I am glad you liked it then!


Some more new ones from me, taken the last days:

Took some pics around the yard (West Virginia) last week... 3 more under spoiler.

forestcorpse: worked late aye ha ha or is that lunch time? i can never tell if it's the moon or the sun in your photos

EssexCounty: nice, i can imagine herds of bison roaming all over the place there

Both of these were determined by others.

Helicoverpa zea (Corn Earworm Moth - Hodges#11068)







Callibaetis fluctuans

hey cool, good photos man, that last one is a damsel fly isn't it? [the common name]
today was the windiest day i think i've ever experienced, so i went up the mountain and took some phone-photos of some flowers

Thanks and its a female mayfly (Ephemeroptera), from the bugguide.net info page, "Adult lifespan ranges from 1.5 hours to two weeks; most adults live 48-72 hrs."

Haha, these are not work photos, taken when I went for a walk an evening. And it's the moon!


A few more:

Where is this last batch from? Not sure if they're all the same place.

forestcorpse i'm your fan

me too, photo groupies! ha ha

forestcorpse basically owns the thread. Love the structures in the last few.

These three were taken in New Mexico.. they came off my cell camera and still turned out ok I guess.


Creepy manmade burial ground in New Mexico.


All the people had just left the church to walk 5 miles for some homage, it was very creepy as well.


A random place on the side of the road that looked interesting.

They are all form around here, about 20min of walking from each other.
And thanks a lot for all the nice comments, again.

Photo groupies? Haha

...and some more, these are taken some weeks ago, still around here:










EssexCounty: Wow! That place looks so cool! That's the kind of place I would love to wander around in.

Niice photos, guys!


I REALLY like this one, ForestCorpse!

My last one:

I've been meaning to get pics of a few places around here outside of town. However, there's been lot's of rain up in the mountains, so until the weather dies down I'm not taking the car deep into the hills; like at all.

Flash floods are surprisingly common out here.

it's not surprising at all mate, the ground can't absorb the moisture so it just blasts over the top, taking unwary jeep driving metal photographers with it
have you ever had to dig a hole out there? maybe to plant a tree or bury a pet [or an annoying friend]

I haven't. A couple classmates have landscaping jobs and both absolutely hate every minute of it.

Shouldn't there be at least two of you, when travelling in the desert?


I didn't know of the hidden danger, until I watched Kekexili

^why would a myserious man, living in the desert and immune to it's hardships, who can survive days without water subsisting only on metal, need a companion?

That's part of his whole allure...

some old pics I found on my hd. they were taken with a very shitty cellphone, so forgive me for the bad quality

ha ha awesome, looking down at clouds?! you must be really high up

I think it was around 2300m high at these shots

it was one hell of a hike getting there

fark that's high! what country? are you the one in brazil?
<== no profile location

yes, all of my pics are from brazil, those were from the national park of Itatiaia, if anyone gives a shit(except the first one, that was from my house)

Huh dude why did you spoiler-tag each pic individually...? I ain't clicking all that shit. They aren't even large.

.

Do it like this. And no asshattery, dreadmeat.

Those pictures have real atmosphere, sometimes low megapixels are better for landscapes.
I can imagine a troll walking down that path (stream?).

because I'm a dumbass, that's why
i'll fix it

@mindshadow
that one is a path, the 6th one is a stream but it's a bit hard to see

Marag: Great photos! It looks so wild and pure.

Some more from my place:
Autumn is finally here.

Man I always love your photos, FC. One of the ones above will be my background at one point.

I was just thinking the same actually. The problem is that stretched to my 1920x1080 screen it's intolerably blurred. Is there any chance you could maybe send me the 10th picture of your last post in original size, forestcorpse? I would really appreciate it.

Mine is 1920x1080, too. I just figured he'd have these at 7 mb or something like my photos are before resizing.

Some of you live in amazing places

@mindshadow awesome, i love that stuff.
dewy thistles covered with spiderwebs or gorse?

By "some of you" you mean forestcorpse, right? (:

Great pics anyway, some pretty atmospheric shots. What exactly is that thing on the second pic? Kinda looks like an overgrown fungus, but I can't really tell

it looks like a walnut burl: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burl

Gorse sounds right, Byrain's the expert.



Yes forestcorpse especially, but everyone who posts here really; including your mountains. It's a tree root, it looks like walnut but I didn't realize what the tree(s) were

^ Good find dreadmeat

The rain is finally moving into the valley so next week I should be able to grab some pics. In the meantime behold the epic view that is my front yard.

That's Lone Butte to the left and what I believe is Straw Peak off in the distance on the right.

Hardly, I have no idea nor have I heard of Gorse before.
I can however say your last picture of the orange mushrooms looks like a Gymnopilus species.
