Back out in the autumn woods today....
some photos taken before we got our dusting of snow!
Although the lighting was bad
and made the pond shimmer,
I still wanted to capture
these ducks playing in the sun:
We took a ride to a place we haven't been in a long while...
Sturgeon River Gorge.
It is a gorge over looking a long, winding rive
and for our part of the country, it is a pretty deep gorge.
Of course, the minute I got there, I wished we had gotten the photos when the leaves
were in full color.
So, I put a mental note to remember to do it NEXT year.
But it was still remarkably pretty.
I loved how the trees looked like little dustmops over the now golden forest floor:
See the river, far below?:
Looking through the trees at the hills and wilderness beyond:
Love, love, LOVE this spot!:
No civilization for miles and miles!:
We will definitely return here for some spring and fall photos...
maybe we will see some eagles soaring....
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!!

love that view through the trees and i can see why they call it a gorge. and for me the no civiliazation for miles and miles is wonderful. the ducks look so happy in the diamond glitter water.
