Autumn Leaves
We are into week 2 of Under The Covers and today I have a funky Monday treat.   
Marcus Miller with his take on the Hendrix classic PURPLE HAZE. And I have to say it's great to hear David Sanborn play something other than the "smooth jazz" he's usually associated with.

And now the Hendrix version. Go ahead “kiss the sky”.

Fleeting

Mid Autumn
Autumn's a funny season.   It's always remembered for the changing colors of natures garments.   But that is, in reality only a short part of Autumn.   This week, the first week of November, about one week after this photo was taken, the leaves are almost 100% down (gone, kaput).   Autumn starts in September when leaves are still green and by the second week of October the change in leaf color escalates and you blink and it's over.    The rest of Autumn (the majority) is marked by dark skies, rainy (or snowy) weather and bare trees.  
I suppose that's what make Autumn colors so special - the brevity.   It's temporary status.   Trying to hold on to it is like trying to hold water in your hand.    It slips away of it's own accord, in it's own time and is gone.
Kinda like life.   

happy november

Hello and happy November.   Todays image was just taken this past Saturday 10/30/2021.   To me it is a quintessential Autumn shot with color, texture and the theme of breaking down - the end of life.  Enjoy.
