It's almost the last day of the year, but I'm still thinking of July, August, September--those months. It was a clear, cold day today, with no snow. The ground was frozen this morning. It gets dark early, but soon it will be January, the month when some of the most amazing sunrises take place.
Last night I took a couple shots of Jupiter and the moon. The sky was partly clouded over, so I don't know whether Jupiter will show up in the photos. I'm not sure when I took the photo below.

Here you see the consequences of summer-long grass growth. It accumulates along the edge. While the man who mows the lawn takes the more or less flat areas down to a stubble, the dry grass at the edge, and beyond, remains.
It can be hard to decide which is the definitive image of a given subject, even when one is making a selection from amongst images taken within a period of a few seconds. The multiplicity of images and the unresolved decision as to which should represent the subject may, in fact, be the subject.
I've mentioned some strong lights I sometimes see from the Viewpoint when it's dark. I think they're stadium lights, but if so, the stadium is definitely not Husky Stadium.
