Golden grasses still hold memories of summer sun. #nature #photography #optoutside #autumn
Tall, golden grass next to a green lawn that leads to a lake with hills in the distance. Blue sky with wispy clouds above.

I’m up, tea is made, and I’m sneaking around the house like a thief in the wee hours, trying to keep the family asleep. Ready for this clash of titans! #askwxm #WxmAFC

Very likely the last blossoms for this season, early October #bloomscrolling
Two roses blossoms with salmon-colored petals that fade to yellow near the center.
