A radiant sunset mixed with autumn colors
Judging from your many wonderful comments posted on my blogs, I know that seasonal views of my farm are very popular. As I stated recently, the autumn colors haven't been terribly exciting this year due to mildew and tar spot fungus on the leaves of many trees. But there is still so much beauty to appreciate as the winter months approach. The Sunday before last, I was very happy to be home, to capture a most radiant sunset that appeared quite surreal. It's always a great feeling to be in the right place at the right time with camera in hand. Enjoy!
-
- The setting sunlight cast a golden glow on the tree tops.
-
- The weeping willows were quickly dropping their leaves right before my eyes.
-
- It was truly spectacular!
-
- The woods were filled with shades of orange, yellow, amber, and brown. That hairy vine climbing up the tree is a poison ivy vine and should really be severed low to the ground – note to Shaun.
-
- Strolling past a rushing brook with the vibrant pink of a burning bush in the background.
-
- My horses were also enjoying this splendid sunset.
-
- Zoom in – hello beauties!
-
- So many shades and colors – and such interesting shapes of trees
-
- I’m standing low down at the farm looking up towards the stable. All these recent tree plantings are growing nicely.
-
- And that’s my house in the distance.
-
- These beech trees are spectacular and they will become more stately as they mature.
-
- Another glowing tree as the sun sinks lower
-
- The view from the stables in the fading light
-
- This little tree seems hesitant to give up its green. By the way, it’s a Persian parrotia – a relative of witch hazel.
-
- As the leaves drop from the crab apple trees, you can see that they are laden with fruit.
