Standard Time sadness.
Nature is (in a way) closing up for the winter. So are most of our farm markets.
Today, sunset will be at 4:53 pm.
Last week, thinking we would have our first frost on Halloween, I went out and took some pictures of my last flowers. Now, they are gone.
Enjoy their beauty.
Zinnia in shadow.
Last cosmos.
Last lantana.
Last marigold.
I will miss them.
Tomorrow, join me and other music bloggers for #MusicMovesMe.
...we have come to the end of the line.
ReplyDeleteLovely. I didn't plant any annuals this year, so I really have nothing that the frost can take from me, but I regret all those blooms that I could have enjoyed. I do love zinnias and marigolds.
ReplyDeleteIt really is fall
ReplyDeleteMarigold colour stripe looks great
ReplyDeleteYes, the clocks have turned back and one can feel winter coming. I love your last looks of the pretty flowers. The marigolds are dramatic!
ReplyDeleteIt's sad, but there's the promise that winter will end and spring will return. We can enjoy the rest we get while things cool down and it gets darker earlier. This too shall pass.
ReplyDeleteWe had a killing frost last week. Today we are running our air conditioner. My wife took advantage of the cold weather to clear out all the dead plants.
ReplyDeleteI just wish the clocks would stay the same.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on.
It's hard to see the last blooming plants to go for the season. Oh well, it will make spring worth the wait and give us something to look forward to. :)
