Autumnal Equinox

Today is the Autumnal Equinox, the start of my favorite half of the year - Fall and Winter. My favorite things symbolize this time - Earth colors, falling leaves, fires, candles, and then snow (oh yeah, and pumpkin ale, too!). Today was a singleton day off for me and thus an errands day, but I managed to get some early Autumn shots while out running said errands. Enjoy!

  1. Beautiful! I love how you know all the names of the plant life...I am very ignorant in that area.

  2. I always love to see the moon in the daytime, but I don't recall ever seeing a photo of it! Thanks.

  3. I agree with you Roy, Autumn is my favourite season. It must be a photographers' thing. There is such richness in those shots of yours.
