The frigid waters of Sabbaday Brook flow alongside their frozen counterparts on a winter afternoon in the White Mountains of New Hampshire.⁠
⁠
The few days spent in the White Mountains this past winter were quite frigid, with the temperature being around 5°F (-15°C) on this afternoon. Even in the depths of winter, where the water temperatures are extremely cold, the fast-moving, oxygen-rich water resists freezing completely over. The parts which are calmer and slower-moving develop surface ice and anchor ice formations. The swirling water in the foreground and the area where it plunges into remain unfrozen, while the water around the perimeter freezes over.⁠
⁠
This photograph was taken just below Sabbaday Falls, literally behind my back as I took this photo facing away from it. The curtain icicles forming along the rock face occur where seepage or splash freezes gradually over time. I placed one of the fully extended legs of my tripod directly in the rushing water, with the other two (much shorter) legs on the ice shelf to the side, with the camera only a few inches above the rushing water. This allowed me to use the flow of the water as a leading line into the plunge pool and icicle display.

A 1950s roadside motel, closed for business and already fading into the past in Dunedin, Florida.⁠
⁠
The 1950s saw a surge of car tourism to Florida on the heels of WWII and the rise of automobile travel. The 1940s through the 1960s created strong demand for drive-up style lodging across the United States, with Florida being a major benefactor. These motels provided easy roadside access, the ability to park directly outside your room, and a simplicity of design that is uniquely tied to that era. Neon signage was intended to be eye-catching while driving down dark roads at night, and the pastel tones and palm tree-lined landscaping were deliberate, reinforcing the tropical escape aesthetic they aimed to promote.⁠
⁠
I was recently visiting Dunedin, Florida, and walked past this shuttered motel one evening. Its old-school character, combined with the large number of “Closed,” “No Trespassing” and “Private Property” signs and fencing, struck me as an interesting juxtaposition, what once was alongside what is still holding on. The next morning, I woke before sunrise to capture these images as the first light reached the property.

An eastern garter snake basking in the sun of a field still bare from winter, on a warm spring evening in Western Massachusetts.⁠
⁠
Eastern garter snakes are one of the most widespread and commonly encountered snakes in North America. And the most common reason you might encounter one? Because it needed some heat. Garter snakes (and snakes in general) are ectothermic, meaning they rely on external heat sources to regulate their body temperature, which is even more critical in spring because ground temperatures are still cool from winter, leading to snakes needing to bask in the sun more frequently.⁠
⁠
I took this photo three days ago while walking the trails of some local conservation land near me, something I try to do at least a few times a week. While walking through a field that is normally tall and thick with plants, its early-spring bare status not only provided this snake a perfectly exposed area to absorb the sunlight, but also made spotting a basking snake much easier.

A little blue heron catching a juvenile Atlantic ghost crab, along the white shores of Honeymoon Island State Park, Dunedin, Florida.⁠
⁠
When walking up and down the picturesque white sand beaches of Honeymoon Island State Park, you may miss the plethora of crab life taking place below and on top of the surface of the fine quartz sand. This is partly due to most of the crabs here being quite pale in color, blending quite well into their environment. You are also likely to miss them because they spend much of the day inside their burrows, emerging predominantly at night, preferring to stay inside the safety and cooler atmosphere below the surface. So, there is a good chance they would go unnoticed to the casual beachgoer, walking up and down the beach, never seeing a crab.⁠
⁠
But the same cannot be said of the predatory water birds who frequent these beaches, such as the little blue heron, who notice these crabs with ninja-like precision. Little blue herons are wading birds whose hunting behavior involves slowly walking the shore, pausing frequently to inspect these crabs’ burrows, waiting for signs of movement. Towards the end of the day, these crabs will emerge, seeking out water to moisten their gills, making them temporarily susceptible to attack from these opportunistic birds.⁠
⁠
I spent the better part of this evening photographing the varied bird life along the Pelican Cove area of Honeymoon Island, hoping to catch some birds zeroing in on their prey. It happens incredibly fast, striking down at the crab, quickly repositioning and shaking their newly caught meal before swallowing it whole. Not only was this little blue heron satisfied with its catch, I was equally pleased with capturing this moment. Two catches in one.

The edge of a constantly changing tidal lagoon, just before sunset alongside the North Beach at Fort De Soto Park, in St. Petersburg, Florida.⁠
⁠
Incoming and outgoing tides are constantly shaping the beaches they interact with, a relationship exemplified in the different water features created as the ocean’s waters come in and then recede. One of these features is a tidal pool (or lagoon), which forms when waves and currents build up sandbars parallel to the shoreline, trapping the water which comes in during high tide, forming a long, shallow pool as the tide goes back out. Being protected from direct wave action, these lagoons are quite peaceful, with the ridges in the sand (seen in this photo) forming by gentle oscillation inside the pool, not from crashing waves. These tidal lagoons are also mini-ecosystems, often trapping small fish, crabs, shrimp, and mollusks as the tide drops. As a result, wading birds focus on these areas, as their isolated density of creatures results in a buffet-like opportunity for them.⁠
⁠
I took this photograph a couple weeks ago while spending a handful of days around the Tampa area in Florida. I went to photograph the sun setting over the Gulf of Mexico on this evening at North Beach, one of the more scenic areas of Fort De Soto Park in St. Petersburg. While scoping out my sunset location, I was taken by the low-angle sun emphasizing the ripple lines along this tidal pool. I took off my gear, stepped into the sun-warmed shallow pool, and set up my tripod quite low to the water. I used the curvature of this lagoon as a natural leading line, took a few photographs, then proceeded onward in search of my sunset.⁠

An American pika harvesting vegetation to store underground in preparation for their long winter inside the high elevations of Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming.⁠
⁠
Pikas live in high-elevation alpine environments, such as those found in the higher elevation regions of Grand Teton National Park. They are especially fond of talus slopes made up of broken rock, giving them places to not only make a burrow, but places for them to store the hay that they harvest throughout the year, to help them get through winter.⁠
⁠
Pikas do not hibernate like many winter mammals, and in order to survive the upwards of 9 months of being covered in snow, they must engage in haying, which is harvesting vegetation in the form of grasses, wildflowers, and other leafy plants to feed on while their environment is inhospitable in the winter.⁠
⁠
They maintain multiple haypiles, and on this day, the pika was quite busy gathering vegetation to store for the winter. I watched this pika, along with a handful of others, essentially gather plants nonstop, over and over and over again. On this particular trip, this pika grabbed a mouthful of two separate plants, a bit of alpine forb vegetation with some fern mixed into it. They prefer plants which dry well without molding, with small and narrow leaves, that are able to retain their nutrients over the winter, which both of these are.

A tricolor heron wades through a sawgrass marsh, hunting for fish inside Everglades National Park, Florida.⁠
⁠
Tricolor herons are medium-sized herons found along the eastern coast of the United States, extending through Mexico and into parts of the coastal regions of northern South America. During their breeding season, they are commonly found in mangroves, coastal estuaries, salt marshes, and lagoons. Outside of the breeding season, they also utilize lakes, canals, and freshwater marshes, of which the Everglades has plenty.⁠
⁠
In the Everglades, the dry season typically spans from November through April. During this time, receding water levels concentrate fish into increasingly confined areas, creating highly productive feeding opportunities for wading birds such as tricolor herons.⁠
⁠
Their hunting style is more active than that of many other herons, as they deliberately walk through shallow water rather than standing motionless, using quick jabs and sudden lunges to capture small fish concentrated within narrow water channels and open pockets between vegetation.

A supercell with lowered wall-cloud passes over some farmland in Lawton, Oklahoma, on June 18th, 2025.⁠
⁠
This was toward the end of a day following this storm passing through southern Oklahoma, which had a strong likelihood of producing a tornado. Although no tornado formed on this day, the storm exhibited a strong, persistent rotating updraft, and a wall cloud which could have easily transformed into one. Wall clouds form when warm, moist inflow is pulled upward into the storm’s updraft. As this warm air rises, it cools and condenses at a level lower than the existing cloud base, creating a lowering known as a wall cloud.⁠
⁠
We pulled over on the side of the road here next to a bunch of farmland, which, if you are traveling around Oklahoma, is quite abundant. Waiting for a tornado to potentially form, while we may not have witnessed a tornado on this day, we were certainly exposed to plenty of strong wind, rain, hail, and lightning.

The setting sun peeks over the Sandwich Range, at the end of a wintry day in the White Mountain National Forest, New Hampshire.⁠
⁠
Unlike the sharper, more alpine peaks of the Presidential Range of the White Mountains, the Sandwich Range has more rounded summits and longer ridgelines, due to this being an older mountain range, shaped over millions of years by heavy erosion and repeated glaciation. The most prominent peaks here are Mount and East Osceola, and the forested bowl in the midground of this photograph drains toward the Pemigewasset River. The foreground is filled with young balsam firs and red spruce saplings, short in size and barely able to push up through the thick snow here.⁠
⁠
This photograph was taken from the Pemigewasset Overlook, one of the four major overlooks featured on the Kancamagus Scenic Byway. I stopped at all four on this day, and while the other three were fully plowed of snow, this one, for whatever reason, was not. Which, being in an all-wheel drive vehicle, proved to not be a major issue. The same could not be said for a couple of the other visitors who happened to pull into this parking lot on this afternoon. Of the upwards of an hour spent at this overlook, the majority of it was spent listening to the whirring wheels and laborious manpower efforts of the passengers trying to push their vehicles back out of the thick snow this parking lot was composed of.
