The Sun Sleeps In....

As the earth keeps tilting our daily world also changes. Getting up at 7:30 in the morning means the sun is just coming up. In a week or so we will be getting up in the dark, or we will sleep in longer. Getting up with the sun seems like a good idea.

Bowls Are Full.....

Saturday Shots......

A hard freeze means bringing in the last of the zinnias. The leaves of the zinnias are n ow brown today.

I had to divide the flowers into two bouquets.  In the background you can see the zinnia patch. The hard freeze was in the middle of the night and it was warming up early morning.

Morning View......

The morning view is a sky full of clouds and a subtle glow. I don't think we will see sun though as we are sitting at 37 degrees F. this morning. The snow is suppose to start this evening.

Sedum Glow.......

Showy Red....

The front yard roses are still putting out blooms. I don't think trimming any of them back now will cause any more new buds.  I will probably start to clean them up in late October.

Out from the Clouds.......

The moon started its new phases but I never saw them. It has been many days with lots of clouds.  I remember seeing people on facebook sharing the sliver of a moon but I did not see that.  I looked out last night while dealing with the flag and looked up seeing it from the front steps.

As a photographer, I crop things spontaneously. I look at this photo and I wonder why I crop it this way.  I guess I want a special effect with it lopsided and the missing part of the moon is emphasized by the wider black space. I am probably not right about this but I just crop and go.
