Disentangled

After disentangling itself from a row of trees, the moon sails through an evening sky.

Evening, Lambton County

The rounded, soft shapes of the hay bale and trees contrast with the sharp, angularity of the corn stubble.

Working

Beneath a rising moon on a glorious late autumn evening, a tiny dot of humanity, a farmer, continues working.

Serene

A recent sunset was tranquil, restful, calming.

Dull?

This season’s colours are muted. The sky is often cloudy, blue-grey for days at a time. Fields are shades of tan, brown, dun. Dull? Perhaps, to some sensibilities. My sensitivity to shades and grades of colour is heightened, sharpened. I try to appreciate these muted scenes for their own beauty.

Blanket

A light white blanket softens the corduroy of a harvested cornfield.

Tree in Field, Chatham-Kent

This tree stands, living through snow, rain, cold, heat, anything and everything thrown at it. It doesn’t rail against, revile, complain about, whine about the onslaught. Life is what it is, to be accepted and dealt with.

Tendrils

Tendrils of snow fall through the evening sky, evaporating before reaching ground level.

Long shadows

While the time change can be discombobulating, it can also bring a photographer new opportunities. I was unlikely to have captured this image before ‘falling back’.

It’s good to appreciate new opportunities, though they my be clothed in inconvenience.
