A SUNDAY AFTERNOON WALK

This was an idyllic day for a leisurely stroll.
A perfect Indian Summer day, alive with color and sunshine.
The temperature was 61F with no winds or breezes.
This weather won't last long,
It's been pretty cold recently.
And I was so happy to enjoy the outdoors for hours.
The ground is covered in leaves of yellow, reds and golds.
This labradoodle (part poodle,part lab)devotedly awaits her master, a shop owner.
Autumn is my favorite season.I stayed out till sunset, which is just a little past 5 pm.

The autumn and these beautiful places, Brad, made you a poet! Your post is a real text-poem!
Friend, the label "Um pouco de mim em 5 revelações" awaits you on Valves.

I was wondering: review copies - are you reading them in order to write a review or does this mean something else???

Just got back from Hamburg and we're now preparing for Christmas...

Jul e Mo said...

Really quiet and beautiful day! I love autumn too (those awesome colors, the weather... it all seems to contribute to quietness, love and relax), but I prefer winter ^^ after all, Moreno and I were born in January!
A hug

Brad your pictures are glorious. I love the dining el fresco, the beautiful silver linings of Christmas in the kyak window, the boats & sails... gosh it beautiful.

Did you get a new camera and if so, what kind? I'll be seeking a new one and want to start getting some feedback.

May the blessings of the season be upon you and your family & friends. Happy Holidays my friend from our home to yours.
Tammy
