I just wanted to share some of the beautiful shots I've been lucky enough to capture this Fall and early Winter. It's usually about this time of year that the air begins to thin and outdoor scenery photos seem to take on a new life. A clarity that Summer photos just don't seem to capture. It's the time of year when there's a crisp chill that almost steals your breath and holds everything pristine.

A long pier bathed in the glow of sunset light in Gloucester, Ma. One of my favorite beaches, there's always something to photograph!

And ond of my favorite lighthouses on Winter Island on a blustery but beautiful day.

My children watching the sunset at Lake Massabesic. You know I can't resist a portrait opportunity!
Or an excuse to take photos of my kids.

The smaller lakes are already freezing, I love the designs that the freezing top layer makes on the surface of the water.

And all of the leaves are falling off the trees, leaving bony limbs and barren branches.

And just to give you a giggle... Kissing horses.

I took these in Methuen, Ma. at the MSPCA while I was there to pick up a bag of hay for our rabbit. These two gave eachother ''kisses'' for several minutes and offered me some really nice shots!

Pristine blue sky day. Perfect for going out to run some errands! Especially when you find subjects like these two.

There are still spots of color left, but it's found more on the red ivy climbing the brick walls of one of the first mansions in the United States, found in Salem, Ma.

Soon Winter will blanket New England and the landscape will change once again. So I'll stare at the sea and soak up the sun while I can...

I'll see you soon with holiday photos!
