    At certain times of the year, because of the way the barriers islands off the NC coast are positioned, you can catch the sunrise and the sunset in the Atlantic Ocean. This is a sunrise at Kure Beach.

    The photo shows a wooden pier extending into the ocean with the sun rising in the distance.

    Another day ends as the sun sets over beautiful North Carolina. One less day of the present political nightmare to get through.

    Orange and pink clouds stretch across the sky, creating a vibrant sunset over a silhouette of trees on the horizon.

    I spend a lot of time on my deck. Through the years, I’ve gotten to know many of the tree rats who live in the massive old oak trees in my back yard.

    Kure Beach Pier on one of NC’s many barrier islands. In the spring, when the blue fish are running, it’s so crowded with people that it’s difficult to find a spot. In the winter, at dawn is a different story.

    A wooden pier extends towards the horizon, lined with lit lamp posts, against a backdrop of a vibrant sunset sky and calm ocean.

    Carolina sunrise. Good morning, y’all.The image displays a vibrant sunrise scene. The sky is filled with a variety of colors, ranging from deep purples and reds to bright oranges and yellows. The clouds have a textured appearance, with some areas appearing almost feathery and others more solid. In the foreground, there is a row of silhouetted trees, their bare branches reaching up against the colorful sky. The sun is partially visible just above the horizon, casting a warm glow on the scene. There is also a fence visible in the foreground, adding a sense of depth and perspective to the image. The overall composition of the photograph is well-balanced, with the elements of the sky, trees, and fence working together to create a visually appealing scene.

    An early morning view of the Green Mountains in Vermont, taken through the kitchen window of a kind stranger who fed my wife and me two meals and let us spend the night in her home, take showers and wash our clothes when we were hiking through her area. #photography

    A scenic view of a mountain range at sunrise. The sky is a mix of blues, whites, and pinks/oranges, suggesting the transition between day and night. There's a layer of fog or mist hanging over the lower parts of the mountains, giving them a hazy, layered appearance. The foreground is framed by dark silhouettes of trees on either side and in the center, creating a natural frame for the landscape. The overall impression is one of tranquility and natural beauty.

    It occasionally gets pretty damn cold in NC as evidenced by this frozen fountain. It might even snow this weekend for the first time in four or five years.

    This is a pickup truck beside a tobacco barn off of Peachtree Rd. in Harnett County, NC. I don’t know who it belongs to or who they are voting for or how they feel about Gaza or FEMA. It just looks cool, so I took this picture. I hope you like it.
