This has never happened before but now it will. There will be two October posts for my Calendar 2020. I simply couldn’t choose only 20 photos, so another 20 will follow soon.
Last October I went on two such mega trips that I could post only photos from those two days. And I will, but in the second post one day soon. Today twenty photos from all the other days.
Doing these Calendar posts are good for me. They remind me that I must not let months go by without catching their magic. October is full of it, I must just go and see.
These are in the order as taken, ending with the many moons of Halloween. Tender is the light.
We two are one. 
My hood. Monte Argentario peninsula. 
A walk by the Orbetello lagoon. 
Well… We’ed be waiting. 
A kind of weed. 
I love this shot, blurry and all. 
They came over and we stared at each other. Maremma cattle next to our beach. 
Here it is, the Tyrhennian sea (which I’m never sure how to spell). 
The ghost dog. 
Better this way, golden. 
It can be very mellow, this sea, or it can bring over huge tree trunks. 
I discovered a new trail over the fields. Bestia dares to pass this bridge, but only just. 
The sunset from this trail. 
Another sunset ten days later. 
I get upset when I see that nobody picks pomegranates in their gardens. I should just take them. 
This was a beautiful walk. Bestia is golden again. 
Capalbio on the hill, our closest town. 
I love these natural Christmas ornaments. 
When two tribes go to war. 
Booo, I am the full moon! No, I am! No, I am! No, I am! No, I am! No, I am!

Thank you, Dan, I’m glad you do. The second part will come this weekend. Yesterday we didn’t have internet for 10 hours, and today they will cut our water supply again because another pipe broken in our neighbours’ garden. If this becomes the norm, there will be so much “fun”.

I always take them as well, and lemons and figs….Locals get spoiled. Don’t know how precious this abundance is.
Of course you couldn’t choose only 20.

Lots of fun photos here, Manja. You live in a beautiful area. Did you help yourself to one of the pomegranates? 🙂 –Curt

Thank you, Curt. 🙂 I haven’t, I’d need to trespass for it. I bought two in the shop but they weren’t quite ripe. That made me angry seeing them dangle and obviously ready. 😀

Your hood is lovely!! I like the lagoon and those Christmas ornament fruit or bloom? I’ve seen that plant in my old home town but not here in my new one.

It looks like it. 😀 I hear Israel has weather very much like San Diego where it’s almost perfect! I’m sure I’d like both places should I ever be so lucky to visit either.

Stunning shots, love the compositions, especially the strong horizon lines, bold. The lagoon reflection shot is a beaut, plus I find myself so taken with the palm tree! It reminds me so much of a tall man with an Afro standing proudly. The light is that gorgeous orange when it’s about to set, love it 🙂
