Lensbaby Love Blog Circle: November

I went into the florist's shop intending to purchase some blue or purple flowers

 for my Rainbow Macro Floral Project/Newton's Spectrum.

I came out of the shop with flora in autumn hues.

I guess I couldn't let go of the beautiful colors of the season.

So, for this month's bit of Lensbaby Love first up you'll find some

 Australian Protea.

Next, the rich color of dyed, seeded Eucalyptus.

And finally, leaves from our woods - 

the real autumn deal straight from Mother Nature!

Next, please follow the link in our Lensbaby Love Blog Circle

 to the inspiring work of Caroline Jensen.

Enjoy!

Unexpected!

Sometimes we find beauty in the most unexpected places...

beside the garage, within the rocks -

a fresh dusting of snow upon autumn remnants. 

Happy creating to you!

Autumn Plunder

We're in the depths of a north woods winter already...

but, please humor me today as I turn back the clock of time a few weeks

and picture flickering sunlight filtering down through treetop canopies

onto a patchwork bed of leaf litter.

It was among this leaf litter that I found these macro wonders.

My favorite is the first image.

This gem was painted with touches of slug slime, or some such,

which shimmered with silvery opalescence.

I hope you're enjoying the season,

whatever the weather!

November Dawn

It was early, and crisp.

Mist was swirling across the lake as golden 

light cut through the haze.

A magical bit of lighting,

there one moment and gone the next.

Wishing you great light,

if only for a moment!

Frosty

Frosty mornings and pleasant days describe weather in the north woods of late.

For those in the US, I hope the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday 

finds you with much to be thankful for.

Blessings to you!

Ten Million Drops

Mother Nature has been dishing up a variety of weather lately.

We've had rain, fog, frost, and snow.

Today we're back to rain, so I thought I'd share with you ten million raindrops,

 give or take a few thousand.

What does the weather look like in your part of the world?

Wishing you a week filled with variety ~ the good kind!
