These looked like two little skirts! Last of the salvia greggii 'Hot Lips' before I give it a hard cut for winter.

Hi hi, everyfur, Conductor Shadow here! We've got the passenger carriages all decorated and ready to go for tomorrow's #AnipalHB train excursion! We'll start boarding at 11am and 2pm, with the train departing about 15 minutes later, once all who want to ride are onboard. Hope to see you there!

November's theme: Stolen Art
BERTHE MORISOT (1841 – 1895), “Young Woman at the Ball”, 1875. Musée Marmottan, Paris, France.
Morisot was the lone female artist who threw in her lot with the upstart French Impressionists at the beginning of their movement.
#arthistory #art #Impressionism #Morisot
Like her male counterparts, Morisot focused on painting modern life but, unlike them, she could not hang out in bars and cafés to mingle with the common folk. Being an upper class lady, however, allowed her to attend the opera and balls and so her work, which gives beautiful expression to the female experience, is filled with women attending social events and tending their children. “Young Woman at the Ball”, like most Impressionist paintings at the time, did not sell and so Morisot hung it on her dining room wall. In 1985, this painting, along with eight other Impressionist masterpieces (including five Monets), was stolen from the Musée Marmottan in Paris in a brazen daytime armed robbery. The thieves knew exactly what paintings they wanted, and they also knew that the security alarm system was only turned on at night when there were no museum visitors so the robbery took place when the museum first opened in the morning. Authorities linked the theft to organized crime in Japan. Through dogged investigation, the paintings were found in an apartment in Corsica and all were recovered in 1990. The Morisot canvas had been damaged during the theft but was able to be repaired once returned to the Musée Marmottan.

Aren’t frosted leaves beautiful? I went on a wintry walk down the bridle path this morning and photographed some of the little treasures I found gathered in the grass along the hedgerows. The sky was blue, and the birds were singing; what a glorious (but chilly) day! #nature #art
A nine-image collage of frosted autumn and winter foliage. Each square shows different leaves coated in a delicate layer of white frost, including bramble, maple, nettle, cleavers, and other wild plants. The intricate ice crystals highlight the leaf edges and textures.

Within a silent wood, as time is absorbed by the leaves of trees lying still 'neath thin blanket of snow, I close my eyes, heart open to an unconditional knowledge of what peace truly means.

#toroid Thursday? This is seriously one of the weirdest #mushrooms I've ever seen and it looks like an ouroborous caterpillar! If anyone knows the exact species, I'd love to know.

Frosty or snowy mornings transform seed heads into crisp winter sculptures. John Clare conveys that sharp countryside cold in his poem Winter: “The small wind whispers through the leafless hedge, most sharp and chill, where the light snowy flakes rest on each twig.” #WinterPoetry
Snow-covered hogweed seed heads stand against a pale winter sky. Each umbel carries rounded caps of fresh snow on fine radiating stems, creating a delicate, sculptural look. Soft blurred light in the background adds a gentle winter atmosphere.
