"Come said the wind to
the leaves one day,
Come o'er the meadows
and we will play.
Put on your dresses
scarlet and gold,
For summer is gone
and the days grow cold."
(A Childrens' Song of the 1880's)
"A tangerine and russet cascade
Of kaleidoscopic leaves
Creates a tapestry of autumn magic
Upon the emerald carpet of fading summer."
(Judith A. Lindberg, Shades of Autumn)

Those fall colors are so pretty,Unfortunately we had very strong winds today,so many leaves came down.
what a lovely season you have captured, Rick...full of color and promise! beautiful work!
Fall is so beautiful and you sure captured and edited some beauties.
Were fogged in and have been for a few days. Its nice to kick back and relax.
The colours are great, I like the peaceful feeling on the last shot. :)
The colors in this series are excellent. I am trying to savor this season as it is my favorite.
These are nice bright photos. The children's song paints a good picture. Our leaves here in the Mid-Ohio Valley are just turning.

Wow, Wow, and Wow! What an amazing series Rick, you've really outdone yourself. I sure hope you start to sell your work one day, I'll be first in line, well once I'm done being a student and can afford to buy things again... things other than a new furnace, shingles, hot water tank, wood, etc! lol
I love these, serene with a dash of surrealism. Like Wonderland.
Really great captures, Rick.
Very nice autumn photos Rick!!!

In Greece we have still summer.
Wheather for swimming.

Ah, Fall. Such a beautiful season that seems to go by much too quickly. Good to see fall up in your neck of the woods. I'm not quite ready for winter yet! Hope you are well, Rick!

Real cute pony, but from start to finish this post is so full of Nature Rick, colourful Autumn.

Very nicely done Rick. Gives one that "Peaceful, Easy Feeling"! Hey isn't that a song? John Denver or somebody? Have a great weekend.
