A corn field in Northfield, with the Connecticut river at my back:
That’s gonna be a lot of corn.
I wonder where it’s bound.
Taken this afternoon under indeterminate heavens. By way of Elliot, with perhaps a degree and a half of tilt, with a hand-held filter to bring the sky into range.
It’s A-Comin’! November 8, 2010

…Winter, that is.
Last night the wind blew and the sleet and freezing rain pelted the house; this morning’s ride over the mountain to work was slow and nerve-wracking, as I’m waiting ’till after my December auto inspection to put my studded snows on.
Still, I’m a big fan of winter. I’m amazed by it, by the aesthetics of shimmering ice, of the remnants of Autumn entombed in sparkling light, of steely skies swirling over a landscape lit by the long, low rays of a cold sun.
I broke out Elliot to snag this shot on the way home:
I’m always struck by that deep-blue-horizon thing which happens as a storm recedes eastward.
I’ll apologize ahead of time for boring you all to tears with this stuff, but I just can’t get enough of it, and Lord knows I need the practice ! 😉
