Autumn on the B Mountains

In early October Tracy and I took a leisurely drive through the Beaver Mountains. We followed the main road up to Big Flat and then found a tiny dirt back road to Puffer Lake. The sky was enormous and nearly turquoise. The leaves had become pilgrims making a splendid autumnal journey.

This was the only red foliage we saw that day. A lovely loner.

O! Deer! (Remember to click on all the pictures!)

Reflections

Over the last few months I've discovered the true reason I'm thrilled with the black granite counters in my kitchen -- the reflections. Here are a few of my favorites spanning May until early November. (Be certain to click on each picture to view it full-size) Enjoy!


The "Apricots and Cherries" picture is when I first saw the reflection in the granite and the warm light bouncing off the fruit and bowls and became fascinated. I love how the reflection of the white bowl spills invitingly off the picture. (I may have to do a watercolor!)




"Glowball" The dandelion pictures surprised me when I saw how the light changed dramatically by moving the camera just a few inches.

"Faerie Hats"


"Symmetry"



"Envy" I think that onion is trying to imitate the flower arrangement. Cheeky!
