Sunrise Behind a Veil of Smoke

nobody@ipernity.com (Don Sutherland) — Fri, 17 Jul 2026 11:39:55 +0000

Smoky sunrise (Larchmont, New York)—July 17, 2026

Wildfire smoke transformed the rising sun into a muted disc suspended behind a dense atmospheric veil. Its usual brilliance was subdued, filtered through layers of drifting particulate matter that softened the horizon and stained the morning light with tones of amber, rust, and ash.

This photo captures a moment of unsettling beauty. The sun remains visible, yet distant and diminished, its radiance constrained by smoke carried far from the fires that produced it. What first appears serene is also evidence of disruption: a sunrise reshaped by wildfire, distance, wind, and a changing climate.

Die meisten Häuser in Grönland sind auf Fels gebaut/aufgeständert und werden durch Holztreppen erschlossen. Damit sind sie im Winter trotz Schnee noch zugänglich und im Sommer versinken sie nicht in Schlamm/ auftauendem Permafrost. Orte ohne felsigen Untergrund bekommen wegen des Klimawandels zunehmend Probleme.

Haubentaucher (Podiceps cristatus) in der Auenlandschaft Hohenrode.

Was gibt's heute zu essen? Spinat ;-) (3 PiPs)

Das ist nur ein Spiel, das das Sozialverhalten stärkt. Tatsächlich ernähren sich Haubentaucher vorwiegend von Fisch, den sie tauchend erbeuten.

I was amazed you can get so close to this family of swans on the nest in Roundhay Park. The fence wouldn't keep them in or passers-by out.

As a child I was always told to keep well away from swans. They could break your arm with their wings my mother said & were especially dangerous when they were protecting their young. These beauties were almost in touching distance from the path and didn't even blink as people passed by!

HFF to everyone. Have a great weekend.
