influences



Live each season as it passes; breathe the air,
drink the drink, taste the fruit 
and resign yourself to the influence of each

This season is different than other autumns in the past. Just like your photo no matter where you look there's still lots of green leaves on the trees. What gives?

Your fall is not as advanced as ours, and the past days winds are now clearing leaves!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.

Lovely picture of fall and I love your composition! The two very colorful trees are like exclamation points! Terrific capture for the day! Happy SWF! Enjoy a great weekend!

@Andy and Gary: I am a little disappointed in our fall colours this year. This photo was taken on Monday but the recent winds have cleared a few more leaves. It is still pretty green, though.

The gold and the red stand out spectacularly against the green. A wonderful fall photo.

Love that glowing red tree among the green. The sky looks very similar to what we've been having lately.

Nice capture, behind the gloomy sky, the red and yellow flowers show up so beautiful in the photo.

Beautifully taken!

Sky Watch at my page, please come and see. Have a nice weekend!

That's a lovely photo and I'm envious of your bright red tree. We have no such color here, unless it's an imported tree. Our native trees are just yellow and golden.

The leaves are the same here in the city - just a couple of isolated red trees and that's it! Lovely shot Violet!
