The assignment this week was to select a theme, e.g. serenity, peace, quietude, and then take a walk and use nature as your palette to express that theme.
I had a bunch of words in mind...but 'transitions' seemed to inspire me.
The rich transition of color as the sun is just thinking about rising.
The change in light within just a few minutes from the rich indigo and orange to a frosty light.
We're at that exhilarating window of time between autumn and winter. The evenings are still rich in color bathed in warm light at sunset...
but the mornings are frigid and the leaves starched with the first frost.
From moonrise to moonset, there are so many transitions of light, color, and vitality, these are but a few.
Nothing is secure but life, transition, the energizing spirit.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

The frost covered buds are just beautiful! I really enjoyed your theme and photos!
My goodness you live in a gorgeous place.
You have captured some incredible images. Transition seems to on our minds these days... I see so much in your gorgeous images,simplicity, peace,yet rich in detail. I really appreciate the siloutte with the multitude of colors in the sky...and yes,the horse grazing peeking over the hill.
Just stunning.
These photographs are stunningly beautiful! Each and every one of them! The light, the colors, the frost......etc! So funny that we chose the same theme! I can't tell you how long it took me to think of that word!
I hope you have a nice weekend!

So beautiful...the ice on the roses is stunning. And the horses? Amazing...

I love the way you captured transition. Your photos are warm and soft to icy and cold. Wonderful pictures!

Wow! These pictures make me a bit envious that I wasn't on that walk with you! Love them all, but the horse ones....priceless!
Beautiful shots. Your work is so inspiring. Just need to get off my bum and start shooting again.
transitions seem to be circling a lot of us. i have too many words for these photos. the horse, by far takes the cake though.
gorgeous!
