Ten minutes to write. Less time to read.

I couldn’t resist. A couple days ago I took some photographs of our back yard as autumn waned and the chill of winter arrived. The chill always precedes the actuality.

This shot, taken in early morning mist, reminds me why I live here. The colors are glorious this time of year, although the colors are glorious all times. They’re just different from season to season, and fall is the most spectacular. Which is why it’s worth photographing and sharing.
