Sidelined most of week with hand injury but managed to get one photo I kinda liked yesterday. Do not chase the little critters much but this one would not go away.

Broke out a lens I seldom use, my70-210 but was pleasantly surprised with the results. Here is a study in patterns

We are coming up to my favorite season so it is time to start doing landscapes although the trees here have not yet started to turn. So I give you a field of soybeans.

My first Autumn leaf. This is my favorite season and will leave on a weekend odyssey to my favorite out door site, Alpine Lake,this coming weekend just to soak up the beauty of the season, might even take some pictures.

Lousy week. Cold and rainy. Too, too much work to do. had to postpone my trip because of the bad weather. Saturday morning we are on our way to breakfast and I pass this lonely flower shivering in the cold Autumn rain. Went back to car and fetched my camera and took this portrait while my wife held the umbrella to keep the camera dry.

What a good wife. Did she get wet?

We can' t pamper our assistants @ Marillyne. The next thing, they would be wanting union wages.

Autumn is such a fleeting season. Already half the leaves are off this tree and we saw snowflakes briefly this afternoon

My artist friend Walt, passed away from cancer a number of years ago. My favorite painting of his was an autumn woodlot scene. This is my best effort, to date, to duplicate it. As an aside, he would photograph a scene and then paint it later using his photo as a guide. I imagine that every year I will continue to try and duplicate the painting until it is absolutely as close to the original as possible. But until then, this one's for you Walt.

Bonus shot this week. I guess the Indian Summer weather last week tricked this cherry tree into bloom.

At one of my favorite eateries, this small tree graces their parking lot

Bonus shot of the leaves up close

Driving by the cemetery the other day I spotted this tree and came back to photograph it later in the day even though it was raining. One of the nicer trees I have captured this fall.

Bark, I say, bark!

Thanks @wev. This 7100 may be a keeper. Still have some paces to put it thru.
