And finally, another for our dog peeps. That heeler girl that someone shot in the head? She's out of surgery and at the rescue. They raised most of it, but Emi had to cover the last ~$200. You can help with that here: pawstothewall.org#donate.

Second, our local group's wishlist. This week, it's for a family with a new baby who can only eat one [very expensive] kind of formula and goes through 3 containers a week. 7 more cases should get Little Man to year's end: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/....

The post explains why, in that particular year, this herald of winter would have seemed such a gift. It did not, in fact, bring us much in the way of snow; there had already been too much damage for that. But it did bring us beauty.

Beneath at all, just falling behind the roof of the chicken coop, the sun appears positively silver. In October, the sunlight is more gold, but as winter approaches, that shifts, too, and the late-day sky becomes a dance of pearls and molten silver, of the clouds and the light.

And that mix is what shows here, an ethereal mass that seems almost to breathe, slowly moving to limn itself with the light.

To quote the post itself, "[the cold changes] cirrus bands to cirrostratus, cirrocumulus, and cumulostratus, compressing the lines and bands into iridescent masses of white that seem to float and drift and slowly dance above the silver of the setting sun."

But it's what adorns that sky that makes the collective image so otherworldly. And that's due both to the clouds and to the light.

The fenceposts and bare-limbed trees are also very nearly perfect silhouettes, only the faintest hints of color still visible. The sky is that deep dark blue of a cold clear afternoon, almost as bright as a cornflower's petals.

The small stall, chicken coop, and hay barn all appear here in perfect silhouette, solid black and flattened into two dimensions against the hard bright blue of the November sky.
