If there is one thing I love about September, it’s the light. That gorgeous, mellow light that streams through the living room window in the morning and illuminates the kitchen in the evening. Light that lingers low in the sky. Light that makes for beautiful, wistful scenes on a walk through the neighbourhood. It’s a light that seeps through the hedgerows, lengthening the shadows, highlighting the golds and greens with its golden glow. More so than at any other time of the year, this is the light I love best.

September light and its long shadows

Even on a cool Saturday morning, that lovely light makes for a pretty scene in the garden, showing off the last of the pink flowers.
Early morning light

And perhaps my favourite scene so far….the hedgerows in the evening golden hour.

In all honesty, I can’t believe the month has passed so quickly. I wish it would linger a little longer. What about you? What have you been enjoying in September? Feel free to share in the comments below. I’ll leave you with this quote from Henry David Thoreau:-
‘Happily we bask in this warm September sun, which illuminates all creatures’.
Thanks for stopping by,

It’s the distinct slant of light for me, too. The variety of colour, the smell of decomposing leaves in the sun. 😊
Oh yes I know exactly what you mean about the slant of light….😊
I like seeing my tall shadow too. Definitely not tall in real either. Lovely photos. 🙂
Aww..Thank you. The best things come in small packages and all that…lol 😊
Beautiful photos! 💞
Thank you 😊
I get you about the tall thing 🙂 September light is beautiful, especially when it falls against all those golden leaves.
Good to hear I’m not the only one on the tall thing 😊
It’s the light and the colours for me too. A day like today is just perfect: fresh, crisp yet warm enough to sit outside and enjoy it all!
Oh yes I know what you mean. Nothing beats a crisp, dry day with sunshine 😊
Absolutely love the pictures ❤
Oh thank you very much..that’s very kind of you 😊
