Embracing Autumn

I'm doing my morning drive, in my semi-conscious state of just after sunrise, when I look over and see this.  Immediately I thought, I need to drive back this way at lunch and catch that scene.  Then remembering other perfect moments I've missed using that approach, I made a U-turn in the middle of rush hour (shhhh, don't tell!) and went back to snap a few photos.

Yep, in my black heels and dress pants I walked through the dewy grass and up to the fence line to catch the fields and farm.  I couldn't reach all the way down to the baby cows in the field.  After all, I was already pushing the flexibility of getting to my office on time!

I think this one is my favorite.  The hay rolls, the changing colors of the trees in the background, and the early morning sun.  There were really long shadows along the field made from the angle of the sun on the rolls.

Getting these shots first thing absolutely put me in a positive mindset for the rest of the day.  What a great way to start out.

These tree photos are in the later day sun.  Just as beautiful in their own way.
