I had to take these pictures in the rain, since the peak of the tree's autumn color came the same day as a Nor'easter that will soon blow every one of those leaves off. And I assure you that color is untouched...except by God.
...for more Wordless Wednesday, check these out.
Beautiful. I love Japanese maples.
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful to have so much color during an otherwise somewhat dreary time of year. Happy WW

ReplyDeleteBandit, what do I win for "cheating"?
ReplyDeleteand you know that tree...it is in my front yard. most of the year the leaves are sort of a plum color...but for a week or two in the fall it is RED!
Love the color. Beautiful -- I especially like the second shot.

ReplyDeleteSuch wonderful color! It's a shame it doesn't last longer. Great shots!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI thought that nor'easter we had, with terrible rain and winds up to 70 mph would have knocked those leaves all off but actually the tree is just starting to lose them now. it is pretty, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteah yes, now i know it!
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful. We have one in our yard and just the other day I was out taking pictures.... such lovely colors!
