Faded Glory

Fantastic colour on those trees..

Lovely colours and the bark on the trees as well.

loved this blog, both the beautiful photos and also the sentiments.
Spring will be here before we know it,
I don't mind the winter weather I just HATE the dark nights

Wonderful colours on the trees and patterns on the bark

I think the beauty of autumn and winter is more subtle. Not bright and in-your-face like the summer. I preffer it.

Also I like being older and wiser instead of young and inexperienced. :o)
I liked your blog and photos. Thank you.

Wow the colours of those trees are stunning.

Thank you everyone! I love the fall too, with all it's changing beauty. I like the fresh snowfalls of winter, but getting around is so much harder - i'd never want to be without it but a nice little 2 month season would be perfect, lol!
Hywel, I don't mind growing older, except that my body just refuses to do what I want it to do - to be who we are with the body of a seventeen year old would be nice, a tad unrealistic, but nice : o } .

Such beautiful thoughts. And the photography is beautiful as well.

here here, beautiful sentiments and stunning photos.

Loved your blog and photos, i'm not a winter person at all, and the clocks going back lastnight well, i just cant wait for spring to come round again and the light nights are back.

Quite right Grammazoo. A body that works would be a big help.
But I believe there's beauty in every season , and there's beauty in every stage of our lives. Sometimes it stares you in the face like in summer and sometimes you have to look for it. That makes it a bit more special.

At first i thought you were writing for your cat sitting in the window .Then you spoke of your camera and took all those beautiful photos to show us how colourful Autumn can be,Much better being human.........:o))

Lovely blog thanks, I love the colours at this time of year always put it down to being born in November.

Even if people are dieing to get in there, maybe you shouldn't walk in the cemetery...rather turn your feet towards the library or take the grandkids on the train through Gatineau Park (oops only till 10/18). Autumn is a very melancholy time to me, so I plant bulbs: a merry heart maketh like a good medicine.

It's ok Orgratis, I was just feeling reflective, not depressed, lol! Actually this is a beautiful cemetery sitting on top of a ridge with a lovely selection of trees, and quite a nice place to walk; it holds a few aquaintences to visit as well, sadly, but for the most part it is an enjoyable area. When I first started taking photos, one of my favourite things to shoot were statuary and very old tombstones. I just love all the history to be found in a graveyard. Parks are lovely too, and much better for the grandkids wild romping, to be sure!

I like to visit the old graveyards & read the tombstones, too. Maybe you could put together a blog of some of your photos for Halloween/Samhain? Read somewhere that the ancient Celts released the souls of all those who'd died the previous year, then celebrated beginning the new year at this time. As I lived up the road from the Victor cemetery in CO, I took time each Halloween to say some prayers of release to Godspeed any lingering ghosts (& remember my friends).

Lovely blog - the autumn colours are just beautiful.
