Fall Splendor

See the bee at lower right?







Isn't fall breathtaking? On our trip home from Olahoma, we were in awe of the vibrant colors blanketing the hills. The trees are in their autumn glory, and red sumac lines the highways. My fall flowers are bursting into bloom just now, berries on bushes and bright spiky mums in a variety of colors. This will have to be my weekend to make the scarecrows I've been planning. I already have buckets and baskets of pumpkins. I may have to take my camera for a ride, too.....

  1. I love nature pictures. In fact, I look for them specifically when making my banners for myself and other authors. This picture would be perfect for a banner ad, with the beautiful purple flowers in the background. :)

    You are an excellent photographer.

  3. Apple picking! Nearby us is Nebraska City, home of Arbor Lodge (Arbor Day) and the family home for tours and orchards (A Husband By Any Other Name), and they hold Applejack Festival each fall. The cider is to die for.

    The camera I'm using is a Sony FD Mavica.
