Hurricane Sandy

Much of the East Coast is preparing for "Hurricane Sandy". For the past few days the weather forecasters have been predicting a catastrophic storm like we haven't seen in mega years.
I went on a little photo shoot this morning, I wanted to capture some of the fall leaves before they're blown from their branches.
These are a few, followed by a shot of the sky in Blairstown,
New Jersey.
I expect we'll loose our electricity, and experience Mother Nature in one of her wicked moods combined with a Full Hunter's Moon!
Love and Hugs.

A Little Golden Village

The Autumn leaves that surround us in the hills of Northwestern New Jersey have a very strong concentration of golden yellow this year. I took this photo at Millbrook Village recently, and I love the contrast of the  blackening barn boards and the yellow leaves. I've noticed in my travels that I am particularly fond of those huge trees with the dark black tree trunks and the yellow leaves. And, those beautiful black horse fences with the backdrop of  crisp, green grass. And the contrast of beautiful black cows and crisp green grass. It's a beautiful season! May it be sweet to thee!

When The Green Fern Turns Red

"I'm sure the red fern has grown
and has covered the two little mounds.
I know it is still there, hiding its secret
beneath those long, red leaves,
but it won't be hidden from me
for part of my life 
is buried there too.
Yes, I know it is still there,
for in my heart I believe
the legend of the sacred red fern."
~Wilson Rawls, Where The Red Fern Crows, Ch. 20

Seeing Red

"An optimist is a person who sees a green light everywhere,
while a pessimist sees only the red stoplight...
the truly wise person is colorblind."

October

"October is the fallen leaf,
but it is also a wider horizon
more clearly seen.
It is the distant hills once more in sight,
and the enduring constellations above them once again."
~Hal Borland
