Oh, I know what you mean. The bright trees seem like spotlights when they catch the corner of my eye. Your third photo is wondrous. I love the layers of hills. I have tried many times to get that, but it takes very special atmospheric conditions for me to get a clear image. You nailed it.

I'm the author of The Elizabeth Goodweather Appalachian Mysteries from Bantam Dell. The series includes SIGNS IN THE BLOOD (LA MONTAGNE DES SECRETS in France), ART'S BLOOD, (LE SECRET DES APPALACHES in France,) OLD WOUNDS,IN A DARK SEASON (Anthony Nominee, Best PBO), and UNDER THE SKIN. There's also THE DAY OF SMALL THINGS (a spinoff/standalone)chronicling the unexpected life story of Miss Birdie, one of Elizabeth's neighbors.
I came to this weird business late (my first novel was published in 2005) and am still trying to figure it out.
As my novels are set in a place much like my real life home, I thought I'd use this blog to share pictures of our farm and county. I've been blogging for over five years now, on an almost daily basis, and the topics have ranged from writing, chickens, food, books, quilts, flora and fauna of all sorts, to the occasional tiny rant. There's no plan, but there are lots of pictures.

These are great and the title is perfect... they do capture the light!
What a beautiful set of photos you put together. Loved seeing the soft hay bales after the spiky trees.
Gorgeous set of pictures!
Not only light and colour, but all important textures. Delightful, Vicki.

Yes I know what that light looks like and all the greying trees on the mountainside. When I read your Blog, I come home.... (smile)
oo i like the second of the home....and that last one with the once vine of leaves....very cool...
I loved the bowl of light in the holler.
Very nice! Loved the hay bales best.
Pretty and delicate.
Light, colour, shapes - I love the first tree, it's like a flame.
Wonderful, all of these, but I particularly love the last one; great capture of the light and elegant spiral dance.
