Of Pale Yellow Mornings ...

“There are pale yellow mornings, when the mist burns slowly into day, the air stings like autumn …”

            ~ Robert Hass

                 ~ born 1941

       ~ Poet Laureate of the United States

            ~ 1995 ~ 1997

The mist rises poetically soon after sunrise on a brisk and beautiful late October morning near the Ford of the Jordan Creek, one of my very favorite places to be and to photograph at Trexler Nature Preserve, Schnecksville, Pennsylvania.

Spun Gold ...

Autumn has spun its golden beauty in the towering trees that reach for the bright morning sky on a beautiful mid-October day at Upper Saucon Township Community Park, Upper Saucon Township, Pennsylvania. Dedicated in 1996, the park covers approximately 50 acres and includes nearly two miles of walking/jogging trails that segue into the Saucon Rail Trail.

Daisy Maze Of A May Morning ...

“… I got daisies in green pastures, I got my man, who could ask for anything more?...”

               ~ “I Got Rhythm”

           ~ composed by George Gershwin,

               lyrics by Ira Gershwin

                        ~ 1930

A maze of wild daisies ~ simple, joyful flowers that are my very favorite ~ dance in the morning sun on a beautiful late May day at Trexler Nature Preserve, Schnecksville, Pennsylvania.

I shot this the morning of May 31, 2022 after taking sunrise photos at the preserve. I spent several hours walking through the preserve’s beautiful spring scenery with the air soft and warm in the low 70s before temperatures soared into the 90s.
