Fence Sitting


We are sitting on the fence between seasons.
Autumn's brilliance has faded into mellow, rusty leaf carpets and 
pale oak leaves tenaciously hanging onto the trees.




While, winter has been showing her face here and there - 
frost, sleet, and big, showy flakes.




The fence sitting won't last much longer.....

Wishing you a happy and creative week!

  2. Lovely captures of sparkles on those leaves. Your leaves are getting very much darker compared to last week. I wonder how they would be like next week. Even a darker tone or totally white?

  5. Love the concept of fence-sitting. It's so exactly true - where we are. Somewhere in between the colors of autumn and the whites of winter still to come! Wonderful post!

  6. Autumn is somewhat "hanging on for dear life" here too. Not much longer I am sure.

    These are beautiful photographs Anna. I love the frost detail you have captured, and the light is just beautiful.

    Thank you so much for sharing at The Creative Exchange today.

    Have a wonderful day!

  8. You do frost beautifully. We do get frost here a few times during the winter so I'm going to keep your shots in mind when that happens.

  15. Ciao Anna. Love this frozen sparkling beauties! I love frosty days, when the sun comes out. Unfortunately here in Scotland it does not happen so often. I really miss autumn in my home-country (Italy). Have a happy week and thanks for your visit, much appreciated. :)

  24. Lovely, lovely photos. Frost always makes the most mundane object sparkle. The detail in your shots is fabulous.

  25. We are straddling the same seasons here. The signs are all over. Grey skies, branches exposed, ice crystals peek-a-booing in the early morning hours.
    I like the way the light is gracing your images. It's the very essence of morning.
    Cheers!

  26. In many ways this is my favorite time of year....sitting on the fence:) I love that we had snow one week and then a week later there were some (not me!) swimming in the ocean! These are absolutely beautiful images of this time of year. Enjoy your week!

  27. you capture the loveliest shades of light in your photos. it's always a treat to visit you and see your splendid. the frosty oak leaves are delicious. I love the bronze colors that linger in the oaks and even prefer them I think to the wilds of the reds. autumn is slowly fading but winter's beauty awaits. happy week to you Anna. and a thank you for your continued encouragement and support.
