Pink fall flowers

#fall
Close up of pink flowers from late last week. We’ve already had multiple frosts, so these must be pretty hardy. Photo identification suggests they are a type of carnation.

Sunset on beach off Lake Michigan in Door County, Wisconsin
#calm #nature #beach
The sunset has almost reached the horizon and glows a brilliant orange and reflects softly onto Lake Michigan. The sky above the sun is as golden as the sun itself. There are some dark clouds to the south. The underbellies of some clouds reflect the sun’s orange rays. The lake is calm with a few soft waves gently lapping the shore.
