A Golden Autumn

It's hard to believe that today is only the first day of fall. It seems to have been turning gold around here for several weeks, and I don't think it's going to last much longer. The air has that crisp snap of coming snow. Fall is fleeting in these parts. We like to joke that we really only have two seasons: winter and almost winter.

Heather and I went out for a photowalk last Friday even though it was gloomy and grey, but we were rewarded with the briefest bit of sunshine. That little bit of gold totally transformed the scenery.

 

Here is my favorite image, captured on the way out of the park:

You can see the rest here.
