Thursday’s Task: No Parking. “Where do you wish you were instead?” landscape.
My next posting of Thursday’s Tasks will be October 30, 2025.
My examples below:
Great Smoky Mountains National Park, TN
Alan, beautiful drone (I assume) captures! It’s always rewarding to see images from these higher viewpoints. I especially love the Meyers Creek, Arch Rock, and Harris Beach images—perhaps my favorite is Secret Beach. All your images are a delight to the eye! Thank you for sharing!Where do I wish I was? Out flying along the southern Oregon coastline.

Jameel, beautiful fall colors you’ve shared—and thank you! I especially love the middle two images, but all are very, very nice! The gorgeous second image is definitely enhanced by the reflection. Again thank you for sharing each of these!Where would I like to be right now? Somewhere with nice peak fall colors. Like Tetons perhaps.

I think your first image was taken at Cape Meares overlooking Tillamook Bay in the upper right and the beach north of Depoe Bay is Fogarty Creek State Recreation Area. I have no clue how many times I have driven US101 along the OR coastline but it's in the dozens range. Nice set of shots.I wish I was driving along the central Oregon coast!

Thanks Alan for identifying those locations and your commentary, both are very much appreciated.I think your first image was taken at Cape Meares overlooking Tillamook Bay in the upper right and the beach north of Depoe Bay is Fogarty Creek State Recreation Area.

Thanks John for your very nice comments on Kathleen and my images, they are very much appreciated!Larry, four very gorgeous images from Kathleen and yourself! The first two landscapes are perhaps my favorites—very, very nice! (Kathleen did good!) The Depoe Bay area is my overall choice. I also favor the last image, Bancon Beach, for its minimalist simplicity. Nice as well.
