The pool was so still it looked like glass #BlueSkyArtShow #Glass #photography

A low-angle view across a perfectly still swimming pool at sunset. Dramatic clouds, palm trees and a lone walking figure are reflected in the water, while the tiled pool edge creates a strong diagonal toward the horizon.

In Murano, just across the water from Venice, Watching glass come out of the furnace still glowing. #BlueSkyArtShow #Glass #photography

Close-up of a glowing glass furnace in a Murano workshop. A long metal rod enters from the left, holding a dark, molten gather of glass against the brilliant white-orange opening, surrounded by scorched industrial machinery.

Shattered light, scattered across the ground. #BlueSkyArtShow #Glass #photography

Sepia-toned close-up of broken glass shards scattered across gravel, dry leaves and twigs. Sunlight catches the sharp edges and reflective surfaces, while the background fades into a soft blur.

First light at the Marais d’Orx. At 5 a.m., the world is still holding its breath. #BlueSkyArtShow #Quiet #photography #art

The half-risen sun glows orange above a dark tree line at the Marais d’Orx. A thin layer of mist hangs over copper-colored water as two birds fly low across the still surface.

A candle breathing. Schlieren photography reveals the invisible currents of hot air rising above the flame. #BlueSkyArtShow #Macro #Photography More details 👇

Schlieren photograph of a small candle flame against a dark background. The image is mostly black and white, except for the orange flame. Bright, twisting ribbons rise above it, revealing the changing density and turbulent movement of the heated air.

A tiny world revealed after the rain. #BlueSkyArtShow #Macro #Photography #BlackAndWhite

Black-and-white macro photograph of a flower covered in tiny water droplets. The bloom is seen from the side, with textured, crinkled petals surrounding a dark central bud. The flower and its hairy stem are sharply detailed against a soft, almost black blurred background, making the droplets sparkle.

A quiet curve in the field. #BlueSkyArtShow #Curve #photography #blackandwhite Let’s see if this one gets labeled 😂

Black-and-white photo of a cow grazing in a field, seen from a low angle. Its back and lowered neck form a strong curve against the bright sky. Other cows and a farm building appear in the distance.

Cosmic Curves 🔭 M27, the Dumbbell Nebula, 📷 Newton 130/900 and Sony A7S. M27 glows as its white-dwarf core ionizes the star’s expanding outer layers. @kat-astro-bot.bsky.social what do you see ? #BlueSkyArtShow #Curve #astrophotography #photography #M27 #DumbbellNebula

A wide-field astrophotograph of Messier 27, the Dumbbell Nebula, surrounded by a dense field of stars against a nearly black sky. The nebula is positioned near the center of the frame and appears as a softly glowing, irregular oval with two broad opposing lobes. Its brightest inner region is pale blue, cyan, and milky white, with translucent layers of gas overlapping around the faint central star. Curved reddish-pink arcs form parts of the outer shell, especially along the upper-left and lower-right edges, creating a rounded, expanding structure around the cooler blue interior. Fainter blue-green gas extends beyond the bright core as a diffuse halo. Hundreds of stars of different brightness fill the background, from tiny sharp points to several larger white stars with subtle four-point flares. Many stars show slight red and cyan fringes, adding small touches of color throughout the otherwise dark field. Captured with a Newton 130/900 telescope and a Sony A7S camera.

Within the Curve #Montreal #curve #blueskyartshow

Black-and-white photograph of L’Anneau at Place Ville Marie in downtown Montreal. The enormous metal ring frames an office tower, while intentional camera movement makes the surrounding buildings appear curved and blurred.

A crowded street in Ho Chi Minh City filled with rows of motorbike and scooter riders waiting in traffic. Most riders wear helmets and face masks. Cars, buses, trees, and the Hotel Majestic building line the busy urban road.

I usually point this 300mm lens toward the stars, but with a macro adapter it found a whole morning in a single drop of dew #BlueSkyArtShow #Morning #photography
