Nature Is Metal

Out On A High Note 📽 by @garrett.erc The sounds of the forest, like a stone dropped in a pond creates a ripple, begin when something moves and shakes the air: leaves rustling, a deer snapping a twig, or a predator catching a hard earned lunch. Whatever the cause, the subsequent vibrations caused by these actions push air molecules, creating waves that travel until they reach an ear. In the wilderness, most sounds are small, like tossing a pebble in the same pond, because survival often means making your way as quietly as possible. The louder ones, like the blood curdling death rattle of a fox’s kill, rarely exceed 50-60 decibels, fading within 10-20 meters. A 2019 study on forest acoustics showed trees, leaves, and soil absorb sound waves, especially high-pitched ones, dampening them quickly, unlike open fields where sound travels farther. Even something like the roar of a bear, peaking at around 90 decibels, can travel up to 100 meters, but dense vegetation scatters these waves, keeping most of the forest carnage silent to distant ears. This natural muffling means the everyday death and struggle of the wild stay hidden, their faint ripples rarely, if ever, reach us. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Nature Is Metal is powered by you!

Those clouds! 🤩🚴🏽‍♂️ Perfect day for a bike ride through the beautiful green vineyards of Solvang, California. ☁️🌳 I put my @Insta360 X5 to the test on this bumpy adventure to see what kind of shots I could get using the extended invisible selfie stick. 🎥 It’s always fun to play with 360 footage because this camera truly captures everything, allowing for endless creativity when editing. If you’re struggling to figure out how to use your footage or spice it up a bit, here’s what I do. ⬇️ 💻 For longer clips with lots to see in every direction, I like experimenting in the Insta360 Studio by reframing the scene and changing the FOV (field of view) from “Linear” to “MegaView” and “Tiny Planet” view. I used this technique throughout this edit and love how it sets me up for transitions to connect multiple clips in a creative way. Pro Tip: I typically add the “fade-in fade-out” transition between my keyframes to create smoother motion when changing FOVs. #insta360 #Insta360X5 #360camera #Solvang #Biking #adventure #videoideas #SantaYnezValley

Blue Whale charging full speed ahead! What an amazing day it was with @gonewhalewatching! Erica and I were out on the scouting boat today and found at least ten Blue Whales, most of which were in range of our 2.5 hour trips! To that point, Captain Michael on the Hana Hou spent time with 3 Blue Whales, as well as a Fin Whale on the 11am trip today! The weather this week is looking top tier, and the Blue Whales are arriving in San Diego! While nothing can ever be guaranteed with wild animals, this would be an excellent week to come out with us to search for the largest animal on earth! For tickets visit: www.gonewhalewatching.com

Captured between the storied walls of Shaaz Jung’s ancestral home and the untamed beauty of the wilderness, this is a tribute to the Italian heritage of @canali’s Spring Summer ’25 collection. A dialogue between craftsmanship and landscape, where natural tones, tactile fabrics and soft constructions reflect a new way of dressing — one rooted in observation, freedom and quiet precision. #Canali1934 #ShaazJung #CanaliSS25 Photography: @meister.photo_
