Autumn Morning
It isn't often that I am out and about with my camera in the morning. Lately I'm just not a morning person, when and why that changed is a mystery.
This morning Hubby and I had an early appointment and I managed to get some photograph's in morning light that I seldom have the opportunity to shoot in. It's helps that we're so late in the season, and today is the last day of Daylight savings, making this light available a bit later in the morning. It was very chilly, there was definitely frost on the neighboring lawns, surely signs of things to come!
As we left our appointment, the sun was beginning it's ascent... rising, almost above the trees.
We stopped at our favorite local coffee shop, where we pretty much had the place to ourselves.
Autumn flowers... in the early sunlight, these beautiful flowers caught my attention. Despite the time of the season beauty can still be found in gardens.
I was very surprised to see the Butterfly Bush beginning to bloom again. The leaves were full of dew and very colorful.
As I walked up the path and on to the front steps I was reminded that the season is slowing heading forward and it's time to focus on what lies ahead.
Today I'm feeling a bit more inspired than usual, maybe it's the season... maybe it's the blogs I've reading lately, more than likely it's a combination of both! Have a great weekend!

This is a bit of cheat shot.... I'm using for today, because Sharkbayte's shot made me do it!
