Photo of sunset and its reflection in what I think is a manmade pond here in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA. The sky and its reflection feature a few bright blue patches and many long, thin clouds catching the light of the setting sun in oranges, yellows, and a touch of pink. Trees and a long, low-lying building are both silhouetted and reflected on the far side of the lake. Plants on the nearside are also silhouetted.

Unfortunately, so does that beak.

Telephoto shot of a male boat-tailed grackle perched upright on a thick, bare grey-brown tree snag. Facing toward his right, he has his head tilted distinctly upward, showcasing a striking, bright pale yellow eye against a sleek black head. His neck and chest plumage are heavily ruffed and puffed out, catching a subtle iridescent violet sheen under the light. His long, black tail feathers extend straight downward below the perch. The background is a slightly clouded, pale blue sky that cleanly isolates his dramatic posture.

Macro of an Asian trampsnail (Bradybaena similaris) perched on a vibrant pink purple heart flower (Tradescantia pallida), photographed on September 27, 2026, at CREW. The snail has a translucent, golden-brown spiral shell and stretches its glossy, moist body forward onto a deep purple leaf blade adorned with glistening water droplets. Its two upper eyestalks extend vertically, locked in focus, while its soft foot glides across the delicate pink petals. The background dissolves completely into a dark, smooth out-of-focus bokeh, isolating the fine, glistening details of the scene.

Macro of a female bicolor striped sweat bee (Agapostemon virescens) perched on the bright yellow disk center of a pink and white cosmos flower (Cosmos bipinnatus), photographed with a Canon 5D Mark IV. Facing forward and downward, the bee has a brilliant, metallic emerald-green head and thorax with a finely dimpled texture. Her large, pale compound eye and a slender black antenna extending forward are sharply resolved. Her translucent brownish wings are folded along her abdomen, which features subtle, alternating dark stripes. Her hairy, pollen-dusted legs anchor securely into the dense yellow florets, while soft pink and white petals create a blurred, painterly background bokeh.
