I saw this sight on a drizzly chilly afternoon here in Blenheim NZ, and had to walk back out into the rain to take this shot.
How could you not? For me, THIS is mindfulness. Just taking the second it takes to acknowledge the beauty around you.
Make it a practice to notice, to appreciate scenes like these when they are given.
Autumn in wine country
Layers of color collide
Olives drip from the branches in an early evening rain.
Leaves leave their tri-colored flag on the floor
a stoplight of red, yellow, green.
