It started at the deck, actually. The leaves are accumulating. If we leave the back door open in the evening, sometimes the wind whips them up against the screen. And sometimes they scratch across the deck, an almost crunching sound, which when combined with the creaks of a settling patio, can be disconcerting. But the leaves looked pretty harmless in the halflight. The great thing about being digital is that I can take pictures just for kicks, just to play with the angles or the content. Those pictures tickle my fancy, but there's nothing spectacular in the composition.
Onward, then. This is what I eventually found:
This is a... shrub of sorts. Dunno what it's called, but it's got pretty little pink flowers in the spring.
Most of the leaves are gone now. I'm a sucker for silhouettes and sunsets, so here ya go.
OK, so I actually took this one a few weeks ago. It was an accident, actually. The shot I was trying to capture was...
Ah, the benefits of actually using the flash on a grey, gloomy day.
And that may be all the pictures I take in a while. I appear to have murdered my camera, or at least critically injured it in a steep topple onto a hard surface (blasted concrete...). It now works about every other time I try to use it and sometimes refuses to read the memory card (problem's the camera, not the card--computer reads it just fine). Could be the impetus I need to get a better camera.
