“Rùm is a Scottish Gaelic name. It is one of the Small Isles of the Inner Hebrides in Scotland. For much of the 20th century the name became Rhum, a spelling invented by the former owner, Sir George Bullough, because he did not relish the idea of having the title ‘Laird of Rum’.”

Seen from Skye it’s a good twenty miles. It very often appears as a pale shadow in the mist. Sometimes it looks as though you could reach out and touch it. Today it drifted beyond my reverie.

#ThrowbackThursday // Hiking the distinctive jagged peaks of the #TombstoneMountains way up north in #Canada's #YukonTerritory was an experience I'll never forget.

Along with 4 of my best mates we hiked the wild, desolate, alpine meadows and loose, rocky slopes of the peaks surrounding #GrizzlyLake, always in the shadow of the dominating form of Mt. Tombstone.

You know people who call this stuff duck tape? These are the people to blame.

Photo taken a few years ago in Valencia, Spain. No idea what kind of tree this is, although Siri labels it as either a chinaberry tree or poison hemlock, which is not a tree, so I'm guessing chinaberry tree is likely the correct one.

Grabbed this photo this morning on my way out of the coffee shop. This is facing the town square in Lebanon, TN. I took it on my Pixel 5 and edited it in Snapseed with a couple of filters.

Herman Gulch in #Colorado

This creek tumbles down from near the top of the Continental Divide until it reaches Clear Creek. I liked the curving lines of how the water flowed through the blocking rocks this little area.

The cities I live in/next to have been devoting more and more public spaces to prairie restoration. The wonderful thing about prairie is that it is a source of beauty year round, even in January.

Driftwood Sunrise! Another shot from my recent visit to Hatteras Island on North Carolina's Cape Hatteras National Seashore. It never disappoints.

I shot this photo of an American white pelican here in far Northern California. It was 12F at sunrise and the mist rising off the water created an ethereal atmosphere. #photography #wildlifephotography #birds #birdphotography
