Who Needs the Leaves?

sunrise

Nope, not a long post from me on this, the final day of October.

Many of us lament the loss of leaves this time of year. Me, too. And yet…as I mentally prepare for the transition to shorter days, I still welcome the reminders that nature doesn’t quit — offering take-your-breath-away-vignettes, with or without foliage.

That’s how I feel about the sunrise view I’m sharing with you from my backyard. A reminder that tree branches – even without leaves – are stunning, especially with a backdrop of early morning, pink, blue and orange brilliance.

No matter what’s on deck for you today, enjoy it all.

  2. You know the “winter is coming” ominous warning from Game of Thrones? To me (outside to context of the book series/show!) it was more of a cheery call 🎶 🎵 “winter is coming” 💃 (that’s dancing for joy 🤩)

    I love the foliage, the rain, the wind! 🍁 🌧 🌬

  4. I loved the colour in this photo. Nature puts on a wonderful show and I am glad where I live we have the seasons to appreciate and anticipate each one, and sometimes to celebrate when they are over!
