oakosaurus...

Posted by ordinaryimages (Kentucky Bluegrass, United States) on 8 October 2009 in Plant & Nature.

It’s not quite Fall here yet, but I’m having trouble in making the transition. The progression of rainy tropical flows followed by windy blue sky cold fronts have me gotten me off my game. It’s incredible the amount of outdoor wear stashed in my truck to meet the variety of terrain and weather conditions I encounter. I like to think I don’t have much stuff...but there is sure a bunch of it!

This creature of the earth is well set off here by the shadows of the grasses. :-)
So, your fall weather is coming on...ours---not so much. It's still warm enough to eat outdoors.
Only need a light jacket early morning and late night. Soon, though.

Hier war ein SW-Experte am Werk. Gute Arbeit. Auch die anderen Fotos in dem Portfolio waren nicht schlecht.

Wonderfully seen and with your usual sense of wry humor. Thanks for the smile.

Sounds familiar. I wear a uniform and it's dictated when we change from short to long sleeves. This time of year always calls for an odd mix of short sleeve shirts and rain/cold weather gear.

Great image here. The composition is great and I really like the texture of the ground.
