Last Bit of Sunlight


This is the sun slipping behind the cloud bank of the approaching nor'easter. The storm, which the weather service has named (!), is supposed to create all kinds of holiday travel drama. I am thankful that I do not have to go very far to celebrate Thanksgiving this year.

Yellow and Green


I have been noticing a lot of green and gold this fall.


It looked good on the garden weeds.


This was one of those afternoons when the sun bounces off dark clouds and the colors are really rich and saturated.


While we were electing our communist mayor last week, the young son was home from school. So I took him up to Central Park to climb on the rocks.


The elm trees, something of an obsession of mine, were at their autumn peak.


I tried to photograph the young son leaping around, but it came out as a blur with no child visible.


We wandered around the ramble, and for a moment he felt a little lost.
