This page begins with a sales pitch for our two 2021 Calendars - one created by Daniel and one created by Kazuya - along with links to Amazon for their purchase. After that we take you through the month of October - with all shots this month having been taken right here at home and all of them showing snow buildup, from no snow to about 5 inches of snow, as the month progressed. There is a link for the complete 2021 calendars page at the bottom. Click on any thumbnail to begin.

We have two Siberian Larch trees (Larix sibirica) on our property, both planted some 40 years ago. This is the one which looks the best and in these three autumn color photos it really stands out when the sun strikes it.

On October 2 I looked out the window and saw this incredibly bright sun-dog up in the sky. When I first looked I only noticed the bright light on the left and thought something was weird, but then I noticed the sun itself and had to say WOW! and run outside to try and catch a couple of photos.

Here are three comparison shots of our garden area taken on October 14, 15 and November 1. In the first photo please note that the first snow came late enough this year so that we were able to clean it up and put it to bed in very good condition - we even managed to get the leaves raked up.

In first position is a two-shot panorama which shows the garden and driveway. It is followed by a shot of drooping snow on one of the garden stakes. You can actually find this in the first image if you search. The third photo shows the east yard, the outhouse and the septic tank pump-out place. You may ask why we keep the outhouse, and the answer is "just because it may someday be needed."

In this photo it is snowing, though you probably cannot discern that. The second image is the same photo, but it was processed as a High Dynamic Range image.

The first image in this row is a two-shot panorama, again showing the garden and driveway. The second image is another two-shot panorama, this one, from the driveway looking back at the house.
