In just one day


This weekend the colors on the trees were almost fluorescent in the bright sun. Some hills without evergreen trees showed not a hint of green. Then the rain and wind swept in yesterday morning, (during my morning run of course) and it was like running in a blizzard of yellow and orange, as the freshly fallen leaves laid light and fluffy on the ground. Trees I photographed Sunday full of colorful leaves are now bare. Suddenly we are in the cold gray days of fall, and the bare branches show through the luminous colors of the leaves, the sun diffuse as it bounces off the low hanging clouds.
