November is the least aesthetically pleasing month of the year, at least in New England. The bright colors of October have passed and the winter snow awaits more favorable conditions. Everything is brown and gray and our uncomfortable acclimation to freezing temperatures is an almost daily chore.
Nonetheless, since we are lucky enough to live on Earth, we can still find plenty of beauty and inspiration. We just have to look a little harder and dress a little warmer.
On this fine November morning I found plenty of beauty. I wish to share some of it with you.
An open farm and the early morning shadows.A happy dog. An extremely happy dog.No leaves means more sun and more blue skies in the forest.Remnants of acorns. Hopefully for the tree, the squirrels will forget where they hid some of them.
Some bright berries, a rare color this time of year.
Frosty leaves.Dogs resting in frosty leaves.A dog sniffing the air.The sun slowly rising in order to melt the night’s frost.Some sad leaves wishing their tree would release them already.A fallen leaf caught in a branch.Highways, main roads, side streets, and neighborhoods. (This is worth clicking to enlarge.)A robin deciding what to do with his day, free as a bird.Some gossiping sparrows.The farm with its vacated gardens which are now playgrounds and dining rooms for the wildlife.
Thanks for visiting.
