New England Fall

One thing about this area.
  Fall is spectacular.
I forgot how long it can last here.
I have a month of photos and its still not done.
It may be getting cold, but the colors are hot.
Click on the photo below for the full effect of the view from my balcony.

This Side Of Fall

 
 Fall is moving slowly into our woods and fields.
A few trees are yellow tipped, and one or two are showing some lovely orange, but we have yet to see an eye popping landscape.
In the background, you can see a bit of color, and the chickens add some Fall color too.
Mia just wants to get in on the act.
I have a small supply of pumpkins and gourds to decorate in and around the house, even though I feel certain we will loose the pumpkins to a hungry animal (called deer).
I am "feeding" them one at a time so that we can stretch the enjoyment as much as possible.
 Nature is adding its muted color too, adding to the "antiqueness" of the farm.
I hope you are taking in the beauty of the season while it lasts.

Light Change, Color Change

The cold is starting to make a difference in the fields and gardens. Colors are changing. Annuals are blackening. Ducks are stopping briefly on their way to warmer ponds.
Its amazing how the cycle goes around.
The last dry morning, I managed to enjoy the last bit of the flora around the house. I was surprised with the clematis taking another shot at bloom.
When the Sheffield pink geraniums bloom, I know the season is about to end. Time to look around and enjoy the garden before the killing frost.

Sunrise

Good morning! But what do they say?

"Red sky at morning. Sailor take warning."
See the sparkles?
Here comes the rain.

Focus On The Yellow Tree


These shots were taken today, but over the course of several moments as I was working and walking. Didn't get the "perfect" shot, but wanted to share the morning's fixation - and the blue sky!

Turning To Gold

The vivid colors are disappearing but for the golds and yellows.
The grasses get browner each day.
Enjoying it while we can, as tonight we have more rain.
The last burst of color.
