Everybody remember the apple pictures from last week? Well… my father decided that what was needed in my life was more apples, so now there is another huge bag of apples in my kitchen and I haven’t finished with the first batch yet.

Such a gloomy day out, even the fall foliage failed to have its usual intensity. The gray sky darkens the entire image.

I went to the Schiele Museum’s “Scottish Heritage Day” today which featured Scottish and Irish dancing, a bag pipe band (Loch Norman Pipe Band) and a Border Collie sheep dog (which herded ducks).

A simple fall landscape. Cropped to emphasize the movement in the sky and the color of the autumn foliage. This image was composed of 3 separate images in an image fusing technique to use the best possible color and exposure from each.

I’m preparing to polish my boots using a technique recommended to me by a friend. Thanks for the tips David, maybe tomorrow’s photo will be a pair of glossy shined Danner Ft. Lewis.

Flower shot through the railing of the deck, the way they are seen through the living room window.

Lately I have been doing a lot of astrophotography, but I don’t often get great color like this. I suspect it is because I went out earlier in the evening this time (about 7:30pm) to get this shot. As one of the comments states, the foreground is blurry, so the stars are in focus. I don’t know why I do that at wide field, I suppose just for technical correctness (since after all, I am attempting to please the astrometry.net blind solver).

It might be close with the muscadines this year. They may finish before their cold hardiness is put to the test.

I hate that lately I have been awake mostly at night. I feel so strange when I realize that daylight is gone. This is one of the lamps that illuminates my night and makes things seem a little more bright.
