Falls Fleeting Fire

Autumn is ablaze, in all its glory!






















Except for the fourth image...all fiery photos were taken today. We still have not had a deep frost and are enjoying warm days. Days to go outside and absorb as much beauty and color as we can, as it will not last much longer. The ephemeral foliage makes me anxious and sad. One season ending, coming to a close. Gardening slowing down which leaves me much more time for my art......


and facing the blank canvas.

Great Fall color - Thanks for sharing. I had hoped to got out and look for more Fall colors the last couple of days to photograph, but other things going on.
Hope you are having a great week.

Love the pics! You take the most gorgeous pictures. Love the barn!
We have had sooo much rain today there's probably not ANY leaves left here!

Erin we must be on the same brainwave I was looking around at all the red maples on my drive to work thinking I wonder if I'm bold enough to stop in some strangers yard and take a picture of the their maples. I wasn't!!! I'm glad I got my fix here! We've had a light frost and many of the leaves have fallen now. We were watching the last few fall today.....looked sad but somehow so romantic floating to the ground.
The barn is wonderful and the way you captured the fence is poetry!
I'm just about to go home so now I can have your images to ponder on my drive back.
Good night!

I have been to your part of the world many times, but never when all these trees were so pretty. I have never seen such lovely reds, and you really did great on taking the pictures. Lovely, lovely post.

Your photos are so beautiful! We have very few colorful leaves left here in Kansas. I love fall and it's brilliant colors. Thanks for sharing.
