Shades of red

Happy Friday the 13th!!

Yep...I'm one of the folks who consider this a Lucky day!

Hey...my new mattress was delivered today...so how bad can it be...lol

I just wanted to share a pic my husband took the other day of the red maple tree in the front yard. Regardless of the fact that it make a mess to clean up every fall....how can you not help but to love the carpet of color that it produces!!!

Right now it is at it's prettiest, where we can watch the beautiful red tree leaving a wonderful carpet of color on the ground.

When the red is gone.....the white will certainly be sure to follow.

The colors

of fall makes me run out of the house with my camera often. This evening was just lovely as the light hit all those trees. I couldn't help but notice a big shadow cast from the trees on my side of the pond creating almost a big gliding bird image.

Seems I wasn't the only one who couldn't help but take pictures today. My neighbor was out on her kayak with her large camera taking advantage of the light and colors as well.

While standing on the dock I turned around and realized that there was a lovely bit of color behind me facing the house. The reds

are just sooo beautiful.

After taking all these lovely views, I of course took a number of single leaf shots to use to make more autumn leaf earrings!
