Yesterday was Thanksgiving Day in Canada. So if you are in Canada, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
My the
seasons have moved fast this year. So fast that I feel like I'm in a time
slip. Spring, although late, (it always seems late ;) and summer...so
lovely. And now slipping through the cracks: autumn: a blast of
gorgeousness and refined beauty. What luck, this year, to have such wonderful
seasons.
Clearly, I haven't mention winter. It, of course, it's not without beauty, but since I lived in the Arctic for many years, with winter arriving in October and leaving the end of June, or later, I do so appreciate spring, summer, and fall. And I wish, each year, that they could linger just a little longer.

White Water Lily |
If I could capture the reflected light,
I'd love to paint these lilies. Oil paints would work, but
I don't own any oils, nor do I know much about them. ( Monet comes to mind. He could make a painting sing.)

Yellow pond lilies.
What a wonderful pattern on the water and O that reflected light. |
Going to seed in a beautiful way...

It's always a treat to see something you haven't seen before. What an unusual colour. |

Would a smaller pumpkin work? Perhaps I just need a larger doily. |
