More Late Afternoon Autumn Light

[lavendertook]

I have so many comments to answer and posts to catch up on, but I'm trying to post an autumn pic each day for a while first. So here's today's:


Late afternoon golds with a splash of orange on the east end of the lake. I love that carved out old tree bole on the trunk to the left. You've seen pics of it before, and you'll see plenty more.

My apartment building is just surrounded by a riot of colors--the leaves seem to be peaking now. We've had a fair amount of brownout, but I think this is being the prettiest autumn we've had in this area for a few years. Just north and west of us seems to be a lot more brownout, as I observed on my drive to Westminster, but down here near the DC swamp lands in the Chesapeake, Potomac, and Anacostia basin, we're getting good fall colors. My commute along the eastern part of the Beltway has been gorgeous this week as well. Being out in this magnificence is the only thing that keeps the election panic at bay--cats and reading help as well--so I'm getting what walks I can between work and med appointments. I hope you're all hanging int here. *hugs you all*

I've been in an unexpectedly wonderful state of denial about the election.

*hugs you so much*

Thank you for the autumn pic! It is relaxing to look at! :)

Oh, election panic - will it help you knowing that even people on other continents feel your election panic???? After that disastrous Brexit vote I have lost all faith in human's ability to properly democracy... :S

The colours look gorgeous. I'm glad they're putting a good display around you and the lovely lakeside. Thinking good thoughts for outcomes all over. *hugs*

How pretty! The colors aren't as pretty around here this year, but I had to take my in-laws to a funeral about 200 miles from here earlier this week and there were a lot of pockets of breathtaking color.

Yeah, you've got to do what you can to try to keep down the election panic. Fortunately it will be over soon. *hugs*

it reminds me of the forever-autumn of Rivendell. It just catches at your heart. Thank you for posting these.
