More This and That from the Woods!

More scenic woods autumn beauty
for you today!




I asked my husband to climb out onto the falls
and remove that log,
but he said no, it was nature's artwork.
Dang.
But, I had to agree with him.
Besides, I love him and didn't want to endanger his well-being.
But I kinda like the falls better with out it....









This was a tiny river flowing below a roadway that we accidently saw
while riding a wood's road:








There is just something peaceful
about a babbling brook
over river rocks:









Boulders along the bright orange riverbanks:








We talked about the glaciers
that formed these rivers
so many many years ago:






Nature really does have a GRAND plan,
doesn't it??:






We loved this huge tree root on the far side of this colorful pond:











BE
the
STREAM:


Let Nature
Wow you today!

  4. Years ago, I would have agreed to take down the log. But today, imperfection is something that I know know makes pictures and peoples special. I love the shots. Great job as usual

  5. Great photos! We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful area. I love waterfalls and we are blessed with so many here in the U.P.

  6. All of these photos are so nice. I bet that would have made a great action shot having your husband being tossed into the water from the fast current of water. I think a large rainfall might just remove it. Take care.

  18. All your shots from the woods series are amazing! Do you often have such great weather to head out and ramble through the golden fall canopies? I'm in Belgium right now, enjoying the changing season (I usually live in southern Spain, Fall is when we pull out a sweater and the humidity drops a bit. No colours), but it's so rainy I can't really get any of the colours just right in most of my pictures! Sunday will probably be my last Fall hike thanks to wind and rain knocking leaves off trees left and right, and I hope it will be a nice day! The next hike will probably be through naked trees... :s

    Anyhow, gorgeous shots! Whereabouts are these woods?
