Parade of Colour

 

                                                                       Sumacs 

Hi everyone,

Here we are surrounded by beauty. "All good things come to those who wait." Apparently still rings true. So pleased to witness the late autumn show. Nature is full of surprises. What a beautiful world we live in.



Generally I try and take photos off the beaten path, but not this time.  Absolutely adore these colours—straight out of nature's paint box.

                                                          
                                                                         Stunning


What a difference a day can make.
October 30th. Snow disappeared by early afternoon.



                       
Hallowe'en tonight so those ghostly looking rain drops could mean spooky goings on are afoot.

When I was a child I was taught to spell Hallowe'en with an apostrophe. Does anyone else remember this? It's not something you see anymore, but I really like the way it looks. Lends a touch of mystery to the proceedings.

                       Mr. Edgar Allan Poe--first airing, I think, of a drawing from several                                                                               years ago.
                         
Quoth the Raven “Nevermore.”  E.A. Poe.

Have a safe and Happy Hallowe'en!

Here a pumpkin, there a pumpkin...

There are pumpkins everywhere these days. I've seen so many types: huge, small, and the unusual. In the spirit of the season, I thought I'd share a few pics, along with a short video.



We recently went to the village and saw a spectacular display...aptly named Pumpkin Inferno. What you will see is a small example from 6 thousand carved pumpkins, including Jack in the boxes, huge carved archways, Chinese lanterns, monarch butterflies, etc.

Taken with the flash on..so much nicer if taken in the dark, but tricky to take without a tripod.

A parliament of owls.

I've been having a problem with my internet connection, so unfortunately I can't upload another video, or check to see if the one I uploaded works. I hope it does.

So I'll close with a drawing of Edgar Allan Poe; he definitely fits in with the  season. Who can forget his poem The Raven.
Have a safe and happy Hallowe'en!
