Autumn is the season of wabi-sabi.
Wabi-sabi is a world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection. The aesthetic is sometimes described as one of appreciating beauty that is ‘imperfect, impermanent and incomplete in nature.’

This November I am chasing happiness by photographing and sharing one lovely thing I see each day. I do edit the photos, often with an artistic effect like the one above, because playing with a lovely thing makes me happy.
Note: My son checked with his co-workers and, while they haven’t heard the phrase gan xingfu, they thought it was just fine to use.

I do not know what the actual name of this plant is (please let me know if you do). I call it purple velvet. The hummingbirds like it but they fly away when the pups approach. Today the light was just right.

The clouds gathering this morning made a dramatic back drop for the newly bare trees. I tried out a couple of different treatments on the same photo. Does one appeal to you more than the other (the original is in the header?

The flowers are pretty but I am fascinated by the feathers that grow on clematis seed heads.

A rather belated entry for Paula’s Thursday’s Special Pick a word. Brought on by autumnal inspiration this week.
I didn’t have a separate photo for Consecrated, but I feel like my yard is blessed during this golden season.
For Paula’s Thursday’s Special: Pick a Word.
The past few days have been glorious. The lower angle of the sun makes the fall foliage glow. The blue skies compliment the golden to red palette of fall leaves. We took a long walk today, it is already clouding up and the next few days will be rainy, if the forecasts are correct.
I also want to share this great quote that I found yesterday:
For Sunday Stills: a celebration of leaves.
