A pinhole photograph tribute to our favorite friendly ghost who has taken form as a tree. We have aptly named her Boo. Through the years she has lost her arms but remains standing nonetheless. Happy Halloween….Boo.
Photographed using Holga and Zeroimage pinhole cameras and Kodak Tmax 100 iso film.
Just as this Bee said adios to the flower we have said adios to our prolonged indian summer. A few light frosts and the lack of sunlight have done in the veggie garden for the year. Yet compared to previous years the mild fall allowed things to grow a few weeks longer and that means one last bowl of fresh tomato soup for dinner tonight.
We seemed to have settled into a very late fall like weather pattern as of late with sunshine appearing mid-morning then giving way to cloudy afternoon skies. We spotted this good looking Red Tailed Hawk on one of those cloudy afternoons perched on the remnants of a very fall looking tree.
A female Mallard settled down for a late afternoon siesta. As the days get shorter and shorter a nice little midweek siesta seems in order.
A colorful gateway just seemed to be asking me to follow a lesser traveled path into the forest. Did I listen..yes I did, and had some fun along the way. Along Clear Creek, Denver, CO.
Ripe and bright-red these berries look ready for picking. Birds where are you?
Getting eye to eye with a local magpie who was hanging out on picnic table waiting for lunch to arrive. Unfortunately picnic season is over. However I am fairly confident the ever resourceful magpie will find a bite to eat somewhere.
Just when you think you are sneaking up nicely to get a good close up this hawk takes notice with a 180 degree turn on the head. I wonder what it would be like to have eyes in the back of your heads. Maxwell wildlife refuge, Maxwell NM.
Almost like a drip from a leaky faucet this plant was sowing seeds slow and one at a time on a windless afternoon. One let loose and another follows. A wonderful display of flow in slow motion.
A palette of an indian summer in a nearby woodland on a very warm mid-October day. These are the types of scenes that I find easy to see but hard to photograph. More of a painting in the mind.
