Spectacular Show Of Autumn Colours
Autumn or Fall is a wonderful time of year for colour. There are still flowers about and they are beautiful. Then there are the autumn leaves which are changing on a daily basis through all the glorious rich earthy colours of red and yellow-gold and bronze and purple.
Autumn/Fall is such a stunning time I have tried to capture this brief moment in photographs.
I started taking the autumn/fall photos in September and will take a selection each Month after that.
I have another lens on why I love Autumn and found there was just too many photos I love to add to that lens so this site is devoted to colour!
All these photographs were taken by me in places near my home starting in September. I just want you to join me in gazing and appreciating the beauty of nature in this moment.
Please be courteous and do not copy any of the photographs without asking me.
Beautiful Autumn trees:September
"Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness"
To Autumn by William Blake
With the blood of the grape, pass not, but sit
Beneath my shady roof; there thou may'st rest,
And tune thy jolly voice to my fresh pipe,
And all the daughters of the year shall dance!
Sing now the lusty song of fruits and flowers.
'The narrow bud opens her beauties to
The sun, and love runs in her thrilling veins;
Blossoms hang round the brows of Morning, and
Flourish down the bright cheek of modest Eve,
Till clust'ring Summer breaks forth into singing,
And feather'd clouds strew flowers round her head.
'The spirits of the air live in the smells
Of fruit; and Joy, with pinions light, roves round
The gardens, or sits singing in the trees.'
Thus sang the jolly Autumn as he sat,
Then rose, girded himself, and o'er the bleak
Hills fled from our sight; but left his golden load.

- Another lens of beauty, joy and celebration for the wonders of the seasons. Thank you so much for sharing your passion. I couldn't vote for just one autumn color. That would be like trying to decide which snowflake is prettiest!
