Tanning Lines

The blueberry bushes go tanning. The leaves that get the most sun turn red. The leaves on the interior of the plant that are mostly shaded are yellow. A few of them have tan lines where they got good sun on part of the leaf and part of the leaf was shaded by another leaf. This is as close as I get to tan lines. I just burn and peel. I love these evidences of sunlight as we enter the rainy, dark season of the year.

I'm Learning....

This picture of pleated veratrum leaves will be the test.
Yeah!!! I think I've got it!

Just thinking about.....
How great it is to be able to see color. I was out in the fall garden, cleaning up some garden beds and looked around at the last remnants of a more colorful summer - fushia, blue, mauve, yellow-orange - being surrounded by the more mellow tones of fall golds and the soft brown of the soil.

I'm new to blogging - trying to learn - we'll see how it goes.
