A Mysterious and Muted Morning

I awoke very early one morning last week and saw this out my window.

I thought, hmmm, maybe there are some really neat photo opportunities, so outside I went in search of wonderment. I hadn't seen the house and farm in this lighting before. It was very interesting. In July the farm is bathed with so much summer color, but this morning, it was basically black, white, greys, etc. Everything was muted and mysterious.
It was very quiet. Since the day was a special one for me anyways, I was given a unique gift!
Brownie and Cocoa! They wondered why I was up so early and took advantage of the opportunity to get some corn! Brownie, where are your babies? She only showed them to me once, when I got back from vacation.

I guess sometimes the early bird does get the worm!

Looks like a Fall photo ... to me ... like all of them.

We spent the weekend at our beach house ... and the young Mom and her two babies ... came to eat my front yard. I always worry for them cause the cars go bay way too fast.

Stunning, beautiful pictures Kritter Keeper. I love photos of the country with a heavy fog. The shot with the spider web in the pines is very cool. Brownie and Cocoa look like darling little aliens in the fog shot staring at you!

I love the fog. I wish every day was foggy until 12 and then we could have a few hours of sun and then night again. Did I say I love fog? Seriously I do. The cool misty air just makes me happy and I feel like I can really breath. :)
