Back home, I was racing up and down the stairs trying to photograph the morning sun as it struck the burnt orange leaves of the oak tree. As I turned around to walk back down the stairs, I noticed the silhouette on the wall. For a while, I photographed those shadows, the subtle shift of the shapes as the wind stirred the branches outside, and inside, how my motion stirred the butterflies on the mobile hanging from the ceiling.
As for the orange leaves that first drew my attention … to my eyes, they are like stained glass.
Words + Images 
Let it always be stunning. The forever moments that somehow elude us yet choose blissful moments to embrace us.
Love the light in these leaf photos. Looking at them feels like an antidote to everything.
All so beautiful. Lit from within too.
Beautiful color!!!
I hate the cold but I love the light at this time of year. 😉

The richness of the color is wonderful. Looking at art really excites me these days, and you keep feeding me! Can’t wait to explore the book this weekend.
