Yesterday, I was sitting on our deck luxuriating in the last summer day and gazing out at the lake. I was marvelling at how absolutely beautiful our September has been. So far, no frost, no rain, and my flowers are as gorgeous as they were a month ago – unheard of! This weekend hubby and I plan to take the boat out as much as possible – for morning coffee, lunch, and sunset. The colours should be at their very best and if the lake stays as glassy as it has been all week – well, you can imagine how that could stir the soul of any photographer! a glorious weekend ahead – there is absolutely “a harmony in autumn, and a lustre in the sky”.

So beautiful – soak in every last minute. I wish the sun would come out here. It’s been so gloomy.
These are truly lovely. I hate to see the flowers go, but every season has its beauty. :) Thanks for the comment on my blog.

How big is that lake at the bottom of your garden that you can boat on it?
What luxury. It looks fabulous.

is the first one a cut-out of number two? if so, i have a lot to learn, oh my… anyway, it looks wonderful – enjoy autumn!
Such color, clarity and purity. Love it. Looks like you live in the perfect setting for someone with a passion for photography! Thank you for showcasing this piece at Photo Art Friday!
Beautiful photos! This is the best side of autumn when it is colorful and the leaves are still on the trees, and nice light.
Very stunning!!! =)
Both a wonderful close up flower shot and of the view – really love how and where the line of flowers is positioned in your photo. It’s a pleasure to view lovely work like this.
The leaves are really starting to turn where you are — I can only imagine how much fun you’ll have taking photos of your fall color. Oops, I mean colour! ;)
wonderful sunny colours, I love the words too, lovely. There’s definitely a nip in the air at night here now, I love Autumn :)
A lovely colorful post. Every seasons has its moments. As we head towards summer, I’m looking forward to seeing your autumn colors.

These are stunning, I can’t even pick a fav between the two. The trees are beginning to take on that beautiful fall color, enjoy, enjoy, and enjoy some more.

Your weekend sounds wonderful! I would love to have a boat (and close access to water!) Well, I should qualify…we have a pond and we have a boat. But we have to either paddle it or row it and our pond is currently covered in duck weed. :(
Your view is stunning, your flowers delightful and your photos so beautiful. Sigh….so lovely.
Oh, to live near a body of water! How wonderful! And beautiful photos – I hope you captured some wonderful shots over the weekend!
simply beautiful, what a wonderful view you have to enjoy
It looks to me like you live in heaven! I love the underside shots. Absolutely gorgeous.
