2019 D - Fall is Calling
Autumn rainbow
D298-2019
The power outage Saturday night-Sunday morning put me seriously behind schedule in my photo processing, so I'm offering up another general fall shot, rather than rush out a Fall Color Primer poster for sugar maples. Those trees deserve my best efforts.
Cemeteries offer a park-like setting in which trees such as these can reach their full potential, both in terms of size and shape, but in terms of fall color, where at least large portions of their foliage get generous amounts of sunshine. Also, it's easy to walk around and view the trees from all angles, and find the best light for showing them off.
From left to right (front to back):
1) dark red, white oak (Quercus alba)
2) mixed yellow/orange/red, sugar maple (Acer saccharum)
3) mixed green/yellow, unidentified maple, possibly Norway maple (A. platanoides)
5) yellow, sugar maple
6) light reddish brown, towering up behind the latter two maple trees, Northern pin oak
Midland Cemetery, Midland, Michigan

Today is another day when I'll be away from home most of the day, and will leave comments this evening, once I'm back.

on October 28, 2019Gorgeous! Our leaves are turning slowly but surely, but when I was in Memphis and the North Mississippi area today, the leaves have just about reached their peak!

on October 28, 2019Wow! this is such an incredible image. The colors are stunning, and indeed for a nature's rainbow of leaves. You best efforts are fabulous and these trees are amazingly beautiful. Cemeteries are often so beautiful, but always give me a sense of peace whether they have trees or not. I wish I could give you 10 stars for this image!

on October 28, 2019Beautiful autumn rainbow--what a glorious fall you seem to be having! Unlike Judy H with her cold weather, most of last week our temps were high 80's to low 90's, with our warm SantaAna inland winds--with humidity in single digits, plus wind, it is wildfire season for sure! We'll be lucky if we get any fall color by December, at this rate...
