This month I asked my family members to help me create a November Nature Photo entry to share with you. Since we all live in different parts of the county, I thought it would be fun to see what each of us picked as our photo. This turned out even better than expected! What an awesome gallery of autumn themed photos in the collection!
I hope you enjoy the McCoy family November Nature Photos!
This is my husband’s contribution to the gallery. He hikes a certain trail down by the American River about three times a week and each time he sends me a photo right from this spot. I have so enjoyed seeing the change of the season and the change in the lighting as we have worked our way from summer to autumn.
This is my daughter’s image taken on a day hike near her home. I love the way the woods appear to go on forever in the background. The woods in her part of New York are so different than they are here with mostly deciduous trees. Thanks Amanda!
This is Mr. B’s image for November. He chose to use the sky as his background and I love the way the orange and yellow complement the pretty blue sky. Awesome!
I love Mr. A’s photo with the colorful bands of trees bordering the orchards near his New York home. The sky is amazing too. 
I have finally been able to see some colorful leaves in my yard. I love our dogwood tree and find the way it subtly starts to change color and then goes a crimson red color all in one night. Here I caught that transition from green to red.
I think my family should do this every month! It makes me feel more connected to them even though we live thousands of miles apart. They are dreading the winter months with the cold temperatures, snow, and ice. This may help them to find some beauty in their surroundings despite the winter blahs.
Don’t forget that there are nature photo ideas on the planning page found in each month’s Handbook of Nature Study newsletter.
Did you take any November nature photos yet?
Gorgeous photos and a wonderful way to share with family!
Thank you! It really made me feel good to see that all of the time we spent outdoors as a family as they grew up has given them an eye for the natural beauty all around them. They regularly send me photos of the things they see and are drawn to. Wishing you all the best.
These are SO beautiful! And I agree, I fun way to share with family – Gorgeous November!
Makes us feel so much closer.
What beautiful pictures and how lovely the colour are! What a great way to stay connected as a family!
It was a fun idea for a post! So glad you enjoyed the images.
This turned out really really cool!
