Autumn leaves macro

Went outside and even though the weather was cloudy, the colors of the leaves are fabulous. I love the autumn colors so much. I also love this post and am calling it my Best Post of the Week.

Japanese maple with red stems

I took this photo of a red-twig Japanese maple beginning to show fall color a few years ago on this date. As my skills improve (and do you think that the 1,359 photo blog posts and the over five years of photo blogging might have something to do with that?) I find that I can go back to images that were pretty good and with a few subtle tweaks, give me an image I love. I hope you like this one, taken on a Seattle sidewalk.

Sunlit autumn leaves

Heart-shaped leaves express how I feel about this season. The light coming through the leaves really makes me happy.

Clouds reflected

Browsing through the archives, found this image from a golf course visit with hubby at this time of year, a few years ago. He played; I photographed.

Autumn leaves, primary colors

The Renton Fall Harvest Festival yesterday was perfect weather and I enjoyed every moment of it. Glorious!

Ferry boat at dusk

This ferry-in-the-sunset photo is very similar to one I posted about three years ago, but I think it deserves a re-run. I had just gotten my new camera and hadn’t mastered all the settings (not that I’ve done so by now) and it needed a tad of adjustment, but hardly any. Those are the Olympic Mountains in the distance.

Nectarines

Those of us who love to photograph beautiful things in nature are blessed to have farmer’s markets in town. I can’t decide whether the nectarines with the speckles or the solid colors taste best. Guess I’ll just have to get both.

Bowman Bay at dusk

Bowman Bay at Deception Pass in Washington is an incredibly scenic place where you can camp right near the water. We were there last year at this time, and this photo is a companion to the one I posted from that trip here. I love this post and am calling it my Best Post of the Week.

Yellow brugmansia

This Angels Trumpet, or brugmansia, is not in my garden but I did grow one this year and I can tell you, they have a heavenly, sweet, delightful fragrance. No wonder they call them Angels Trumpets, and not just for their graceful shape!
