End of the Seasonal Sightings:


Autumn…the year’s last, loveliest smile.
 William Cullen Bryant


Although in North American, the dates of the season are the same, the season is different depending on where you live.  The fall colors peak at different times in different areas, most, at their most colorful in October and early November.


The Autumn colors peaked here in mid-October, and by the time December 1st came around, most of the leaves were either raked up, or in nooks and crannies of our properties, only to be seen, when the wind blows them about.  When I look around where I live, most have now disappeared, and the ones left, are heavy and wet from laying under the seasons first snows.


Although for me, the first snow in December is also a late year smile, for the most part, the sun has now turned shy, and only peaks out now and then, with no predictability and far less power that it boasted during the summer. 


These Autumn images sat in my folder the last few months, and although I used to save them, now post, and clean out the folder to make room for wintertime visuals.  So, for the next few months, it's time to bring on the barren tree's, the ice, the snow and visions of the winters we dream of, full of beautiful, naked men of course.
