in honor of autumn

Since it's now officially autumn, I decided to pull out some photos I took when I was home last October. And then I decided to share them.

The film speed I used was too slow for that particular overcast, drizzling day, and I don't think these do justice to the vibrancy of color. But I'm sharing anyway.


cemetery cemetery

The entrance to the "new" (but not newest) part of the township cemetery. I just love the welcoming feel of the gate, as if by walking through the gates you'd simply be visiting with old friends. And the tree; that tree is phenomenal. I could have a whole post about that tree.
river in the rain river in the rain

A view of Rocky River. I love the way the rain speckles the river, the way the water moves and shimmers.

A view off the side of one of the roads that cuts north-south. Red maples are the most beautiful things I've ever seen. The oaks aren't too bad, either.

I recognize those places! ;-) The leaves are just starting to turn here. Beautiful maples in my backyard, and the one by the garage, are beginning to show a bit of red and yellow. I love the splendor of the colors, and hate raking up after them.

You probably recognize this (http://pics.livejournal.com/biogeekgrrl/pic/00004tst/s320x320?t=1128876162) too. ;)

Raking leaves was bad enough but I particularly hated raking up the acorns in our front yard.

Thanks! My hometown is kinda pretty, eh?

Take away the concrete and cars and everywhere is pretty. Oh, and most of the humans have to leave, too. ;)

LOL!

The nut trees - the walnuts and hickory trees in Dad's yard have gone berzerk. My walnut tree has as well, and every day (and night) I hear the damned things hitting the house. Walking in Dad's yard is like walking on ball bearings, the nuts are so thick on the ground. I hope we're not in for another horrible winter. :-(
