Come September!


    Three pictures taken at sunset on September 20, 2013

With the Equinox just two days away, sunsets are creeping closer to 5.20 p.m. Sunrise is still before 5.15 a.m. so the husband is happy that the tea gets a little over the prescribed eleven hours and fifteen minutes of daylight.
We had a very wet start to September, but a hot and dry fortnight followed. If only we had some moderation - regular rainfall and not too many ups and downs in temperature! Equinoctial thoughts.
Sunset and sunrise follow a steady pattern, climate change or no climate change. I give you good even.

Cold Weather Games



Cold weather evenings here are touched with melancholy. It becomes dark so early, and the evening is so short. The day does a quick-fade, and spirits dip even as we get a thrill looking at all the play of light in the Western sky.
