Fishink’s Frost and Fire November images
The last week has been glorious in terms of it’s colour and contrasts. I was lucky to catch some of the late autumnal sunshine in a local park, when I also had my camera to hand and managed to take in some of the amazing colour around me. The canopies just ‘sang’ about yellows and oranges.
Even the dead fallen leaves were interesting in their windswept piles or time frozen leaf dances.
Then on saturday, the frost had been overnight, and I literally ran from my bed, out into the local fields (yes readers, that’s before breakfast), to capture some of the early light and freezing start to this beautiful day.
I love the way the white frosted edges to these oak leaves, sparkle in the sun. Natures leafy diamonds for certain.
There’s still plenty of colour in the fields and woodland too.
Of course, even a little sun, makes everything light up and switch on.
The frosted fields and grasses looked amazing. Such detail.
Classic cow-parsley with their icy heads raised to the contrail heavy, criss-cross skies.
Crispy grass scrunched beneath our feet. I love the way the frost added definition to the landscapes’ lines and furrows.
A beautiful day, so glad I managed to see this. Keep warm everyone.
It has been a wonderful slow Autumn this year, gorgeous leaves. Been working on some seasonal paintings and found the perfect leaves for the Autumn section. Had to hurry though before they all got blown off!
Tis true, they’re falling fast now that Jack Frost is about. When I did the walk on saturday, there was the sound of cascading leaves falling through all the trees as I walked past. At first I thought the squirrels were causing it, but then realised it was the frost and then the leaves causing a domino effect throughout the tree. Kinda spooky lol
On frosty calm mornings the leaves drop slowly straight down when the sun hits them and it is surprising how noisy they are, this year we have had some cheeky, swirly, windy days when the air has been full of tumbling gold- the sort of Autumn days you see in films, but rarely happen, walking through little whirlpools of leaves.
Thanks for the beautiful morning poetry : ) Tumbling gold is a perfect picture just now
Thank you for lovely autumn images!
My pleasure
