Day 331 – Dreamy Duck

Day 318 – Mini Ice Storm?

I think the sprinklers may have inadvertently come on early this morning. I thought Sweetie had shut them off for the winter, but I guess not. Anyway, I came out to icicles on the rose bushes which, surprisingly, still have most of their leaves.

My side-garden fence had some icicles too. I really like this shot.

Day 310 – Dried thistles against the sky

Terribly busy day, early sunset now that Daylight Saving Time is over, and then I came home to a sick husband. Rather than stumble around the house and disturb him, I’m posting this shot that I took the other day. Hope you like it.

Day 307 – Seed Pods

On my walk about the grounds today I was taken with way the afternoon sun brought out the texture of these delicate seed pods. If you look very closely, you can see the dark seed within the slightly open pod. Click on the image for a larger version.

Day 297 – Autumn Red

We had our first storm of the season come through overnight, and the foothills around Reno got a light dusting of snow, with much more at higher elevations, but there is still plenty of autumn to be seen.
