Through the lens Pause slideshow

Autumn trees beneath a blue and peach evening sky with a diagonal contrail

A rocky shoreline viewed from a wooden railing

A sunny lane winding through green hills

A hummingbird perched on a slender branch

Sunset over water viewed through a window

Autumn leaves and an early-voting sticker on a brick pavement
