Fall Tree 2026

nobody@ipernity.com (HaarFager) — Sat, 31 Oct 2026 16:31:01 +0000

Another year, another set of images of this tree located at the edge of my town. Each year I photograph it when the leaves turn at Autumn. I bought the camera I used to take this picture in 1978, the year before I started photographing this same tree. It's been a long time and I still look forward to doing it every year!

An old barn located just inside the city limits of my little town. I believe that at one time this was outside the city limits, but the town grew around it. I took this shot today and developed it tonight.

Royal Letter

nobody@ipernity.com (HaarFager) — Fri, 28 Aug 2026 20:37:05 +0000

HaarFager has posted:

My user name here and elsewhere on the internet is "HaarFager." I took it from the name of one of my distant relatives; an early Viking king.

In the year 872, Harald Fair Hair, (fair hair in Norwegian is spelled "haar fager"), united all the areas into the country of Norway. Harald had one son who was known as "Haraldsson." The name Haraldsson, over the years, evolved into "Harrelson," which is my name.

Each year, I send a Christmas card to Harald V, King of Norway. I'm pretty sure that distantly we're related somehow. That's how I came to receive the above royal letter, from a very gracious Monarch.

Dolly Parton died today, August 25th, 2026. She was a fabulous songwriter, singer, performer and actress. She had a lot of fans all over the world. I, too, was a fan of her music.

Pictured is one of her signature pies - it was the first store-bought pie I ever purchased. I only got it because Dolly was on it.
