While I’m waiting for an important email, I went for a walk. Such a lovely morning walk today.
Everything was covered in a thin white mist. The trees, fields, bushes — the whole landscape looked a little dreamy, as if someone had put a soft veil over everything.
Autumn mornings really have something special about them. The crisp air, the quiet, the muted colours, and then those little glimpses of the landscape through the mist.
I loved it.
There wasn’t anything particularly special about the walk itself. Just me, the autumn morning and the countryside.
But sometimes that is more than enough.

Ilze – you and your husband picked your home very well . . . it may be a bit of a distance when you need shops and doctors and dentists . . . but the green beauty of the surrounds does obviously leads to happy feelings . . . beautiful roads surrounded by so many friendly trees . . . enjoy your autumn . . .
Thank you, Eha. In Latvia this time has special name – veļu laiks. Do you remember weather Estonia call this time of the year by the name of “Time of the Souls” or “Quite time” ?
Don’t laugh – ere going off for a few hours I asked Mr Google and he said in Estonia there was a ‘Soul’s Day’ on the 2nd of November ??? Sorry, but I don’t remember 🙂 ! Your surrounds DO look very peaceful and beautiful tho’ !
Might be, I don’t know. It was a lovely walk… short but still, I’m so happy to have such a lovely views on my doorstep 🙂
The mist adds a magic touch.
It sure does 🙂
Very beautiful countryside! ❤️
Thank you, that is 10 feet from my home 😉 I’m so lucky to live there.
Wow!! So incredibly beautiful!
I really enjoyed the photo with the orb weaver’s web! So cool!
Thank you, webs are everywhere 🙂 It’s getting colder and when sun shines I can see whole yard full of flying spiders with long strings 🙂 Such a lovely view but also need to watch when I’m going through 🙂
There is a reason Keats wrote about mists and mellow fruitfulness, and it seems you have it in abundance (and I am very slightly jealous!)
Thank you 🙂 there is a reason… I agree
