‘End of season’ pretty much sums it up. Nearly monotone, it is a nice shot.

Thank you. 🙂 Yes, it sure does, Eliza. The zinnias were still blooming when I left for Ohio on the 14th. We must have had quite a freeze here while I was away. It feels more like November now.

Thank you, Kim. 🙂 It’s nice to be thought of. I took an unintended break from blogging and I’m easing back in although I think I won’t get back to any regular posting until somewhere near the winter solstice.
So true about the seasons. The wheel of the year keeps on turning, whether we’re ready for it or not.

I love the feeling in dying/dried/wintering plants. The energy of going into that dark cocoon and swaddling for the weight of a season. Lovely, Robin.

Thank you, Kathy. I love that feeling, too. I think it’s one of the things I love about winter. It’s as if we give ourselves permission to hibernate. 🙂
