A beautiful photo of the River Wye, courtesy of Stuart Aken. Stuart’s collection of landscape pictures is impressive; you can visit his site by clicking the link above.
Penticton’s rose garden was still blooming just before we left for our holiday.

Not long after I took these photos, the gardeners did an autumn trim on all the other flowers and then followed up with the roses.

It’s lovely to have such gorgeous flowers blooming so late in the season, but they eventually had to be bedded down for their winter rest.

They will soon be back.
Happy Saturday.
A water garden …

… is lovely to behold during the day …

… but a few lights make an exotic and dramatic difference at night.
Happy Friday.
The sky here in the Caribbean is bright blue and contrasts intensely with the lush green of the trees.

Night descends quickly and firmly; twilight doesn’t last long.

Sometimes it catches a fritillary butterfly unawares, seized in the efficient arrival of a confusing artificial light.

I carefully moved this sleepy little one to a nearby tree that was in the shadows.
Happy Wednesday.

Abends stehen wir oben auf der Terrasse der Hochwaldbaude, verkürzen die Zeit bis zum Essen mit dem Genießen des aufreißenden Nebels, wir sind nun …
Abend auf dem Hochwald
This is a beautiful set of photos from Radelnder uHu taken in the border area of Germany and Czech Republic. Lutz has many dramatic landscape photos on his blog.

A beautiful autumn path in Stuart’s Forest of Dean.

I love how these gulls are all aligned and spaced at the water’s edge. Are they conscious of each other’s need for elbow room (wing room?) and privacy?
I don’t think so. Whatever it was that caused them to spread out like this, it was definitely pragmatic.
Happy Saturday.

I love this monochromatic forest photo from Achim Bornemann. If you click on the link you will see more of his photography.
Today, a couple of relaxing autumn scenes.

After a lovely slow rain shower, it was wonderful to see puddles here and there. Following this year’s drought, they are a welcome sight.

A calm, windless Okanagan Lake – it’s always a treat to just sit and enjoy the view for a bit.
Happy Thursday.
