Fall Color 3

rcn - those are absolutely gorgeous!! Eleanor

A walk in the park.

The falls ones are nice Debbie.

I've posted a few over in the photos thread - here's a fall color, light or dark?

Great shot Deb! Amazing gold.

Deb, the gold just glows.
Here is a shot of our blueberry leaves turning.

amazing color! We aren't in full swing yet.,

Cornus and Crape.

One of the Crapes.

Gorgeous colors!!

JM, Crape...JM, Crape...JM, Crape?

Both!

Lovely photos! Debbie - those were very nice and colorful! Al - very interesting shot from your blue period! Bebop and Victor - Nice color too! Things are much greener here than we expected. No signs of fall anywhere though!!

Al, getting ready for Thanksgiving dinner?

Now that we've finally had our first frost, maybe there will be some 'local' color photos to share. Unfortunately with the rains and wind last week, alot of the leaves are already down.

debilu, your shot of the "walk in the park" reminds me of the fall walks I used to take through the ridge of Beeches on my property in Maine - "pure gold".

'Sarah's Favorite' Crape.

JM - forgot which.

'Pee Wee' Oakleaf Hydrangea.

ooh - i have some fall color at last!
here is something from the edge of my woods with berries. i dunno what it is, but if it is back there it is probably: A. poisonous B. rash-inducing C. invasive or D. all of the above!
Makes a kinda pretty picture though...

and west rock was looking nice (thru the power lines)!

Victor - thanks for the advice on the leaves way back!! Eleanor

You're very welcome Eleanor.

Amethystsm, that looks like euonymus (burning bush) just getting its color started. Here's a picture DH took of me in front of one last week (autumn is much farther along here than New Haven).

bebop, what a nice setting, and Victor love all three, can't decide what to add next year - good thing I have all winter to think about it.

I like that hydrangea, Victor.

Bebop2 ~ great photo!

Amy ~ I think that we have the same 'berry bush' up here, and it's very invasive in my back yard, although it looks very pretty this time of year.

Very nice.

Autumn color seems to be kicking in now. I'm hoping it's nice this weekend as the family is coming out.

Where were they hiding, Anita?? Hee hee. It's supposed to be sunny and a bit chilly - like it should be.

Oakleaf Hydrangea (Snowflake) from underneath.

Wonderful photos, Victor, Amy and Bebop! The color is still really pretty up there! Victor - that Crape is so pretty....I didn't realize they were such fall charmers!!

Bebop - that is such a nice picture of you in your lovely setting!!

Eleanor - has the color gone now from your area?

Debbie - is it drying out in your area of Louisiana yet? I hope it isn't still as dreary as it was a week ago for you!!

The color is not only gone but most of the leaves are down. There's only a few leaves left hanging on the trees. My DH should be able to rake up most of the leaves this weekend and then of course we have them blowing into our yard from the neighbors yards. Eleanor

Not much color left here, except for the orange of the pumpkins on the picnic table, and the red of the crab apples still on the trees across the road from my house. The lawn looks awesome, though! It's really a healthy looking green!!!

things are finally getting pretty here - driving down 15 yesterday was really beautiful - no time for pictures though!

Same around here - starting to look real nice.

View from my BR. Unidentified Crape practically on fire. Norway Spruces on either side. In the back is the large JM that I limbed up and recently under planted with six smaller JM's.

Closer shot of the Crape.

Great pics!!!!! Victor you have a room with a view!!!!

Thanks - yes, especially this time of year.

What great flare you have to see when you wake up. It looks like it might glow in the dark, though. It is THAT bright!!

Victor, I love that combination of colors.
Here is one from my hike in the park yesterday.

Beautiful, bebop2!
It looks like you had a wonderful hike.

Thats a lovely pic bebop. Very relaxing looking and the color is stunning!

Yes - stunning is the right word, bebop. Lighting is perfect.

I took my photo on an overcast day - it really is brighter and more impressive than it looks in that shot.
