Autumn's gone.. by maggiemae

Autumn's gone..

but I kept some of the leaves that held their colour nicely. Its the shortest day of the year here and still not cold but generally winter starts from now.

Three good things:
1. Found all my photos on the backup which had its own problems and couldn't be accessed but help from Apple solved it. 10 hours later they are about to be put back in their shelves.
2. Got access to ebooks on my MacbookAir.
3. A lovely cold ride on my bike up the bike trail with gloves on. They have two large holes but still worked.
Great shot, sick of winter already...roll on summer.

I do love autumn colours and you've portrayed them beautifully here. Fav
Our winter has definitely started, very cold! Due to be 0 degrees tonight. Good thing I'm snuggled in bed already!

Love the colors!!

Rich colours and nice composition.
Our summer has been glorious & very got this week. Panic when I think if the longest day next week as out light until 10.30 will shorten & I am only just beginning to appreciate getting out in the evenings for longer.

Cool nice processing. I listen to a Cape Cod local station that plays almost all oldies, has local news and weather. I love it.

Beautiful against this stark background. Fav.The shortest day always a milestone in the calendar for me - the last 2 weeks haven't been that cold up here either but plenty of winter left to go.

love the rich colours against the white. - FAV
The 21st June is so frustrating for me, as it means the days are already getting shorter and it feels like they shouldn't be!!!

Here's hoping your winter is mild. This is a lovely fall scene and so nice you were able to keep these looking so good even into the beginnings of winter.

What a long way I had to scroll down.........such good news re photos......you must have been relieved!
The shortest day so our longest...we have only had a bit of summer up to now, frightening how the years go by!
Golden leaves & beautifully presented......autumn & winter have their own beauty, I love the seasons, just wish our winter wasn't quite as long!

@happypat Thank you for scrolling all that way down! When I first started, it thought it daunting to add my comment to lots of others but I now realise its very special to read the comments from friends.
June 21st, 2014  
I really like them against the high-key white background. So glad you were able to recover the pictures!!
June 21st, 2014  
These are lovely Maggie, and a fav for me. They remind me that in another three or four months, I'll be taking similar pictures here.

Beautiful composition Maggie! That is interesting that the 20th is the shortest day (sunlight wise) and the 21st is the longest on this side of the big blue marble! I hope you have a mild winter! Oh fav!
