Late Summer Sunset

Under the waning days of late Summer, I have begun preparing my senses for Autumn. A quick peek back at my Autumn-labeled posts from last year serve me as a small reminder of how much I love the upcoming season. Not that I necessarily need electronic documentation of my autumn ardor, but I think it nice to recollect how the season's inspiring intensity has made me feel in the past. The days are cooler and the green countryside is starting to take on yellow, gold, and orange hues. Autumn is a beautiful time for the senses to be re-awoken. Let me tell you now that I revel in it! With a only few more days to go on the calendar, here is one last late Summer adventure. Let's call it a traipse through the trees/in the garden at twilight.






Cardigan and shirt: H&M, Necklace: self made
Shorts: self made from old Levi's, Moccasins: Minnetonka

I adore autumn - it used to be my least favorite season, no I love it above and beyond the rest. It's such a lovely time of year. :)

I love Fall, too, and I don't think there is anything wrong with having a digital archive of your thoughts and why Fall makes you happy :)

I hope you are feeling better!

that's a beautiful photo of the sunset!! it loks almost desert-like actually because of the somewhat undulating profile of the dark scenery in the background? What is it anyway? :D

ahhh autumn must be wonderful for you! are there any things you and your family like to do in the fall? heh even raking leaves has taken on such a romantic feel for me (because of what i've seen in movies) though i'm sure it's not that nice when you're actually doing it...

heh i'm in this club in university that sings a cappella music! there are about 40+ members so we usually split up into groups of 5 or 6 to sing songs during gigs/concerts like the one we just had... i joined last year and there's soo much to learn so yeah X) am getting there.

I really like the last picture of those plants in the sunset, and the one before that one with the sun rays shining through the leaves. It's almost magical! And your floral blouse is very pretty.

I do love autumn but am very happy its spring over here right now ;)

Unknown said...

Oh! One of the photos is your twitter icon. I think spring and summer are the most colourful, fun parts of the entire year. Summers tend to be green all over and winter is just bleak. I'm excited for you, doll!

Oh wow, that sunset is gorgeous! If I didn't know you for a northern girl, I would have imagined the last photo in a desert somewhere.
