under the cover of shade
and light
a red leaf
under cover
protection of branches
a mushroom dries
changing form and chemical
to become just right food
for:
the squirrel
sits
under cover of golden Tamarack needles and branches
nearly hidden in shade
eating a dry mushroom
under cover
of the thick forest
a rosy mushroom thrives
bathed in soft evening light
under the cover of clouds
light gently caresses
Autumn

Lovely Ariane has hosted DC this weekend
with the theme: Cover
for me, what is held, covered, protected
came to mind
thank you Ariane

Just beautiful seasonal shots in nature. Each one has its own charm, so it's difficult to have a favourite! That squirrel is darned cute though!
ReplyDeleteOh, Tammie, your narrative is as lovely as your photography, which fills my eyes.
ReplyDeleteThe early autumn is more beautiful when it is presented by you
ReplyDeleteand your arguments (photos).
Have a good one, Tammie!

Tammie, these photographs are delicious. Such crisp clarity. Beautiful vision you have.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots - and poetry!
ReplyDeleteI love popping in to your "other" blog Tammie. Lovely photographs of the most lovely place. We've got a few squirrels here in the garden and they love climbing our neighbour's enormous bronze beech and eating the seeds. Then they chuck the seed pods down a my cats and laugh and scamper away. :D
ReplyDeleteHello,Tammie.

WOW!!! These are all so beautiful Tammie but the red leaves are my fav, just amazing. Such a treat to enjoy your photos. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat peaceful and beautiful photos! We see the mushroom cycle here too. During a windy day, the mushrooms that the squirrels have placed in the tree boughs to dry rain down on us!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos. Love the one with the squirrel. - eric

Such remarkable beauty.
ReplyDeleteUnder cover.
What fun you've had seeking all these out!
ReplyDeleteDear Tammie - I always wonder which would be better to call your blog, photographic poem or poetic photograph. Your words and photos synchronize to create a magical story. I’m marveled at your mind eyes to find such nice things fitting to the theme “cover” and your photographic skills to capture the light. I especially like the wine red leaf and the squirrel.

Biggest gasp in the world. Could you hear me in your neck of the woods? And that squirrel -- my favorite but really, how do you pick a favorite from such a fabulous array!
