Frost October 27

I wasn't as prepared as I could have been to catch a photo of unexpected frost this morning. A little out of focus but yes, that is frost to the left.

Sunrise October 27

Clouds over the Cascades muted the sunrise this morning but it was still a welcome sight in Oak Harbor after days of clouds.

Dawn October 27

It is good to see clear skies again after a few days of clouds. From my neighbor's deck in Oak Harbor.

Beauty and Work of Autumn

Raking the leaves from the neighbor's overhanging maple tree.

When did that tree get so big and have so many leaves?

Hanging by a Thread

An industrious spider (upper left) and a leaf gently swinging in the breeze, caught on a strand of filament. I think I'll leave it and see how long it remains.
