Feet tramping all day
through crunchy leaves
swamp & Tupelo trees
and now it’s dark @5:30
cozy lights coziness
candles glowing

Earth-shattering
just playing in woods
relaxing after in a nest
Reflecting trees are rotated to appear right side up, but with some surreal touches

Gratacels naturals. Torres de fusta escapant de la boira.

Fotografia presa de baix cap a dalt d'arbres altissims completament despullats de fulles. Al sotabosc, restes de boira degut a la humitat.

Along the shore of Lake Kawaguchi, #Japan, in the resort area below Mt. Fuji. A nice path traverses much of this shoreline, with views changing perspectives and highlighted by Fall colors.
