Turtles live in this wilderness - yes, within the hospital, isn't it great?

"How to live on Earth"

“Singapur has a philosophy of making space for nature throughout the city. This philosophy runs so deep that it’s even applied to a hospital.”

Have you ever seen this kind of lush green within a hospital?
Sooo beautiful, don't you think?

Shouldn't it be that way everywhere, in every hospital?

Nature heals people, what do you think?

(Benedict Cumberbatch is a great narrator in this documentary!)

Take your time and watch this inspiring documentary!

Close-up of white wild cherry blossoms on a branch with fresh green leaves against a pale blue sky. Multiple delicate flowers with five petals each are visible, with prominent stamens in the center. The shallow depth of field creates a soft, blurred background.

A small white crab spider camouflaged among the petals of a white wild cherry flower. The spider is positioned on one of the lower hanging blooms, nearly blending in with the white petals. A small black insect (possibly a fly or bee) is visible nearby on the flower. Green leaves and additional blossoms surround the scene with a soft, out-of-focus grassy background.

Can you spot the white Misumena vatia in these photos?

A clear, shallow river curves through a forested landscape under a bright blue sky. The water reveals smooth stones and pebbles beneath its surface. Gravel banks line the river’s edge, flanked by tall evergreens and leafy deciduous trees in fresh spring green.

The summertime North Fork Calawah River is clear and beautiful 🩵💚

A square-cropped close-up of a mossy fallen log extending diagonally from the bottom left corner into a shallow creek. The tight framing emphasizes the texture of the bark and the clarity of the water below, creating an immersive perspective.

A wider, landscape-oriented version of the same scene. This crop includes more of the surrounding forest canopy and riverbanks, placing the fallen log within the broader context of the lush green woodland environment.

I like both versions of this scene from the creek out back, but the crop of a photo can really change the feel of a scene, yeah? I typically like wider crops more, but square crops tend to work better for small screens because you don't have to ask your audience to rotate orientation for proper viewing 😅

A cluster of unripe elderberries lies on smooth gray creek stones in bright sunlight. The berries are a mix of green, yellowish-orange, and red, attached to vivid magenta stems. A single blade of green grass crosses diagonally beside them; the rocky creek bed fills the sunlit background.

A close-up, ground-level view of an unripe elderberry cluster resting among rounded river rocks. Green and red-tinged berries branch from dark reddish-purple stems, with a few small green leaves nearby. Blurred sunlit foliage glows in the background under a strong, shallow depth of field.

Cyanocitta stelleri like to cut off bunches of Sambucus racemosa to eat the berries in private. Not all of them are great at picking ripe bunches 😅

Purple crocuses with orange stamens bloom through cardboard sheet mulch in bright sunlight.

I was impressed by these crocuses that grew through cardboard sheet mulch to reach the sun 🌷☀️

Looking up at a large maple tree beside a creek, its sprawling branches thickly covered in green moss, with bright sunlight filtering through the dense leafy canopy onto ferns and gravel along the bank.

View straight up into the canopy of a moss-draped bigleaf maple, sunlit green leaves radiating outward from thick lichen-covered branches against patches of blue sky.

A massive, gnarled maple trunk wrapped in dark moss rises from a lush forest floor of ferns, surrounded by tall maple and fir trees in bright summer light.

A tall moss-covered maple dominates the frame, its twisting branches draped in green moss spreading beneath an overcast sky, with slender alder and fir trunks filling the misty forest behind.

Now testing a #littleFedi post scheduled 24+ hours ago with more magnificent Acer macrophyllum. I will never cease to be amazed by these organisms and their (many) symbiotes.

Deer gods 🦌🙏 I love these temperate rainforests 💚

A low-angle view of moss-covered trees in the Hoh Rainforest. Thick green moss coats the leaning trunk and arching branches of a bigleaf maple, with tall evergreens and patches of blue sky behind.

Let's test a near-future scheduled post from #littleFedi with this photo of a magnificently moss-laden Acer macrophyllum I came across on a short walk through the Hoh Rainforest to the banks of the Hoh River.

Close-up photo of a west coast lace weaver spider resting on a weathered wooden stake in a garden. The spider has glossy reddish-orange legs and head, and a large, rounded, silvery-grey abdomen held upright. Green foliage blurs softly in the background.

Spider season started early on the Olympic Peninsula this year. Walking into webs every which way I go isn't my favorite thing in the world, but I do love the opportunity to photograph some cool arachnids. This particular spider is Callobius severus. My partner saved her from drowning, and I captured a bazillion photos while she recovered in the sun.

L"art pour sauver la nature:
Des sculptures contre les chalutiers en Italie
Vous avez déjà entendu parler de la Casa dei Pesci, la "maison des poissons", en Italie ? Au départ, il y a le combat solitaire de Paolo Fanciulli, un artisan pêcheur révolté par la destruction des océans. Au fil des années, il a fédéré autour de lui des artistes comme Emily Young ou Maurizio Cattelan. Ensemble, ils ont bâti un musée sous-marin qui défend concrètement le vivant. Un barrage contre la surpêche et la bataille d’une vie.

A square black and white photo of a single foliage that got dry and wrinkled, laying in the grass.

Macro-Monday: foliage, not so fresh anymore, laying in the grass.
