When the sun is shining on autumn leaves like this, I could look up at them for hours.

October yellow
A little autumn color for a dreary weekend
It’s been pretty dark and dreary in Madison for a while now. The lack of sunshine, and the fact that I haven’t spent much time out in nature lately has a definite affect on my psyche. As a small antidote, I was looking at some early autumn pictures I took recently, when clouds weren’t dominating the sky.
The lesson that I need to get outside on a regular basis, no matter the weather, is not new. It’s funny though, how often I need to remind myself of it.

Foggy morning at Peninsula
Peninsula State Park sure looks different when the fog rolls in.
Cave Point
I’m often surprised by discovering or hearing about spots I’ve never seen, in places I regularly visit. A friend told me about Cave Point County Park in Door County (located just north of Whitefish Dunes State Park), and I made a point of checking it out when I was vacationing there last week.

Oak fractals
The structure of oak trees makes them just as beautiful bare, as they are with leaves.
O Tannenbaum
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
Wie treu sind deine Blätter.
Du grünst nicht nur, zur Sommerzeit,
Nein auch im Winter, wenn es schneit.
O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
Wie treu sind deine Blätter.
