[info]purpleglitter asked me to make one of my photographs from yesterday's set into a desktop wallpaper for her. I figured I'd go ahead and post it in case anyone else wanted it. I may go through and do the same to other photographs.

Two Trips to Mount Auburn

Date and Time  - Oct. 21st, 2007, 07:06 pm

Current Mood  - awake awake
Current Music  - budgies in conference

I've been to Mount Auburn Cemetery twice this weekend. Yesterday, I went with Ila. We walked up the winding paths and climbed to the top of the tower. The sky was overcast, which served to deepen the reds, gold and purple that extended to the horizon in one directions and to the Boston skyline in the other.

Today, Skye had her bi-weekly lupron shot. After the shot, [info]purpleglitter and I took her to Mount Auburn. This time we drove to the tower, and I walked Skye to the top. Today was sunny and bright and Skye was treated to what some have called the best view on the continent. She loved every minute of it up there. Skye in the sky.

Autumn Birds at Arlington Reservoir

My birding camera is still giving me a lot of grief. I'll get it working only to lose power again in less than a minute. I'm more and more convinced the problem is internal, and the prospects of getting it fixed anytime soon are dim. Even so, I was able to get a few shots with it at the Arlington Reservoir today.

The Washington Elm

Current Music  - Changelings - Melusine

I took these pictures of the Washington Elm in Cambridge Common last week while I was sitting under it with Jeff last week. It is the same tree which General George Washington stood under when he took command of the Continental army in 1775. That old tree has seen a lot in its time.

“Seasons are changing. I've noticed the leaves over the past couple weeks. Little bit of gold peeking out, little bit of red, you know? Little bit of purple. Fall tones starting to creep their way in. Tonight, though, the surest sign that summer is finally waning: I can see my breath!”
