Early November Foliage and Shadows #ShadowshotSunday

Two fall foliage shadows for your consideration, as I join up today with Lisa at Lisa's Garden Adventures for her #ShadowshotSunday.

November 3, some of the last of the fall color.

November 5.

The leaves keep falling and we keep raking.

Speaking of shadows, history also has shadows. This is the anniversary of Kristallnact, the Night of Broken Glass, that took place November 9-10, 1938 in Germany.  Here is a description of that event, one that echoes into the present as we face increasing hate in our world.

Let us insure that this history and other histories of hate (so many of them) never recede into the shadows of our memories, to be ignored, denied, or forgotten.

  2. Kristallnach, the beginning of a very dark time.

  3. Hear hear! Atrocities should never be forgotten or excused.

  4. Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it and I fear that we have forgotten much that should be remembered.

  6. The shadows in the second photo look like it would be cold there. Very dark.
