Autumn Equinox


like a sweet lingering kiss
two seasons
Summer and Autumn have been dancing


mingling
celebrating


communicating


like a season within themselves
perhaps we could call it "Sum-umn"
fun


 two seasons summoning a new season

Autumn is here and colors abound


rainbows


lake stones


a few 

alpine flowers still flourish


critters still mating


a time of harvest and celebrating
gone to seed

magical light


beautiful sunsets

i wish one and all a lovely change of season


Happy Equinox

Italian Mountains


sharing some high mountain beauty with you
I wish i knew the name of these Italian mountains
we were in the north, not far from Switzerland
afternote:
Dagmar from Barefoot from Heaven 
tells me these are the Dolomieten (Dolomites) mountains
thank you Dagmar xo
 

my sister, Wyndi drove us up up up 
into the mountains
my niece, Sofia and I had to stop over and over to take photographs!

Wyndi thank you for sharing the beauty of Italy with me!

Kokanee Salmon


in the clear creek
they swam
upstream


their colors a sight to behold


the ritual of
spawning


in deeper waters; an unedited artful image:
 

it was such a thrill to get to see them!

Italy's Clear Mountain Water


Italy's high mountain water
and colorful rocks


sparkling clear


bubbling music for all to hear


ripples and reflections a delight


beauty in life always feels right

Welcome to Italy


I thought I would share some Italian beauty with you


I am here visiting my sister and family


I love that every time I looked out at Lake Garda it wears a new cloak
whether a new color or texture 
from 
waves of deep green brown big enough to make me think it a sea
to silvery calm under the fat blue moon


if you would enjoy seeing the frescoes (paintings) I have found on some  Italian buildings
visit my other (art) blog:
