S. celebrate Thanksgiving. It's always good to stop and take stock of the things for which we are thankful, no matter where we live or if we have a holiday set aside for such things. We have beautiful places to take our gear and photograph the wonders around with our own unique vision. Find 20 deer and 20 photographers and you'll get hundreds of different images. Are there ever enough? Can any of us take enough images of the things we love in nature? No, probably not. It's something to be thankful for.</p> <p>Here's wishing all of you, everywhere, the spirit of a day of thanks for the goodness in our lives. Thanks for coming to join in the good times here each week. Thanks for sharing what you know, what you see, your amazing photography, and a bit of who you are.</p> <p>Happy Thanksgiving.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordonjb Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 <p>Winter is upon us now and seems to be settling in to stay.<br /> I still have plenty of fungi photos from this autumn to work on, during those cold dark months ahead.<br /> Here are a group of Galerina marginata from a few weeks back.<br /> The small round balls are Lycogala epidendrum Wolf's Milk slime mold.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Weishaupt Posted November 21, 2016 Author Share Posted November 21, 2016 <p>Gordon,<br> I'm glad that you had plenty of fungi, and I always enjoy your images. The woodlands around here were very dry and we were reduced to old dried up bracket fungi. I'll hope for better, and who knows, maybe we'll have warm temps ahead and I'll find fresh fungi in January.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biomed Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 <p>More ducks in an Autumn pond. There's just a little bit of Autumn color left here in Connecticut and the colors look better when reflected. Taken in early morning light.</p> <center><img src="http://d6d2h4gfvy8t8.cloudfront.net/18312917-lg.jpg" alt="_E6A4657" width="1000" height="667" border="0" /></center> <center>Canon 7D II + 70-200mm f/4 lens</center> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_de_ley Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 <p>I'm fortunate to visit Argentina on a regular basis. The diversity of plants and animals new to me is all the greater here, and thus the "never enough time" factor all the more pronounced!</p> <div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Currie Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 <p>Visiting in Georgia for a while, and traveling very light, my only camera is a ten year old Canon pocket camera, but I was walking along the Augusta canal when this fellow decided to cross. I think it's a plain old black snake, though only about three and a half feet long and rather thin compared to his prodigious Vermont cousins.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkag Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 <p>Some vertical driftwood at Presque Isle State Park - I'm not sure how much of the sand at this particular beach is man-laid and how much is natural - nonetheless, I'm kind of fascinated to know just how much tree is buried under there.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
