I'm a nature enthusiast, photographer, and writer living in SW Colorado. 🌿 https://smallscenes.com/linkshttps://bsky.app/profile/sarahmarinophoto.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/sarahmarinophoto.bsky.social/post/3lktr7klyk22fI saw this photo, and went back to it a few times, as I was looking at TJ's website yesterday. It is among my favorites from his collection, partly because I have wandered the desert where he took this for many days and have never seen anything quite like it myself.

It is also my favorite from his portfolio. I just love the mix of plants and trees, along with the soft light and graceful composition.

Here are a few recent favorites. You can read a little more about the process and see more photos here: https://smallscenes.com/blog/backyard-abstracts-winter-ice-231 Jan 2025 18:35 +0000at://did:plc:yfiimbeednrhisgbenetwdfc/app.bsky.feed.post/3lh2nc32rwc2ihttps://bsky.app/profile/sarahmarinophoto.bsky.social/post/3lgvqo4xrbk2yThis was one of the best and most exhilarating days I have spent in Death Valley National Park. It is the only time I have seen so much sand swirling around Tucki Mountain and it created a fresh composition option after photographing here so many times. #blackandwhite #naturephotography29 Jan 2025 19:53 +0000at://did:plc:yfiimbeednrhisgbenetwdfc/app.bsky.feed.post/3lgvqo4xrbk2yhttps://bsky.app/profile/sarahmarinophoto.bsky.social/post/3lgtqmkxvpc26I was a bit late in writing up my year-end wrap-ups this year but I ended doing three of them, each with photos and a few reflections: color nature photography, portraits of plants, and black and white photos.
