Beauty is Just Around the Corner

Today, I wanted to treat you to some pictures I've taken in the last several days in upstate New York.

Beauty is just around the corner.  All you need to do is look.  And, mid October treats us, not only to fall color, but to special sun angles that just seem to make everything glow.

Maybe it's just a tree in my neighborhood - but peek a boo, do you see the window?  (Hint, the lower right of the photo).

A sunrise near an abandoned factory building in the Westover neighborhood near Johnson City, New York. We have had some amazing sunrises in the past few days.

Outside the Ithaca, New York farmers market, as a tour boat leaves the dock on its way to a cruise around Cayuga Lake, one of the Finger Lakes.

And finally, roses still in bloom yesterday.  Many places have had their first frost, but many areas around Ithaca, thanks to Cayuga Lake, have been spared. 

Soon enough, though, the remainder of the green trees will start to turn color. And, before month's end, the last of the leaves will be falling.

The chill is already in the air.

Enjoy the beauty just around the corner.
