I love autumn and the autumn skies,
Especially the fireworks autumn puts on in the early mornings.
I’m invigorated by the sky’s soft blush,
The flamboyant colours of the leaves,
The dramatic harmony of sky and trees and water.
George Eliot put it so well when she wrote,
“Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.”
For more deliciousness, please visit: Skywatch.
Unbelievable! I could dwell in autumn seasons like yours – The colours are so beautiful and the calm of the water brings peace to mind and heart. How much inspiration you can get there I am sure – a pleasure for the eyes.

Autumn leaves are so beautiful and perhaps more so because you know that soon they will whither on the branch and fall to the ground. It is a fleeting beauty… so glad you captured it!

Hi there – our autumns are much less about colour than “up north” – more to do with a change of temperature and a shift in day length. I miss colours like this. But then again – I suppose I have skies like my post. Swings and roundabouts!

Gorgeous. I love autumn, too. So far, here in central California, we’ve had an unusually warm October, but our first real chill hit last night and brought with it some needed rain. Soon the golden hillsides will be emerald green. I can’t be to capture beauty the way you do, but I will make a feeble attempt.
