Eye Candy: Frosty, Misty Field


Thanksgiving is right around the corner. I'm thankful for family; lovely fall colours; turkey; and vistas like this one, which I captured last Thanksgiving.
Wishing you all the best!

Eye Candy: Mist, Frost and Sun



News is slow. I know that not everyone celebrates Christmas but, let's face it, even if you don't get a visit from Santa, it's hard to avoid the juggernaut that is The Holidays. For instance, if you attempted to cross Bloor Street this past Sunday, Santa and his sleigh might have mowed you down.
So I guess that there might be a lull in news right now as everyone takes a deep breath and a wee break prior to the onslaught.
Given that there are no tasty neighbourhood tidbits to share, I thought that I would post an autumn pic.
I'm not quite ready to say good bye to my favourite time of year. I like the subtlety of this photo; all the season's glory doesn't belong just to gaudy scarlets and golds.
Cheers,

Vanessa

Eye Candy: Misty Dissipation

Time to bring the mist Eye Candy pics to an end, so I thought I'd finish the series with one that includes the sun rising high enough the burn it off.
On to winter pics, I suppose, judging by the dusting of snow on the ground this a.m.
Cheers,

Eye Candy: Study in Brown and Mist

Well, I certainly can feel autumn's demise in the air. But I'm hanging on, stubbornly, and ignoring all the Christmas cards, carols and glitter in the stores already.
One of the reasons that I like fall so much is that it provides beauty no matter what the weather. Rain is lovely falling through amber and scarlet leaves -- and also makes them positively sparkle afterword. Sun makes everything light up in jewel tones. And scudding clouds, like those we've had lately, create a mood of... well, I don't have a word for it. But it's as though something dramatic is going to happen. Portentous?
Anyway, enjoy, enjoy while it's here and stave off Kris Kringle for now. There's plenty of December for that.
Cheers,
Vanessa
PS this picture is one of a series taken at my sister's farm during Thanksgiving weekend.

Eye Candy: Misty Red Trees


Hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving weekend! I was away at my sister's farm and took some pics, which I'll share with you during the next few weeks.
Last year, frost was the theme of the pics, it seems. This year I took a lot of great shots one misty morning.
I love the red swathed in cottony white in this shot. The tinge of pink in the sky is the remainder of dawn colours.
Enjoy!

Eye Candy: Autumn Morning Mist

I don't know if I've published this pic before and, frankly, I don't care.
Autumn is my absolute favourite time of year and I am hotly anticipating Thanksgiving weekend, when this will be my view.
Enjoy!
