A Magical Season


This lovely season always catches my breath. 


Tawny grasses, russets and golds...


Glowing embers....


and bright bursts of flames. 


Gilded, still mornings, 
softened by mist.


Scarlet, magenta, 

 deep green and chartreuse, 



Coral and saffron,

cerise and sienna...


Amber and topaz,

persimmon and quince. 


How do you describe such heavenly hues? 


Nature's splendor is beyond mortal words. 


And so I am spellbound......


and rendered mute. 


Lost in a magical world. 

xoxo


Thank you, Dear Friends for coming along.

And thank you for your lovely thoughts.

You color my world beautiful.



xoxo

    Pretty, pretty pictures and a lovely share. Always a blessing to stop in and say hello. Enjoy a beautiful day. My oldest daughter just came back from Spokane. She was training for her new job. She enjoyed it and my son-in-law was able to get a few days away from his work to join her so they spent a nice weekend in Seattle too. Have a lovely weekend Karen.

    Breath taking! Honestly, your photography talents are calendar-worthy.

    Since it's still very much summer here in Texas (temperatures in the 90's), I particularly love the cool, colorful fall landscape photos you've posted.

    As always, your blog is such a treat!!

    Your photos are magical, Karen, and could be postcards, and/or notecards. They're just gorgeous and make me wish I could enjoy all of it with you.
    I also read your post on your dear pets...you're lucky to have them and they're luckier to have you as their caregiver!

    I so agree there is just something magical and beautiful about this time of year, and you have captured it so nicely. Love how the colors just glow and are so intense. We are going out today to see if we can see any color, we are seeing little hints of it around here.
