Whenever I go to my grandmother's house (which is rare, now, because she's living in a nursing home), I love to photograph the little things that remind me of her: a pillow, a comfortable chair, a glass and spoon. She gives me roots, which gives me a sense of lightness, too.
Here in Southern California, we don't have a 'real' fall season, but it's the temperature is starting come down from the 90's to the high 70's/low 80's and THAT makes me feel light today. LOL. Here's my shot from our annual 'fall festival': http://www.flickr.com/photos/jeroldssis/2974030910/
ooOOoo I can't believe this is your topic today! I took my camera to work last night (don't even know why lol) and on the ride home it was very foggy this am. I kept seeing these rays of light come thru the tree's..but couldn't stop. Finally I was on a small country road and just Had to stop the car as tired as I was to take a few pics. Then when I got home and was making breakfast, I saw the sun shining thru my dirty kitchen. I thought it was still lovely.
This is a photo of my baby sister - it was 70 degress in early June up in New England. She wanted to jump in the water so badly and without a single thought she ran right in...I love the how free she looks and how light she seems to feel. http://www.flickr.com/photos/28838925@N06/2720766626/

Also going barefoot, which is slowly going away as fall is turning cold down here.
