this hosta with the foliage really stands out
Fall Photo's....lets share.
Louise, Thanks for the pics of Jaffrey. We never got that way this weekend. Cyndie
In the back yard with my golden retriever
Another swamp maple near the other
Great pictures everyone.
beautiful
Wonderful shot with the dog, Maria!
Victor, I love my handsome Samson
He looks like a great friend!
I want to recomend a great book.
This is especially for people who love dogs.
"The Story of Edgar Sawtelle"
I wanted a dog after I read this book.
I have been a cat person for years, mostly because I travelled a lot and couldn't afford boarding fees.
ge, I do like dogs but not every breed, golden retriever are just perfect for a family pet, they love people, love to be around them, we always had a dog as a pet mostly collies, they are great too. I will try to get a hold of this book, thank you for suggesting it.
I was reminded of the book when I saw your golden.
Looks like everyone is getting some nice color. Yay!
I think I finally got some decent pix.
This one is I think in the common land, taken from my back deck. I love the mix of colors on the same tree!
(note: my pix are probably best viewed when seeing the whole thing?)
Here's a shot of the striped maples that line my backyard (it is the woodland edge, but still my property). Not quite all yellow yet.
A view of trees a couple doors down in the back. Nice mix of colors
Color of my red maple(s) in back
a closer look at some leaves
a view of the grass
Lovely!! We are now at peak here in Maine....it will be over before I know it!
Where the grass meets the woodland edge. That's striped maple in yellow. And a thicker mix of leaves on the ground here. Wind hasn't come through yet :)
I turned off the stream on Sat :( It is a mess -- I have quite the cleanup in spring (so much algae this year)
Very nice, Eve! That's a bit depressing, Celeste.
Victor it is, but spring will surely come
Encouraging thoughts, Maria!
Victor, I would not give up the four seasons for all the rice in china as the saying goes, nor would I want to spend winter in sunny places, have done that don't like it
I love the change of seasons too, Maria. Just wish the winter was shorter. Three weeks, and one snowstorm, is about right!
I want spring to come right after Christmas
Or a few days after New Year.
oooops for got New Year.
I stopped staying up that late years ago.
Now I only resent the holiday because there is no mail.
River Birch
Love Hate relationship, sheds all the time, planted next to garage,we track stuff in all year round.
The picture
I have a pure hate relationship with birch - I'm terribly allergic. Scored a 0 when we lived in DC, and now in Vermont it is off the charts. And now I have to stay away from certain foods. Grrrr.
Yours is an awesome looking tree though. It has a nice shape.
Its beauty is whet keeps it from being fire wood.
lol
Sometimes, life's a birch.
Victor, lots of beauties have been cut down when least expected
heehee Victor
chuckling to myself.
Speaking of Birch Victor......
I like this shot, but it made me feel so small when I was taking it.
a few more.
