the light we have in the netherlands during late fall and winter is absolutely amazing. already at 4 o'clock you have beautiful light.
right from the lady there's a field, that's why that part of the path is so illuminated compared to the foreground. i saw this light and waited for someone to walk into my photograph.
have a great (rest of the) weekend
Amber poses for a few fall portraits when a sudden gust of wind sent leaves flying every where. We captured this moment in the university area of Missoula.

Well, it's fall and flickr is starting to get inundated with autumn pictures. So what's one more, right?

The first signs of fall, I spotted near the end of August. A quick search through books and internet, and I couldn't figure out what plant this is. I never really studied botany, but if someones knows, I'd love to find out...

sometimes we fall. we may fall fast. we may fall slow. we may have been pushed. we may have flung ourselves into it. the only thing that matters is if we pick ourselves up and climb back up. did this in my brother's amazing basement.
We enlarged our garden last fall in preparation for a food-growing frenzy this summer. I can't wait! We have plans for all kinds of trellises and veggies we've never grown before.
We took this photo for a magazine article about us and our lifestyle that never ran. I am kind of cranky about the whole thing, as I did a bunch of work for it and then the person at the magazine has ignored my inquiries since November. So, here's the photo. Poop on them. :)

“But then fall comes, kicking summer out on its treacherous ass as it always does one day sometime after the midpoint of September, it stays awhile like an old friend that you have missed. It settles in the way an old friend will settle into your favorite chair and take out his pipe and light it and then fill the afternoon with stories of places he has been and things he has done since last he saw you.”
-Stephen King
For there had been an apple fall
As complete as the apple had given man.
The ground was one circle of solid red.
May something go always unharvested!
May much stay out of our stated plan,
Apples or something forgotten and left,
So smelling their sweetness would be no theft.

*Image was created at The Old Mission Dam located in Mission Trails Park of San Diego, California. No photoshop...just nature and a sepia camera adjustment.
This shot in the Rockies is above Como, CO on the old D, SP & P RR grade on the way up to the Divide after the biggest Boreas Pass reversal in direction back toward the west and above Roberts Cabin. Here you can see the grade! The old grade (Denver, South Park & Pacific Railroad - early paper RRs included Pacific in their names) shows a rebuilt tourist section along the original grade as long as the road left the old grade temporarily. Even in Google view, it looks like they scattered cinders for authentication and for effect. I bet the old Mason-Bogie locomotives blasted plenty of cinders on their way up here. First, before heading up the old grade, boogie your way around Como, the panning camps in the valley above (Tarryall Camp) and especially the old RR Hotel if you have not had breakfast! Go empty! They will fill you beyond capacity. Under order.
This shot shows the spot where friends and family dined at a card table up by the rise on the curve before the grade was rebuilt. I have been over the old dirt road recovered from the rail bed several times before. I remember camping outside on the western approach to Boreas when it snowed on me one night years ago. That was the most comfy night I ever spent coved with snow! Look for the old track loop on your way up the east side; it's still there and in the next post. Even in Google view, it looks like they scattered cinders for authentication. It is easily found (even the narrow gauge tracks) on Google maps - Boreas Pass. Stop and snap your own takes of all about you can find! Frankly, friends and family dined at a card table up on the curve before the grade was rebuilt. Ace views there. Boogie your way up there!
Sooner or later, it always comes time to get up and move on. Get your back brushed off before getting in the vehicle. Mine was loaded by then as I got more and more comfortable on my aspen leaf blanket. I needed to be there all August and fall instead of here!
Some of these spots are in the Rockies are best found by looking around. Because of our viscous fall, we have to do that now anyway if we want pictures as many Rocky (and Sierra Nevada) areas are on fire and the skies are the pits, Brad and otherwise. This is another for my return to another autumn series this badly lost fall of cloudless skies of fire haze from that squirrely fake global warming. They fear the Wyo and Colorado Chambers/Poudre fire may eventually merge making a major mess. Will that torch the Old Roach tie hacking area? Massive fires ahoy!
