Your photography touches me, Whitney. I really love the way you you show the rich, yet subtle palette of the forest right now. Have you heard of the ancient Japanese concept of 72 seasons? These micro-seasons are each last for just 5 days. They're named according to small changes happening in the natural world.🌿

Hi Ann, thank you so much. I have never heard of that concept, that sounds so interesting though! I'm glad you shared that with me. 🤍

"The seasons are fascinating to watch; not only the obvious changes from summer to autumn to winter, but the subtle shifts within a season such as early autumn to late." Beautiful collection of images with a muted, moody color palette. It's hard to choose a favorite, but I do really like the dramatically deep-green ferns. Thanks for sharing your walk with us!

Beautiful as always. Here we are still very much in the colourful golds and reds part of autumn, which is lovely, but I also really like the more muted 'resting' tones of deeper winter when they arrive.
