Early October walk

[neverspent]

The weather has been lovely lately: some rain, some sun, no blazing heat and if it gets a bit warm during the day, it still cools off at night. Last Saturday I went for a walk through the woods at the farm. The leaves weren't changing much yet, just the tips of some of the sweet gum leaves, but there are golden flowers, beautiful brown tall grasses, and the quality of light is just... October.


Clockwise from top: asters, goldenrod, tickseed and pinkweed, seedbox pods, bracket fungus

All these photos are amazing, but that bracket fungus in particular is just beautiful. The colour gradations are great.

Thank you! Bracket fungi have always fascinated me. They're everywhere in the woods, and there's no reason I know of for them to be so beautiful, but they are. :)
