Diffusing light and misty fog rise through the valley like a blanket quietly covering the landscape. The forest will change from green to black and eventually the sky colors will give way to moon and stars.

Red is the color of December

Gaillardia pulchella — Blooms April to June across much of Texas. When viewed en masse, the brilliant combination of red, orange, and yellow resembles brightly woven blanket, hence the name. Also called firewheel. Saw this growing in the Houston Arboretum.

Snow reveals the delicate beauty and details of the grasses and wild plants we generally ignore the rest of the year.

Little branch

Blanket flowers

Blanket flowers are long lived and vibrant flowers. This year these plants have been exploding with new growth. Once I started looking at the various photographs I've taken during their stages of development, I decided that this little blossom was still quite a baby flower. Perhaps that is why gardening shops are called nurseries.

Always creates a sense of wonder...last year still I'm afraid

This visit to Omori on the western shore of lake Taupo was for sunrise but there wasn't much evidence of it. The heavy cloud created a mood of its own.

The main thing is colurful...

Exactly one year ago I flew to Iceland. It was a gift that the country was covered with a thick blanket of snow

Es wird kalt und wir frieren nicht gern.

Aren't we dressed nicely?

Some snow visited us yesterday so I decided to take the camera out.It was still cold but sunny so my journey only took me to the neighbourhood cementary.I was able to take a couple pics.

Gailardia....Blowing in the wind

Blanket flowers (Gaillardia pulchella) on the grounds of the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum in Tucson, Arizona.

Who can tell where kitten ends and blanket begins

from my garden...

A solid mass of cloud covered the sky with streaks of colour for sunrise from Koolewong Waterfront on the Central Coast, NSW, Australia.

I wasn't sure we would even get many wild flowers on the Grand Mesa this year with the late late late thaw we had up there. (10,000 plus feet) But, we ended up with a beautiful flower show. Now, almost over but still blazes of glory adorn the hillsides and plateaus.

Colorado, Grand Mesa

Located at Serendipity.

I was on the road this morning at 4am. As I drove on the back roads the light began to reveal the coming day and with it a blanket of mist covering a rolling landscape.

This is a four-image Pano
