‘Autumn Morning’

Image and text by Brian DeWolf, Photographer, www.BrianDeWolf.com

At the risk of reminding readers of our waning days of summer, especially after enduring last winter’s siege, this is a tranquil autumn scene. This image was a film capture in Wheeler Park during October.

As is probably apparent, this was one of those mornings the moon was “coming home” late. Dawn was breaking in the east as a full moon was about to set in the west. The temperature was only a bit cool, just cool enough to bring on a low ground mist. There was not a hint of wind stirring. A man was walking the path drinking his morning coffee and we both acknowledged the beginning of a great day.

It’s too soon to worry about the coming winter; there are still a lot of good days left in this solstice.
