Your R System Images - October 2024

Hi MIke,

A series of shots guaranteed to raise the spirits (of people in central England gazing out the window at another dreary and thoroughly soggy morning).

Glorious colours in abundance, beautifully captured and presented - well done (and keep them coming!).

Thank you for sharing... :)

Thanks! I'm the same way, I enjoy looking at all the colors.
The colors will be changing for the next few weeks, so hopefully, I'll be posting more :)

Yesterday at Nose Hill Park, Calgary. Trying to get some fall colours. We are having a great fall, temps are still in the mid-teens during the day and hardly below freezing at night.

Imagine, if you will, the noise my wife made when this little fellow scooted out of one of the folders she had spread out on the floor of her office...

They seem to be quite common around our farm - we have at least one living in the swimming pool pump shed - and a few years ago I found one smaller than this hiding behind the cushions on the living room sofa. They do like coming inside, apparently, but it also shows how much room there must be under some of our doors. I knew the place was drafty, but it's not supposed to leak animals.

Hi Gareth,

Karen would have absolutely loved this, but I'd be leaving the door open so your wife could follow me out after rapidly exiting stage left... 😅

On a serious note, that's quite a sight - incredibly piercing eyes - you did rather well to capture it so beautifully (steady hands!).

Thank you for sharing... :)
