Cold & Sunny

 

I cant say I am a fan of the colder weather but it does make it easier to cope with when the sun is shining !

I like the different canvas that the colder weather brings , frost , Icicles , snow and fuzzy birds and critters !

I love photographing Fungi each cluster takes on many different shapes , markings and colour !

As the cold wind blows these little guys sit in our tree all puffed up whilst they soak up some warmth from what strength the sun offers them !

Whether  the air is crisp , clear and cold or warm , rainy or sunny  nature changes it’s ways and looks with the seasons and that  gives me a new canvas to photograph and capture all year long !

Frosty Mornings

 

It is that time of year now  where the nights are clear and cold and frost forms on everything .

DSC_5130

The frost starts out light and as each passing cold night it gets heavier and  thicker .

                                    I love the frost when it twinkles in the sunrise !

         It’s amazing how it forms all over everything out lining each object  as it clings to it  creating little diamond's in the ruff !

DSC_5154

        Gives us dedicated snap happy  photographers a different canvas  to work with  each and every time it frosts over  !

Beautiful Fall Weather

 

It has been fantastic weather with sun , warm air , temps of 22ºC  or  71ºF with fresh cool breezes . I have never known this late in Oct to ever be this lovely .  We still have some summer birds hanging around and some winter birds have returned !

Sun Set & Sun Rise Over The Valley

As the orange sun set shines on the trees of the valley  and dark clouds in the background roll by the sight of it looks like a painting !

          I was on the front porch when taking these photos and this is also the scenery  I see every day  from my kitchen window as the day comes to an end  with beauty  and starts with beauty !

Light Morning Frost

 

I am the type of person who likes  to photograph just about anything. I will go out early in the mornings in my PJ’s to get photos before what ever it is I see is gone like this morning .

The sun was rising and I noticed it was starting to melt some of the frost already so I had to get my frost photos quick .

                    I love the way the sun makes the frost twinkle as it reflects off of it !
