It was differently colored than in previous years, perhaps because I was a bit earlier than usual. But it's a good thing I didn't wait because we had a hard wind and rain storm the next day, causing many leaves to fall:
And the colors did not disappoint:
All along the road were reds, yellows and greens:
Autumn color in full array:
And the trunks of birch trees added punctuation to the color:
Massive old maples leaned over the road and seemed to smile with their vibrant colors:
In other places, the reds were so vivid as to remind me of fireworks:
As I neared the end of the road, it became shadier, with more dignified colors:
Yellow on one side of the road, green on the other:
And then a surprise explosion of color in a pasture:
More reds and oranges:
Sheldon Road has little traffic and few residents. It's a peaceful place for such beauty:
Old rock walls bordered the road in many places:
Golden orange along both sides of the road. I'm sure glad I live among such beauty:
Wow, gorgeous! It's just a shame it is over so fast.
ReplyDeleteThanks. In this case the beauty was mostly gone the very next day, thanks to a big storm.
