A photo taken from near the base of a mature tree, looking in an upward direction. The crown of this tree has yellowish orange leaves during the autumn season. The trees around it still have green leaves, so the image looks a bit like a sea of colour surrounded by green. Patches of blue sky can also be seen around the top of the tree. The trunk of the tree is about one and a half feet in diameter. The photo definitely has an autumn feel to it.

More buttons

#History #Caregiving #Photography

A rich, close-up photograph of a dense and eclectic collection of antique and vintage buttons. The composition is chaotic yet aesthetically pleasing, filled with a vast variety of shapes, colors, and textures.

The overall palette is warm and earthy, dominated by muted browns, tans, and greys. However, several pops of color break through the neutral tones.

The collection showcases a diverse range of materials. There are buttons made of wood, horn, bone and shell. Several intricate, silver-toned metal buttons feature embossed floral or geometric patterns, adding a sense of craftsmanship and detail.

Smurfs Log: Buttons

* Part of the "Housecleaning (Things Left in My Mom's House)" series

Mom moved out of her house about four months ago. I have been spending a few hours every week organising things. Today I began the final leg of this journey: sorting her sewing room.

Throughout her life, she collected thousands of buttons of all shapes and colours. I'm finding it very difficult to decide what to do with this treasure trove…

#History #Caregiving #Photography

A dense, chaotic pile of buttons in various shapes, sizes, colors, and materials. The collection includes translucent amber-colored plastic, polished wood, matte black resin, metallic gold-toned crests, and even fabric-covered "shank" buttons in dark navy.

While most are circular, they vary from flat discs to domed spheres. Some have visible four-hole or two-hole centers, while others feature intricate embossed designs, like a lion’s crest or floral geometric patterns.

This image evokes a sense of nostalgia, reminiscent of a tailor's scrap box or a grandmother’s sewing kit, where decades of mismatched fasteners have been gathered over time.

Fin.
Our tree will be coming down soon.
*hums* On last day of Christmas my true love gave to me...

#photography #alcohol

A close-up picture of Santa, from the neck down to his gloved hands. Taken at a SantaCon, Santa is seated at a bar counter, holding a glass of amber ale with a slice of orange in it. The focus is on the hand and the beer, although also in the picture are other things on the bar... including Santa's beard and another glass of beer.

It's been a tough Christmas here.

"When you get into a tight place, and everything goes against you till it seems as if you couldn't hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that's just the place and time that the tide'll turn." ~ Harriet Beecher Stowe

Mein - vielleicht - bestes Foto 2025

#holgersfotos #fotovorschlag #photosuggestion #foto #fotografie #photo #photography

Blick von der Rialtobrücke in Venedig über den Canal Grande hin zu einigen Restaurants und Gondeln. Es ist Nacht, die Szene wird von wenigen Lampen an Häusern, Fenstern und den Außenbereichen der Restaurants erleuchtet.

A long overdue #Introduction.

I take #CreativeCommons photographs (Mostly of #Nature) which I contribute to #WikimediaCommons and when appropriate also to #iNaturalist. I've uploaded over 20,000 photos to #Wikimedia and over 12,000 observations to #iNat (of more than 3,000 species).

I only post my own photos on this account (all of which are #CCBYSA) and make occasional posts about Wikimedia and iNat.

A photo looking down a hill at the city of Oslo. The Oslofjord is visible in the distance. There are many green trees and the sky is filled with hazy clouds.

Cabin life

Nothing to do. Just waiting for tea and watching the light go down.

#FensterFreitag #WindowFriday
#forest #photography

Photograph of the dark interior of a cabin, showing a small rectangular window through which a green coniferous tree is visible and in focus. To the right of the window is a two-shelf, rough hewn wooden shelf, out of focus, on which are stacks of plates, glasses, cups, and a pile of linens. Cooking utensils hang on the side of the shelf. The rest of the cottage is in darkness.

Cabin life, moments later

Nothing to do. Just drinking tea and deciding it's time to light a candle.

#forest #lake #photography

#bloomscrolling #flowers #monochrome #blackandwhite #macro #photography

Black and white macro photograph of yarrow flowers, still open in October, composed of very small flowers in the centre and single-petaled flowers around the edges. None of the flowers are really in focus and some are blurred behind, with stems and foliage, giving a sense of movement.

#trees #autumn #fallcolors #autumnvibes #peaceful #birch #forest #road #photography

Photograph of a dirt road, partially covered in fallen orange leaves, bordered on either side by tall birch trees with very white trunks, which contrast with the yellow foliage still at their tops and with the smaller green conifers behind them. A cloudy white sky is visible through their canopy. This soft colour combination is my favourite of autumn.

Early morning tranquility on the Okavango Delta…

A very beautiful leopard lounges gracefully very high up on a large tree branch looking up to a clear blue sky, its tail curling elegantly. The scene conveys the tranquility and beauty of the leopard on a very early quiet morning on the Okavango Delta in Botswana
