The Logan River, coursing its way through the Bear Mountains in northern Utah is flanked by brilliance charged with announcing a dramatic change of season.

Relinquish the Crown
A cactus wren returns to its perch high atop a saguaro in the Sonoran desert to find a dove has chosen to occupy its briefly abandoned place. An attempt to motivate the dove to relinquish the saguaro crown and give up the space next to a sitting wren seems to fall on unresponsive feathers.
Bonsoir!
As the sun diminishes Tour d’Eiffel comes alive with light to bid a good evening to all in the city of Paris. The icon was originally constructed as an attraction and entrance to the World’s Fair held in 1889. It was named after Gustave Eiffel, the man in charge of the company that engineered and constructed it. From different viewing levels visitors can view the expansive Parisian landscape as if it were an architect’s model. At 324 meters (1,063 feet) in height it still ranks as the tallest structure in Paris. It is so recognizable that throughout the world people can call out its name simply by being shown a likeness of it. Paris is a favorite city of mine and nearly every time I visit I find myself in the gravitational pull of this alluring filament in the City of Lights.
Craters of the Moon
Craters of the Moon is a steamfield in New Zealand and part of the greater Taupo Volcanic Zone of the North Island. Heat from the vents keeps much vegetation at bay but the verdance of enduring varieties mixed with venting steam makes for an unusual and inviting experience.
The Wild Ones
The islands of Assateague and Chincoteague along the coast of Maryland and Virginia harbor a large group of feral horses that roam free, protected by their residence within State Park boundaries. Their diet consists mostly of marsh grasses and available fresh water sources. Shown here are two of the wild horses at play.
Baked Alaska
Alaskan terrain starts changing into its fall wardrobe while its southern relatives are still going green. When I left from Arizona in the month of August the broad leaves of Oak Creek Canyon were as bright as the summer allows. However as I traversed northward through the Canadian Rockies traces of the upcoming season were making themselves more and more evident, first in the understory then gradually moving up and outward to enliven eager limbs. Some were already a complete burst of color even before the official arrival of Fall according to the calendar. But then the northern climes endure more summer daylight making the short summer more intense anyway. The image shared is a colorful vignette garnered along gentle flats of the Tanana River Valley in eastern Alaska.
Berlinspiration
The important European city of Berlin sits on the fertile European Plain and is ringed by forests and nature spots. It is one of the world’s most cosmopolitan cities. Berlin is defined by a diverse human population coming from every peopled continent of the earth and speaking all major and many minor languages. Its rich history was most recently carved by the elimination of the infamous Berlin Wall. The wall was erected in 1961 to cause division but some 28 years later was dismantled to purposefully unite divided peoples — an act that inspired millions with new hope.
My daughter Katrina and I were traveling through the area when the momentous event unfolded. I will never forget the powerful impact it made on all of us, visitors and Europeans alike. Whenever we met them on the train or in the streets, joy was in the air and it was most contagious. It was not just news of the dismantled divider that fueled an excited spirit but also the prospect of renewal that always seems to accompany positive change.
Tarantula Hawk
A tarantula hawk feeds on a favorite treat: milkweed. While drinking the flower’s nectar, the colorful spider wasp’s legs fit into grooves of the milkweed flower containing pollen. The pollen adheres to the insect’s legs and when it flies to another milkweed, the pollen is transferred and the plant is pollinated, seeds are produced and more milkweed plants grow.
The female of the insect species is noted for searching out tarantulas, stinging them into paralysis and then laying an egg in the living host. The hatchling will feed on parts of the spider until it matures and then departs.
The Wettest Desert On Earth
The Sonoran Desert of the Southwest USA and northern Mexico is known as “the wettest desert on earth.” The designation has been applied because of increased potential for rain, due in part to the famous regional summer monsoons. The image here was taken in Mexico’s Sonoran Desert and shows lush vines growing below barren desert mountaintops in Estado Sonora.
Simatai Village
The new Simatai Great Wall village known as Gubei Water Town is up and running as an attraction at the foot of the Great Wall in Miyun county 135 miles north of downtown Beijing, China. The completely new town has architecture reflecting an historic Chinese style built around modern infrastructure which makes it both attractive and practical. The Tanghe River, complete with an arched stone bridge wends its way through the town which was modeled after a southern China community named Wuzhen Water Town which is famed for being the “Venice of the East.”
That Toddlin’ Town
Chicago is Mid-America’s capital city and the world’s largest metropolis on a fresh water shore. Lake Michigan is the big blue expanse lapping at the city’s foundations and it, conjoined with Lake Huron, has a surface area so immense that from this perspective it ranks as the largest fresh-water body on earth. My experiences in any major city tend to send me into public parks and gardens and seeking out man-made architectural accomplishments, which from my perspective are just as much a part of our nature as it is for beavers to build dams. In Chicago such pursuits are easy to come by and many venues have excited my senses from the dynamics of the magnificent lakeshore itself, through to the inland Chicago Botanic Garden.
Living on the Edge
This inviting house in a beautiful setting in the fjord country of central Norway looks like the perfect location to enjoy the isolated beauty of this lovely Scandinavian country. If invited as a visitor I think I would be very careful when stepping off the porch!
Sturt’s Desert Pea
I once drove over 300 miles into Australia’s interior simply to see this interesting floral specimen first-hand. Sturt’s Desert Pea (genus: Swainsona) is generally considered a prostrate spreading annual (though like most other things in life it can also belie any standardized characterizations). To some people the lovely little plant looks something like a swarm of terrestrial invaders!
Sky High
The Alaska Range is not only North America’s highest mountain range in altitude but has the continent’s highest peak, Denali, or Mount McKinley. The view here is from the eastern edges of the range from where I sat enthralled by a constant change in light and shifting elements in air and sky.

Not what it appears . . .
In most cases an image like this might typify a lovely seasonal monsoon afternoon buildup, but in this case it is not a pretty picture at all. May 2014 witnessed the destructive visit of a forest fire known as the “Slide Fire” in Oak Creek Canyon which abruptly climbed to the Colorado Plateau above Sedona, Arizona. This is the unsightly aftermath of smoke and flame coloration in evening sky observed from within the city limits.
