Browns, greens and off-whites
Here in Ontario, our plants don't have much colour now. But wait! Brown is a colour too! And mosses and some ferns are green.
The good news is our skies have been more cheerful than usual - more blue skies than I remember in past Novembers, which are often grey and dreary. No wonder some Ontario homeowners put up Christmas decorations so early. Their holiday lights will glow every evening from now through January when our nights seem so long.
For me, the best seasonal lights are the beautiful sunsets and sunrises we often enjoy in late fall and winter. My fingers are crossed that there will be plenty of these!

You made brown beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWonderful expressions of November. Ferns just make me happy for some reason. Maybe because they are so delicate looking but so hardy.

ReplyDeleteEarth tones! I wish I was back in Michigan. The mild weather must be such a treat.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful "walk through the woods" collage!
ReplyDeleteI see plently of colors in those. . . How did you get the writing sideways? rotate photo in a program? I look forward to the beautiful sunsets you snap photos of in the near future.

ReplyDeleteI agree that sunrises and sunsets are the best seasonal lights, but each of these pictures is beautiful in its own right.
ReplyDeleteI love all the seasons and the variations of brown are very beautiful too me. I enjoyed your nature collage as always and the icicles are fantastic in the next post.
ReplyDeleteSuper photos, you've capture some beautiful 'browns'.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful collage! The browns and greens complementing each other as do the textures of the seed heads. Love the softness of the goldenrod and the delightful nest of acorns next to the vibrant green of the fern.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful post.
Brown is beautiful too, you presented them well. :)
