It always amazes me that our trees turn from green to yellow in a matter of days.
This is looking up into the trees in our yard. I warmed the color up just a bit, because the camera just didn't seem to capture the sun-drenced yellow that was streaming through the branches. This I think, barely does it justice.
* colour-I wanted to use this spelling, because in this case I felt "color" just fell flat from the richness of hues I was trying to express.
Wow! Your street is just gorgeous. I love the fall. Thank you for posting your beautiful pictures. The single maple leaf is very pretty. Is that one from your tree?
ReplyDeleteI forgot to say, I am so sorry you have been sick. Did you all get it? That sounds awful.
ReplyDeleteThanks Erin, Yes, the leaf is from one of our two Maple trees by the side of our house. We've all had the sickies spanning a time period of about 2-3 weeks. I'm hoping this means we're done for the season,
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I'm so sorry you guys got IT. Yuck and no fun! I hope you all get over it quickly and have good hearty immune systems for the rest of the winter. Second, thanks so much for sharing your beautiful fall with me! You got some amazing pictures. You're so talented. We have a lot of trees here but they don't really change color. I hear the leaves will just kind of die and fall off as a yucky brown leaf. I miss the beautiful colours of Iowa fall. (I love the way you write and your attention to detail - colour instead of color - nice touch!)
ReplyDeleteIn other news, I may be visiting Iowa next month! I'll let you know for sure if I make it and we'll definitely have to get together. Take care I miss you tons! Hope to see you soon!
