Lovely photos. I really like the cornfield with the misty background.
I can already see slight changes here. It is still very warm and it would KILL me if we got down to zero ever! ha ha, but still, autumn is certainly starting to sneak in.
Fall has nearly always been my favorite season with it's pumpkins and colorful leaves everywhere and the first hint of coolness in the air, but then winter is my LEAST favorite season, so I think melancholy seems the perfect word to describe it as the first hints of fall show up and like you said, the daylight begins to shorten..... and yet, it happens every year no matter what.
It's hard to just live in the NOW sometimes... .right? Projecting ahead to things that aren't quite here yet and letting it affect today. Doesn't sound quite right, does it? .... and yet, there it is.
Oh I can understand this so well. Yes ... every year, again and again I try to just live in the NOW, and not think about what will be. But every year again, I can't help but feeling this bit of melancholy about the changing seasons, and especially when fall slowly enters my little corner of the world.
When spring arrives it has the same obviously showing changes, but those changes are positive. The green is starting to pop up after the bear and cold winter. The flowers are popping up and the colors in nature revive.
When autumn sets in, it's first a beautiful explosion of colors and then everything disappears and it's bear, cold, and dead ...
Nothing we can do about that, just try to stay warm and survive. But with the love of my 3 doggies I am able to do just that. Stay active, warm and survive this period and finally spring will arrive again ... and life will come back in nature and in our hearts.
Yes it will ! 🙂
