First Frost

First Frost, Silverton, Oregon–12.2.09

Hard to believe it's been about two months since I last posted any photographs. It makes me think of that often quoted line from John Ono Lennon, "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." Maybe it's the global warming, or maybe it's just Oregon. Two years ago, the first frost arrived on Halloween morning. This year it came two days ago, on December 2. The photograph is a pile of leaves on one of our front stairs that I really should have swept away before this. By the way, there was no Photoshop work done on this image. The muted tones are exactly what the camera caught.
