Seceda ridgeline in the Italian Dolomites, within the Puez-Odle Nature Park in South Tyrol. #landscape #italy #nature #geography #photo #flowers

Imagine a colossal, slanted wave of pale gray limestone frozen in time. The Seceda ridgeline tilts sharply upward from lush, soft green alpine meadows on one side, ending in a jagged, serrated crest of razor-sharp peaks. To the other side, the mountain drops away into a dizzying vertical abyss. The air is thin and crisp, carrying the scent of wild herbs and the distant ring of cowbells.

Grand Teton National Park. Center in the background is the Grand Teton, reaching an elevation of 13,775ft /4198.62meters. A good place to see moose, elk and both grizzly and black bears in the forest slopes. #geography #parks #nature #photo #landscape

iconic view from the Snake River Overlook within Grand Teton Park . This specific vantage point was made world-famous by photographer Ansel Adams in 1942. While the trees in the foreground have grown significantly since his time, it remains one of the most photographed spots in the American West.

Hällingsåfallet waterfall located in Jämtland County, Sweden...The area is a protected nature reserve and part of the European Union’s Natura 2000 network. #sweden #nature #geography #photo #waterfall

A vertical photograph captures a powerful waterfall cascading into a deep, misty canyon under a golden sunset. The water plunges from a dark, rocky cliff on the right, churning into white foam as it hits the riverbed below. Sunbeams pierce through the canyon's rising mist, illuminating the steep, moss-covered walls. Dense evergreen forests line the upper ridges against a soft amber and blue sky. In the foreground, bright green leafy shrubs are dusted with morning dew or river spray.

A black-and-white vintage portrait photograph of American geographer Ellen Churchill Semple, taken in her later years. She is shown in a three-quarter view from the chest up, gazing to the side of the camera with a calm and composed expression. Her light-colored hair is styled in soft waves and pulled back elegantly. She wears a formal dark dress with a wide, sheer lace or net overlay across the bodice and shoulders, featuring intricate patterns and subtle embellishments. The background is a plain, softly faded studio backdrop. At the bottom of the image is her handwritten signature in cursive ink: "Ellen Churchill Semple.

Lago di Carezza, or Karersee, is a small alpine lake in South Tyrol, Italy, in the Dolomites at 1,520 meters altitude. Known as the "Rainbow Lake," it spans about 9 acres. #photo #landscape #geography #nature 🦉

Lago di Carezza, also known as Karersee, is a small alpine lake in the Dolomites of South Tyrol, Italy, famed for its stunning emerald-green waters that reflect the dramatic Latemar mountain range. Nestled at about 1,520 meters elevation, it spans roughly 9 acres with an average depth of 17 meters. The lake’s vibrant, rainbow-like colors and serene setting amid spruce forests and limestone peaks create a fairy-tale atmosphere, inspiring legends of water nymphs and sorcery. It is a popular destination for hikers and nature lovers, offering easy trails around the lake and spectacular panoramic views of the surrounding mountains

McKenzie River, Oregon watershed supports a wide range of native species, including threatened & endangered ones such as Chinook salmon, bull trout, and native “redside”. #ecology #nature #geography #photo

the McKenzie River in Oregon is a cold, fast-moving river that flows for about 90 miles from the Cascade Mountains to the Willamette River. Its waters are especially clear and pure, fed by springs and snowmelt, and they make a constant rushing or bubbling sound as they course over rocks and rapids. Along the river, thick forests of fir and hemlock grow, creating a damp, earthy scent and soft feeling underfoot if walking on the banks. The air is often fresh and cool, and birds like osprey may call overhead while fish such as salmon swim beneath the surface.

Glacier National Park is in northwestern Montana along the U.S.–Canada border. It had 150 glaciers in the 1800s, only 25 are left and may disappear if climate warming continues. #parks #climate #geography #nature #photo

I like #geography and think I'm pretty good at it. But had my mind blown today to learn that #Canada literally has a land border with #Europe. Look up "Hans Island."
