I waited for a sunny day, and went out a couple of hours before sunset—of course, that made it the middle of the afternoon :-(

Down South we don’t get the really brilliant fall colors. Many trees stay green all winter and do not shed until spring brings new leaves. Good job.

But you have other advantages, such as warm winters ;-)

…and summers so hot they are unbelievable. When I shoot Gay Pride in June I last about 2 hours in the heat.

Well, yes, there is that… So maybe the best of both worlds is to migrate south for the winters and north for the summers, like birds (and some humans!) do..

You have captured pure beauty. The colors of autumn are long gone here. Your photos add some warmth on this winter day.

Here in NYC, Fall colors will be with us for some time yet, in places… although most trees are rapidly losing their leaves, here too…
