THE MEANING OF AUTUMN
WINTER is the shadow, the etching of the seasons in the mist
WINTER is the fire, simmering lonely in the soul
- Gemma Wiseman
AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

I, too, love the contrast of the hard and the soft! Superb capture as always, Gemma! Hope you're enjoying a wonderful weekend!

Such a soft reflection, it's so peaceful.
Pretty nice. I like how the reflection is in the background.
Dyche Designs typed what I was thinking. Nicely captured!
the light is exceptional
The world is so softly reflected in the window.
Beautiful reflections.
Very wild... I like your choice of focus on this one...
What a beautiful photo--the reflection is lovely. Mickie :)
This is wonderful!
You have some other great posts recently, also--the little angel is darling, and the path along the road meditative & calm.
Hope your arm mends quickly!
Gemma...what a pretty sight. Is this a window in your home? If so, you are fortunate to have such a glorious view from it. The colors are lovely. I still have a problem thinking autumn when I am thinking spring and summer. Hope all it well. From the looks of this shot, it is.
