On the last day of fall here in New England it is starting to look like winter. During the recent cold snap the 30-acre Bartlett Pond has mostly frozen over. A light snow otherwise covers much of the area.
It is hard to believe that this verdant oasis is the same place - six months ago near the end of spring.
The long shadow of a leaf-less oak makes a good place to hide behind to make this image - except that my elbow shadow is sticking out - I probably didn't need to say that, it could maybe have passed for just another oddly-shaped branch.
Six months ago, same view - we still had a chimney back then.
Even when it is gray and cold and wintry - a special kind of quiet beauty is still apparent on
Bartlett Pond.
