I took an exhilarating walk this morning in a different spot. It was another beautiful foggy morning, with some sprinkling as the morning went on. The temperature was chilly but not cold. You know, gloves, but no long johns. I took my walk in a Metro Park close to my house, Highbanks. I usually drive by it on my way to Alum Creek, but I am going to have to go here more often. It is a beautiful woodsy park with a lot of trails and hills with streams and so much beauty. All of the photos (except the last, obviously) are from Highbanks. The last one is of my new friend, who sits atop our Christmas tree. He is a real beauty!!!!!! (No animals were harmed in the making of the owl). I came home today and looked to see what the Weekly Challenge was. How cool that my morning walk was a perfect example of the changing seasons to me!
PS. As I look my photos, the first photo reminds me of the Pink Floyd Album cover “Meddle”, one of my all-time favorite albums! Ahhhh…..

Aahh, the beauty speaks for itself. Thank you for enticing me to seek you out.
Thank you! Mr. Seeker 😉
All of these photos are incredible! As someone who really admires photography, these are clearly the photos from someone who has major talent. The first one is my favorite. I love how you can see the rings from the droplets.
