One morning
The photographs in this post were all taken in one morning. I went out early, hoping for late season butterflies in a big field near the Sudbury River. It was cold, and there was a frost down low at ankle height and dew at knee height.

Dew on a foxtail
I worked from low to high, from frost to dew, finishing with the dew closeup. I wish now I’d remembered to bring a wide angle lens to capture the fall scene and the mist rising from the field. Thanks to all my readers for their comments and support – this is my 300th post. So many!
Nature Diary

Thanks – it’s rare for me to find many beautiful subjects at once. And it was my birthday – as if nature was giving me a (big!) present…
I love those kinds of days!! Until the battery expires in both cameras!! lol
OH NO
Hope that’s not your reaction to the photographs!
🙂 I hate the COLD 🙂
I’ve learned to love the cold (perverse, I know) – and it’s coming!
🙂 I love looking at it just not removing it from the roof and driveway anymore 🙂
Great photos. I’ve not see been in a winter like this. Very cold, lovely shots.
Thanks, though it’s not winter yet – just a bit of frost on a fall morning.

Congratulations on the milestone, Tom. That’s a lot of quality shared. This was a very productive day. Too bad…no frosted frits.
