Earth and sky, woods and fields, lakes and rivers, the mountain and the sea, are excellent schoolmasters, and teach some of us more than we can ever learn from books. ~ John Lubbock
my dog, sunny, is 13 and is showing his age day by day, we walk much slower now… yesterday’s hike was perfect
i fell in love with these old telephone poles… i adore the random sizes and the fact that they don’t go in a straight line
it was raining yellow leaves all afternoon
it is so hard to capture a leaf falling, this is my best attempt so far… i’ll get a better shot one of these days
we sat by the banks and watched the leaves fall in the water and drift down the river
sunrise thought about a swim… just thought about it
i was mesmerized by the lacey leaf patterns reflecting on the surface
it took a while to catch just the right shadow shot as the leaves drifted by, but it was one of those afternoons that it did not matter how long it took to do anything in particular
it was a magical day
it’s been one of the most beauty ✻ filled falls i’ve ever seen, i wish is would last for so much longer ♥
what do you wish would last longer?

What gorgeous shots! Those woods look magical… I wish autumn would last longer. We’ve had some bad storms and lots of the leaves have been blown off even before they have turned colour…

What a beautiful autumn afternoon. Reminds me – exactly – of the daily walks I do with my best girl (who’s a dog – of course!)…

I really enjoyed those photographs. They captured the sense and tranqillity of an autumnal walk so well. Looked like a beautiful day and Sunny must have really loved it

The colors you’ve depicted are beautiful. I think dogs should last longer than they do.

Just beautiful. You’ve captured the season so well. Sunny is a gorgeous creature.

Your Sunrise is so beautiful. How I wish this day could last forever for you…. but you have frozen the moment in time and in your heart. I love this post.
