Autumn colors


My hobbies include photography and painting so I always have a camera with me. Everything that catches my eye is fair game - a perfect photo is really not necessary for what I'm trying to capture, although it's great to get home and find that special 'snap' in the mix.

Autumn is in the air and I have to bundle up to take the dogs for a walk. Crispy leaves and fresh spicy breezes make this time of year my favorite. I carry a camera everywhere and have been known to make a spectacle of myself while snapping photos of just about anything. I have eclectic taste and often am just thinking of a painting reference so sometimes it's just the way the light hits something or maybe a certain color that appeals to me. That was the case as the setting sun lit these wonderful birch trunks, but I'm pretty sure everyone driving by thought I was nuts taking this photo in the middle of a busy parking lot!
