After the storm

This is my backyard after the rain and wind subsided. The day before I spent over 3 hours removing the leaves from my lawn before the rain came. As you can see that was time well spent!

Ooh Kerry --what a carpet of leaves and a lovely colour --I suppose it is a pointless exercise to sweep up the leaves until they are all down !! A lovely capture and composition ! FAV

@mccarth1 Yes I do understand !! It gets you outside and keeps you fit !!

Brilliant colors in that carpet of leaves.

@beryl In theory you are right but if I don't do it in stages the total would be to heavy to blow or mulch. As you can see there's several inches down and several more yet too come down. Leave removal is part of my fall exercise plan!

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Oh my goodness — it's so beautiful! Easy for me to say since I'm not the one who gets to rake all these leaves away. You have a gorgeous yard.

[Kim]

So much work for you, but wow....beautiful!

[Gillian]

What beautiful colours! Love that wheel which I remember of other shots.

[Elizabeth]

Seems you have an entire woods in your yard! I'm envious ( but I don't have to rake the leaves).

Nature's beautiful mess! I love the autumnal colors.
