The day after half turkey day. Buy nothing day in our household. Yesterday we cooked all afternoon and attended two zoom parties. Today was sunny and a balmy 6C (40F). Time for me to get outside, phone camera in hand… I headed to Cherokee Marsh Conservation Park, a few miles from our place.
Try the new window shade technology below. Click and drag the arrow in the center circle left or right to see the photo change from color to black and white and back again.
I had a great hour autumn walk. Which is your favorite season to walk?

Love your nature photos, Rebecca. I’m swiping the color/black and white curtain back and forth haha.
Enjoy the weekend.

Is it a WordPress gadget? I’m curious. 😀

Yes, it is. When at the plus sign as you write your post you can select image, paragraph and so on, you select “compare”. Then you upload the two images and the fun begins. ¡Olé!

It’s a fun feature, isn’t it? I’ve used it a few times, but I think it works really well for comparing colour with black and white. 🙂 🙂

You had a great walk, and a great time playing with ‘image compare’. I think colour wins on points here!

What a beautiful clear blue sky! I soaked up as much sunlight as I could outdoors, taking care of my succulent garden. Two neighbors stopped by for a chat, keeping a safe social-distancing, something I greatly miss during this pandemic.

There really is a beauty to walks in the wintertime. I especially enjoy the cold, so it’s always a pleasure to take a stroll in my neighborhood during the cooler months. And yes, the black-and-white photos make for such atmospheric views! Thanks for sharing. 🙂

Thanks, Rebecca. Yes, it’s wonderful to generate my own heat as I walk in late fall and winter. I like the black and white prairie grasses.

Thanks, Janet, that would be fun! We went as a family today and walked the other half of the route. By the end the almost full moon was rising while the sun was setting. Very pretty place.

I like the fall…take a walk in the leaves with my Sweetie in a crisp, sunny day.
When I was about 15, my cousin and I were taking a shortcut from my house to his thru a large northern oak forest. We didn’t know it but hundreds of crows were nesting in the tree tops. The noise we made in the leaves spooked them and they all took wing. It sounded like the whole forest was caving in! I froze; my cousin ran for home. When I realized what it was I yelled “Crows! Crows!” But he was long gone. I just stood there and laughed.

Thanks for your comments. Welcome to Fake Flamenco! Crows can make a heck of a lot of noise. Our neighborhood is proof of that!

Thanks for your comment! It’s the “compare” feature in the menu where you choose paragraph, image, and so on. Hope you have fun with it. Cat hijinks, perhaps?
