Oh the Fallness of it All

All these shots from October 22, 2009. A few days before peak fall color in my neck of the woods.

Nine Days Later

A big wind on the 30th undressed her.

Ruby in Leaves

The maples along the entrance allee at Cavehill Cemetery provided this place for miss Ruby to play. I love that a place dedicated to death can bring such life to our lives.

And incidentally...nobody prunes these.

Nekkid Gingko

I wasn't there to witness it this year but the gingko leaves fell. She's nekkid and ready to bed down for the winter now. I'll try and keep you posted as she wakes up and gets dressed in spring.

The top photo was taken on October 29th and the bottom photo was taken on November 21st for those of you keeping track of seasonal changes. (Like Ketti for example.) Gives you an idea of the color shift that happens.

Waiting for the Fall

The gingkos at Bernheim on 11-7-08.

Soft In

Fall is moving in with stealth this year. Quiet. Hidden behind campaign rhetoric and economic collapse it cares less.
