A hint of Winter
November 1, 2010
It was around 5.30pm and I was driving to town. The sun was highlighting the pasture and the cows, the last rays of a beautiful but chilly autumnal day. I just had to stop and take a picture of two Seasons that were overlapping. Snow had fallen on the Prealpes mountains and the sight was enchanting. Could it be that Winter is at the door ? A bit too soon for me…

Beautiful!
Merci Cindy.
It is a beautiful view.
…Winter? No, no, not yet!
Thank you Carsten. You are right, Fall was in full bloom today, a most perfect day
It looks like it was a beautiful day. I love the snowy mountains in the distance.
The quote is beautiful, too!
(Your post title is VERY similar to what I have scheduled for tomorrow
)
It was the end of a beautiful day, a wonderful light and a striking contrast with the snow topped mountains at the back. Just had to take a picture. Your Fall is lovely too !
A beautiful view over this landscape with fine contrasts between the warm colored field, cows and trees – and the cold mountains and sky.
Thanks for your warm comments, truels
I know, me too! Seems that Fall was very short this year.
Yes, it seems so, let´s try to enjoy day fully! Thanks for the visit.
I think the cows have the right idea. Graze in the sunlight now. Soon enough it will be time to huddle together, tails to the wind, and dream winter dreams.
You are right, Gerry, it will not be long before those cows will leave the pastures to go back to the barn and dream of fresh grass
J’aime les vaches. Je n’aime pas la neige mais j’aime votre photo!
Merci Karma, je ne suis pas pressée de voir la neige… chaque jour d´automne est un cadeau avant le grand froid, brrrrr !
Comment paisible paysage! La photo fait l’éloge de la beauté de la Suisse.
Belle journèe.
Merci Sartenada, la Finlande est très belle aussi. Bon dimanche
Winter doesn’t hint around upstate NY. It just shows up.
This is a lovely view and thanks for sharing.
Thank you Scott, Winter might just show up in this coming week, much cooler today and snow forecast at 800m.
love your blog. this is a stunning photo
Thanks Serena, I enjoyed visiting your blog too. Lovely pics and quilting. Look forward to seeing more
Isa, just a note to let you know I have posted a new assignment I think you (and maybe some of your readers) would be interested in.
Thanks Scott, I have just read the assignement on your blog, it sounds great and I will post a note about it
