Shadow Play

The light right now is so lovely. 

 

The shadows long, the streaks from the fading sun are as soft and gentle as the temperature has been these past few weeks. 

 

I love how the light shifts with the seasons. I know that it is because of photography that I see these shifts more clearly.

 

Thank you again, photography, for making me more awake to this world and my surroundings.....

seasonal

My in-laws are stealthy dropping off bags and bags of apples at our door.

 

At least one zucchini has gone unseen in the garden, and is almost larger than my baby girl when it is found.

 

I need a sweatshirt for a good part of the morning. 

I do love this time of year, like a lot.
Even the name of this blog comes from a poem about it.
(Autumn is a second spring where every leaf is a flower. Albert Camus).

And you, how are you settling into the new season?

I am ready

it's bare feet and sweat shirt weather. 

green grass and golden leaves.

hot coffee with honey and milk in the morning and ice water in the afternoon.

October, I think I am ready for you.

happy SPRING!

I had a lunch date with my mom yesterday.
When she came into the office, she had a bunch of daffodils for me to put on my desk.

They make my desk so cheerful and you should see how happy they are today.
They have fully opened and are pushing their faces towards the sunny window light.
Thanks Mom!

cold and hot

From this on Monday, our first real snow storm of the season, to this...

The bulbs pushing through, the crocus opened their pretty yellow heads and it is nearly 65 degrees out today.

We enjoyed sunning ourselves a little bit too this weekend.
