a November walk

After much pleading and cajoling, and a sufficient layering of clothing, Dexter agreed to go on a walk with me yesterday afternoon.  My parents live in a very beautiful area, and the route we took meanders down by the Essex river.  I grabbed the camera before leaving to be sure to capture the scenes in the winter time (it's almost winter, right?).  Even though it was cold, it was very enjoyable!  I'll post a couple of photos of the same spot in the summer just for a point of comparison.




ah, summer. Don't worry - it shall return!

 



we were trying out the multiple shots at once on the camera, and trying to get pictures of the cat-n-nine blowing in the wind. It kinda worked.
this one is a bit over-exposed, I think, but it also gives it a whimsical look, don't you think?

Then we tried out jumping.  Dexter might have gotten higher off the ground but for all the clothes he was wearing!

We snapped a few pictures of this old truck that seems to just sit on the side of the road.  I know nothing about photo editing but I thought adding an "antique" effect gave it a special charm.


And then, we ended the cold walk with a hot cup of cocoa! There's no better way, really.
