Dean, those photos are beautiful. There's nothing quite like the seasons changing -- especially when the next one reveals itself through subtle hints.
This morning we went to the farm to finish up some work. The day was cool and damp, and the sky filled with low clouds. Days like this concentrate color, and I had to stop (in the road!) to take this photo of wild sunflowers. The photo does not do this field justice. It is about 20-30 acres of vivid yellow, made more intense by the low clouds.
I've been seeing lots of dove. Still deciding which gun to use for the opener next Sunday.
