Will o’ the Wisp

This last few days have been pretty hectic, & as is usually the case, ~ so much effort and too little to show for it all.
It seems that it was just a few short weeks ago that the weather was a balmy 38c, that in itself was crazy for Sept/October.
~ Summer Fall & Winter ~

Seems we missed the fall somewhere along the way, even the leaves for the most part, just rotted on the trees before falling away. Real will-o’-the-wisp weather if you ask me, for after reaching low’s of -3c this last week, today was up again to an unrealistic +13c.
In keeping with the weather, today we went to the park!
So here are a couple or so shots of a will-o’-the-wisp fall season!



Leaves stubbornly hanging on.



Pampas grass? A bright sight, in the cool fall weather.


Hmmmm It's that man again!



Cool clear waters



Cool clear brilliant sky.

I love these photos Eric - almost hard to believe that winter will soon be upon us again. For us it was autumn most of the year; summer never made an appearance LOL

Leon said...

Great photos. . .as usual. ;-)

Always refreshing to see your photos. The weather's been a bit wacky here too. One day slightly cool then the next unbelievably hot.

Hope you enjoy the rest of the season :)

They did turn out ok, I am glad you liked them Janice.

I think Global warming has messed up the seasons and is to blame for your missing summer! LOL

What a beautiful place Eric. I love seeing your pictures.

And the weather is odd isn't it? Yesterday it was almost 80 degrees (don't know what that works out to in celcius) today I'm not sure we hit 50.

Hi Z 25c =77f so that could be close enough maybe. Today we were warm too & the rest of whenever will be down to around 5c or 41f... (1c= 1.8f)

Yes the pictures always seem to turn something up, no matter the weather. :)
