I think it is not.

A riot

Breathtaking colour and form awaited me this crisp, glorious morning. I am so thankful to see such beauty, and to be able to share it with you.

Gold

I was compelled to stop and take in the glory of a golden morning. What a blessing and a privilege to see such beauty.

Ablaze

One tree, gloriously ablaze in this bush across the harvested field, peeks through a small opening to let the world know that it bows to the inevitable, the turning of the seasons.

Stop and look

I passed through the gate on my way to the car this morning. This work of art clung to the gate I could have glanced at it, said ‘neat’ and kept moving. Instead I stopped to admire and give thanks.

The more I look, the more I see.

Cheerful
