Sunday Serenity: A Walk in Nature

It’s Thanksgiving weekend in these parts and my loyal collie, Reilly, and I are enjoying short walks in nature. The spectacular colour show is particularly heartwarming this year given the times in which we live.

So we lose ourselves to the wonder of it and give thanks for its beauty. After a virtual plague of caterpillars in the spring that decimated the foliage on many of the trees around here it’s reassuring to see how resilient nature is.

Humanity could learn a thing or two from that.

Happy Thanksgiving … 🍁❤️

This morning in Dufferin …

I’ve seldom witnessed such a sunrise. I was sitting in my studio, which faces east, writing a blurb when I looked out the window and saw the first shades of dawn. Beautiful, but ignored it. Too cold.

However, moments later the magic started to happen and I couldn’t ignore it any longer. I threw on my coat and boots, grabbed my mittens and spent about a half hour wandering along my regular south east viewpoint in the bitter cold capturing 271 sunrise moments. My fingers nearly froze off.

The silence was winter crisp. Not a sound except for the occasional chirping of a frigid bird.
Purely magical.

It was a stunning experience to watch this sun dog manifest.
I’ve only chosen to post four images here, but you can be assured there are more to follow.

Storm’s Edge

Storm's Edge

The western edge of a storm clashes with sunset.

More than a thing of beauty. More like light magic.
