss boulders interact with golden grass and reeds. the small lochan is perfectly still and reflects the partly cloudy skies above. three distant mountains stand tall in the background with a prominent central peak. the whole scene is dotted in a patchwork of light

Last week we got to go to Hawai'i very economically, and arrived to find that Kīlauea had started erupting. I'd never been to Hawai'i nor seen a volcano doing its thing, so that was a pretty good way to start. #hawaii #nature

Swaying

#Nature #Photography

A close-up, low-angle shot of dried ornamental grass swaying against a soft, wintry sky. Two main stalks of grass rise from the bottom, fanning out into delicate, feathery seed heads. The focus is sharpest on the central seed heads, revealing tiny individual husks and fine hairs that catch the light. The background is a soft blend of pale blue and hazy white clouds. The high-key lighting creates a "glow" around the edges of the grass, giving it a translucent quality.

We'd found a little cabin on the north coast in which to stay that looks out over this rock, which really really looks to me like someone sitting up in the bath. Seeing how the light hits "them" throughout the day was a lot of fun. #california #nature

Just some little woodsy things from the north coast. One of the reasons I like that area so much is just how much growth there is everywhere – fungus popping out of everything, trees growing improbably, little happy bugs and such (and, conversely, how hard it was to keep my walls mold-free when I lived there). A nice change from the Central Valley sometimes. #california #nature

An Opportunity to Address Mining Abuses Globally

When 29-year-old Norbert Amoya went to fetch water from a river in northern Zambia earlier this year, he found large numbers of dead fish and the water had a strange smell. The cause was a major mining disaster.

I'm slowly starting to share more images from my multi-year project "This Land Remembers", an odyssey into the last remaining ancient native woodlands of Scotland (like this one from a brilliant Autumn morning in 2025). I also have an upcoming exhibition at Gallery Photiq this April/May featuring 12 prints from the project, including this image.

I am fascinated by these colors. Among the yellow lichen Polycaulonia polycarpa and gray-green lichen Physcia dubia probably, you can see the tiny pink fungus Illosporiopsis christiansenii, which parasitizes the lichen. I photographed all this on a blackthorn tree (Prunus spinosa) while tasting the blue fruits, which were now frozen and therefore sweet.
#nature #lichen #mushrooms #macrophpoto #macro
In the macro photograph, the twig is completely covered with gray-green and yellow lichen. In addition to the usual wavy surfaces, the yellow lichen also has round, tiny cups. Roughly halfway up the vertical photograph, a small pink lump protrudes from the lichen surfaces, which is a parasitic fungus. The background behind the twig is a blurred gray and brown color.

Threats to conservation from artificial-intelligence-generated wildlife images and videos

"Three distinctive characteristics of contemporary society can exacerbate this issue: the pervasive use of social media, anthropomorphizing of animal behavior, and disconnection from nature."

Samhain [sow-wen]: the ancient Celtic festival that marks the end of summer and the beginning of winter — the moment when Beira the Cailleach, Queen of Winter, regains control over the landscape from the Queen of Summer, Brigid. It also marks the moment when the veil between the living and the dead is at its thinnest and the origins of Halloween. Mountain spirits come to the fore at this time of year.

Hidden inside every growing hypha lies a microscopic powerhouse — the #Spitzenkörper.
It’s not just a blob at the fungal tip — it’s the traffic controller, architect, and GPS of fungal growth. 🍄
