SW Brockman Street

 

I notice now that every year you can't expect the same colors turning, too many things affected the leaves, global warming, dry summer, spring rain etc.

Mostly Red - Walker Road

 I spotted this place a few days ago, but it was so sunny, tomorrow is going to rain hard for two days, so I am on the race with the weather. I am glad that I came this morning.

Halloween 2023

 

This morning was dark with low hanging fog, as well as cloudy, perfect to hunt for ghosts and goblins, I drove a short distance from home to find this "cemetery".

Osprey Drive

 Fall colors differ from year to year, last year the colors were not vibrant, two years ago at the same date, the colors are at its peak. This year I came before the rain comes in the next hour or so. The fact that the greens are still there, it makes the colors transition good and has a lot of orange colors.

This year I was pretty lucky to photograph this YELLOW, fall colors are certainly different from year to year. This YELLOW is so spectacular.
