Nature photography refers to a wide range of photography taken outdoors and devoted to displaying natural elements, such as landscapes, wildlife, plants, and close-ups of nature scenes, and it's elements.

 

I will be sharing some particularly beautiful photos that I've found. There will be a link to each photo/photographer. I will be sharing some that my husband has taken over the years and perhaps a few of my own.  

 

You are welcome to share photos. 

 

 

Welcome to Green Ajah Nature week!

I live in prime photo taking country for the nature enthusiast. I however, am not good with cameras, nor am I much interested in taking pictures. However, mountain pics are my fave.

 

Here are a couple I found on the inter webs that are of home.

 

 

Yellowstone Falls. Beautiful, also packed to the jowls from May to Sept. best to get to the park really early or really late season.

 

 

Chief Joseph Scenic Highway, is a lost treasure. My absolute favorite area for camping and snowboarding adventures. This red rock formation starts at the base of the pass, and holds a special place in my heart.

 

 

Cooke City Montana. Not the town I live in, but close enough. This is the town at the NE entrance to Yellowstone, and the most beautiful drive into the park of all the entrances/exits(imo).

oops. 2x post

Beautiful!

These are all really cool pictures! I have a couple that I can add when I get home, I'll have to bounce them through imgur first so I can work around the file size limit.

[Ryrin]

Led, those are wonderful!

 

James, I can't wait to see yours. I'll post more of mine later.

These are of Bass Lake in the last couple of weeks. The Lake is about 15 miles (24 kilometers) from the entrance to Yosemite National Park.

I have a friend that went to Iceland.

This is from about a year ago, when Hurricane Matthew narrowly missed us and grazed the coastline.  A friend of the family took this photo:

 

Then these two were photos I took when I was at university.  The intent was to have a seasonal set for backgrounds, but summer looked almost exactly like spring and winter (that year) had no good leaf-fall that I could find.

They're hyooge files, so I'm hiding them in spoilers:

Finally, some photos from my university shot by much more talented people than I.  During wintertime, when everything is pretty :)

Those are beautiful, James!  Lovely winder and storm photos. It was 108F about an hour ago! I wish I could just step into them.

These were taken by my husband at Buck Eye Flat in the Sequoia National Forest.

These are all amazing pics!

 

I took this one when we were driving home last weekend.

 

[Ryrin]

Lovely pics, Mother and Rhea!

 

 

This one was taken a number of years ago with my youngest son and my nephew and niece's sons. They were posing in front of one of Sequoia National Forest's giant trees.

I took this one earlier in the year. It's right outside of my house.

Thank you everyone for participating in the Green Ajah Nature Week. We'll see you next year!

[Elgee]

Thank you for this - I love looking at people's nature photos!

[Ryrin]

I really thought we would be using photos from Instagram and I was pleasantly surprised to see so many personal ones.
