A Sneak Peek at Peak

IMG 5316
Monksville Reservoir, Wednesday

I’ve been busy! This time of year I have to keep up with the leaves falling or I get into trouble. I did one half the front yard on Monday and it took me so long (emptying the bags after every swipe) I only did the one side. I’ve spent the last three+ hours doing all the yards!

I’ve also managed to spend some time out with the camera as you can see by the shot above that I took at Monksville Reservoir on Wednesday. It’s peak season! I did not alter that shot at all. It’s just as it came out of the camera. Do I need to tell you the colors are beautiful this year?

I was out again this morning when it was misty and moody as the sun rose above the trees.

I love this time of year! Well, except picking up all of those beautiful leaves…

Wow, what a beautiful pic! The leaves look gorgeous and I like how you captured the rower in action. In a couple more weeks, I too will be raking the leaves!

Thanks Bigsis. I didn’t see your comment before I talked to you this afternoon. Somehow comments have been ending up in my junk mail. :(

Beautiful! Makes me miss those colorful woodlands in North America!

Gorgeous!  The tree in my yard is just starting to turn so it will be another week or two before I’ll be out picking up leaves too.
