~Autumns Beauty~

We had a beautiful day here in NY,  the temps were in the sixties! So after my son's baseball game I decided to take a little walk around our development, camera in hand of course!  Our foliage wasn't the best this year due to all the rain we had last month. The colors are usually so bright and vibrant, but I did manage to get in a few pretty shots. These were all softened in Picnik.




Standing in my front yard looking across the street at my neighbors.





This one I was standing in my driveway looking at the neighbor to the left of me.


 Hope you all had a wonderful weekend filled with sunshine!

    I was just noticing the leaves around our home have really gotten more colorful too. Hard to believe that,soon, they will be gone. My husband said he wants to wait until after the leaves stop falling to put out fresh pinestraw. I hate that our yard will then be brown while we put out brown straw too. ha! Oh well. It needs to get done before the winter months. I'm sure you really savor this time of year before it gets so cold where you live. Your Fall pics are very pretty.

    Your photos are so beautiful. I have to say that I will miss the fall leaves back in pa and now in south Carolina.

    Gorgeous pics, Martina! I'm envious of your views ... we don't have the lush Fall colors here in Myrtle, and I truly miss it. Thanks so much for sharing ... those pics would be fabulous Fall wall art!

    Beautiful color, Martina!

    We don't have much here in NE MO. So happy we spent time at the lake. Even though it is only a couple of hours south the color was so much better than here at home, this year.

    Ours wasn't the best either Martina but ours was from the wind we had, just tore off the leaves before they could finish turning! Yours are beautiful, love the picture with the road in it!

    these are so pretty, I have to say that when we went back east for the fall folige we loved upstate NY as much as Vermont, who knows maybe we were in your neck of the woods?

    Gorgeous photos Martina! We have had very little pretty foliage this year. I think the 100+ temps we had all summer just took it out of them! lol I know how they feel!
