Winter Nights |
||||
| Now winter nights enlarge the number of their hours; |
| And clouds their storms discharge upon the airy towers; |
| Let now the chimneys blaze and cups o'erflow with wine; |
| Let voices all be raised in harmony divine. |
| "Winter Nights" excerpts from a very long poem found in Bartlett's Familiar Quotations, 1937. |
| Late afternoon walk along Los Cerritos Trail, Calero County Park. |
| As the light fades, the cloud scenery overhead is often very dramatic. |
| There are a handful of towering oaks on ridges above the trail. |
| Back-lit by light as it fades. |
| The views can be breathtaking. |
| Retracing steps as the light fades. |
| Trees beside the trail are illuminated by the last rays of the sun. |
| The last 2-3 hours of daylight are best for enjoying twilight scenery. |
