Indeed it was now near September, and in this high region the days were sensibly shortening.

I've been thinking about this lately, as the days shorten, the night comes early and I reach for the switch on a table lamp.

It was only a week until Christmas, and the days had shortened drastically.

The days were shortening into winter, and dusk came soon.

As the days shorten, there is a change in the reproductive pattern.

Leaves change color, days shorten and finally it is nouveau time.

The days shortened, moving toward Halloween, and beyond that, winter.

The new bars and restaurants are awakening as the days shorten.

But once September is gone, the days shorten suddenly and the temperature drops.

Summer passed, and the days shortened with the approach of autumn.
