reframe: i took one step to the left between each of these photos to line the subject up with a different background. i like they're all autumnal, but end up with different atmospheres!

I just started grad school, and have had very limited time for photography. It's an amazing autumn here though, so I ignored my piles of assignments to go on a photo walk in the woods nearby. No regrets.

Not a Maple
Aside from maple trees don't have berries, and their leaves generally don't turn purple, and a few other obvious things that I may have overlooked, mapleleaf viburnum looks just like maple!

earth, air, fire, water: the sand beneath the water, the reflection of the sky above the water, the light of the sun, the water itself.

monarch butterflies make themselves unpalatable by eating milkweed leaves, and apparently fireflies do it by sucking on milkweed roots!

when i see a stream, i wonder: how long does it take to flow to the sea? or, like the Okavango, does it flow into the desert and vanish? (this one flows to the sea, via two ponds, two swamps, two streams, and three rivers)
