After rain, and then a frosty snow, many plants are creating a beautiful ruin as they decompose.

These images capture the feeling of the changes and the need for winter sleep. Nicely done, Blue. 🙂

I wonder what photos of ourselves passing into the stage of needing a winter’s sleep would look like? 🙂

This is such a great series ~ kind of matches my mood. The weather is cold, and it is definitely moving on from autumn into the depths of winter. Beautiful post!

Thanks Cathy, now for the long, rather dreary Pacific northwest winter. Not so picturesque as in many places, but a challenge is always good.

Beautiful – esp love the close up of the wet, fallen leaves and the hay-like grasses (?) among the birches. Very wild.

Thanks so much! That hay-like grass makes fantastic textures, and the way it collapsed against the tree trunks was beautiful.
