The Weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Starting 8 September 2025 Any Brand

This is the weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Any Brand thread where we invite you to show your own pictures. It is collegial in that it is a pleasant and friendly place among photographers to share.

I will begin this thread each Monday (Pacific Standard Time) to give each of you all the chance to share your weekend photos with us, for those that follow a regular work week schedule and choose to do it that way. But the pictures can be taken at any time with any camera, including your cell phone. It's open to all skill levels from beginners to advanced. The images posted can be anything from casual snaps to extraordinary. I'll be sure to comment to each of your photos, if you choose to share. Replies from others are encouraged also.

The intent of this thread to mainly to just show photos in a relaxed way and to generate replies or comments about them. Generally I'm not planning to critique any image unless asked. But I or we may ask things about a photo that may develop into a discussion, always being friendly and helpful. It has been a request that I mention this and from what I've learned from past experience: Can you ask a member first if they would mind you editing their photos?

Remember it's all about the enjoyment of taking pictures regardless of what we have. We can learn from each. Please share any tips or techniques too. A narrative sometimes also helps. Thanks everyone for your participation.

Subject: Mt. Shasta

While traveling through California last month, I always like to photograph Mt. Shasta from the highway. I took these from the car as a passenger. I hope you like this sequence. Since the sun was setting, the colors became more red as we drove north.

That looks like a perfect region for some nice hiking😍

Recap about the last few days: Summer, summer and now rain
But we still do enjoy our holiday.
A few photos :

Photobygms,

Yes, hiking around Mt. Shasta could be a lot of fun. There's so much to see and do and not enough time to do all of it. 😀 I also would like to hike around Castle Crags in addition, which is also in Northern California.

Photobygms,

You must have done a lot of hiking. That tree with the red leaves looks spectacular. We are starting to have some of our leaves turn colors too.

We did go out for a hike every day😀
Today is the last day around here at Winterberg Germany, those will follow today at a later time today.
Tomorrow we will be going back to the Netherlands but not yet back to home😇

The last few photos from the Winterberg area, a very cloudy day but good enough for a last hiking tour.
Parked our car at a hiking trail head near a small village called Altastenberg and went our for a last time.
