I love how this photograph so captures both the last bit of the growing season and nature’s preparation for winter.
Flowers and all their complicated, tiny parts hold a fascination for me, and add to my interest in photographing them. But there is something deep and grounding about the autumn trees and the annual dropping of their leaves, as they prepare to withstand a long winter.
Nature gives us so many lessons if we only pay attention.
Appreciate the beauty of each day, but also prepare for the coming days. I am pondering that it is often true — that less is more.
