A Landscape of One's Own
- Carol
- For thirty years, I have been farming/gardening, observing and documenting a twenty-acre New England hillside paradise, which includes organic wildly cultivated rambling gardens, fields of wildflowers and organic blueberries, forest, fabulous views and expanse of sky. My greatest joy in working with the land is seeing how my farm has evolved into a habitat . . . home to a diverse community of wildlife. My blog is a journal of all the comings and goings of the flora and fauna here. All the photographs featured are taken at Flower Hill Farm ~ unless noted otherwise.

In one hour and forty-six minutes it will be autumn here. It used to be my favorite season and I admit the weather is nearly perfect. Still, the days are getting shorter and winter isn't far behind.
Your photos are very beautiful. They have a very dreamy and serene quality.
Marnie
As always great images,Carol. happy Autumn.

Happy autumn to you, Carol! I'd like to sit in one of those chairs and enjoy a morning in your lovely garden.
Hi!
With inspiration from you and your photos, I went out a morning in the mist with my camera. One of the photos you can see here:http://anna-aroseisaroseisarose.blogspot.com/2009/09/tradgardstema-klatterstod.html , second photo.
Lovely misty photos as usual!/

I always love seeing pictures of your garden and the hills beyond. The asters are beautiful and the scenes so peaceful.
Really lovely homage to the equinox.
I just love all your pictures. Picture no two: Is it not the same chairs as in my header? Funny! Have a beautiful autumn-day with lots of sun.
Thank you :) a true pleasure, as allways :)
Beautiful! And happy autumn to you too!
Happy Autumn, indeed! We, in New England have been blessed with the most pleasant weather. It almost makes up for the shortening days.
Seeing your gardens through these past seasons has been like making an acquaintance and moving deeper into the relationship. Today, I love all the soft focus . . . intentional and not.
Beautiful images to celebrate the autumn equinox.
K
You've 'captured' Autumn perfectly!
Love the Miscanthus by the way.
