The party’s ending…

First real frost overnight last night. Clare spent much of the afternoon pulling out annuals and cutting back perennials. :-(

This is beautiful Thom! I love the focus and the simplicity of the red and green color.

Puts on a nice cover of texture. Nice shot, and I dread the thought of what lies ahead.

[Joyce Wells]

Beautiful shot - love the color - a fav for me, Thom

[Lori Rompolski]

Winter is arriving.... Gorgeous shot

[Tari]

beautiful shot ~ focus and lighting are top notch =) that frost looks so interesting - like it's magnetized almost . . .

[Thom Mitchell]

Okay, so I'm this far behind (and more).

@cohare Belated thank you, Christine. Unless colors knock me over, I think I tend to see textures and patterns before colors. Here it's what Tari @sitiodown calls "magnetized"; I like that, Tari! Thanks!

@sparkleplenty1 Thank you for the fav, Joyce! I really liked this shot so I appreciate the affirmation of a fav!
