It is still very much summer but the landscape is slowly showing signs of fall. There’s a bit more yellow in the fields and milkweed pods are opening to release their seeds. I like photographing these changes.
Yes, I’m seeing small changes too. Bean crops that are finished, squash leaves getting yellow on the edges, lettuce bolting, a hint of morning dew on the deck, poppies going to seed.
It is interesting to record these subtle changes. As we are nudged towards spring, I see leaf buds, courting birds and even a Hadeda Ibis on its nest in our garden.

It seems we wait half the year for summer to arrive. Late summer can be pretty nice too!
