Okay, I admit the Summer does seem to be over. . .
For me here in San Diego the light shifts well before it starts to get darker earlier. I notice my shadow and the way that the sunlight brushes the other side of familiar tree trunks. Birds seem more noticeable. Taking a deep breath as though I might have to spend my winter in a musty cave somewhere, and still love it! Fall colors, barren trees, the smell of pine sap and the soft nap of the pine needles - great sensation.
I caught my cat Midnight, rolling in the dirt on one of the last warm evenings, as the light played around him. Enjoy that buddy, soon it will be dark at 4:30! He doesn't really care about that!
Fall also brings a shift in the projects that I work on - aside from the sweet and sinister swap that I am loving, I have been pulling out a few of my extra shadow boxes and updating. The inspiration in blogland is awesome, have fun creating! Thanks to everyone for sharing their process.
Lovely - Autumn isn't really upon us here yet, but the olives are slowly turning in our garden as are the pomegranates.
ReplyDeleteAnother hidden talent - those shadow boxes look interesting!
PS I'll let you know when my pressie arrives - we've had postal strikes here
Just to say my pressie arrived today. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! It's my turn to look for something for you now...
ReplyDeleteI love the shadow boxes! I've always wanted to do something like that but never knew where to start.
ReplyDeleteI'm a little blue about the changing seasons. BTW my husband was in your neck of the woods a couple weeks ago for work. He says it's beautiful!
