I'm still in scheduled mini-post mode and at this moment hopefully up at the cottage with Frank and Benny. I'll be by to visit and respond to comments sometime after we return. Until then, I hope you enjoy these photos which were taken while there a few weeks back.
An evening walk along the country roads revealed trees painted with golden sunlight. It wouldn't be too much longer until only the moon and stars would provide their light. Time to turn back.
Sigh!
Back at the dock, we catch the last rays of this day's sun before it bids us goodnight.

My first reaction was WOW!, first photo is awesome
beautiufull the little golden brushstrokes...
Light is everything - and you capture it so beautifully.
So agree that the first photo is totally awesome. Have a good trip back and take care.
Could not stop looking at the first picture - amazing!!
Always, the sight of sun sliding down tree trunks makes me think of cathedrals and stained glass windows. Beautiful photos! You can see how the quality of light has changed since mid-summer.
Makes me want to sigh with wonder.
lovely .. just so peaceful ...
Just love that first one...I can just about smell the forest!
Thank you. I found your notes about preposting blog entries, and I'm delighted. :)
Yes, it is a lot of work to make one of these darn things. I'm not a quilter, having fallen into this by force of my college biology teacher, but it's a good outlet for learning. LOL
I love the silhoutted boats on the water. What an awesome sight.
Lovely, lovely, lovely. I am sneaking up there with you next summer.
It makes you wish it could last for hours, instead of just minutes.
Hilary, I adore that first picture! What stories could be imagined from that one photo! So creative.
Lovely! I like when the sun makes everything turn to gold.
It's like the trees are glowing with ribbons of an inner fire - so beautiful.
A few weeks ago, I said that you had posted the best sunset photo ever, but now I'm rethinking that...THIS is stunning!
I hope you have the peace in your life that your photographs depict. :)
I love the way the sun shines the way. And the shadowy nuances of these gorgeous photos.

Shadow dancing.
The trees with the light making designs on them are wonderful. I can't think of an appropriate word to describe the awe.
If this was a contest I'd vote for the last photo although there all beautiful. Can't believe how fast autumn has hit us this year!
They all are beautiful. The light in the top two is something else.
Wow! When I see beauty such as this it quiets me and leaves me in such awe. Enjoy these moments at the cottage. XX
The evening walk through the woods looks absolutely magical. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy the cottage!

I feel a lot of sighs coming on myself. Franks place is just too gorgeous. Who would want to return? Sigh.....
