I planned to mow the lawn and clean up leaves today, but instead a slow, steady, gentle rain arrived. I am delighted to be home today. I got the porch cleaned and ready for winter, but as I did so I could not help but marvel at the beauty of the leaves on such a gray day. I've always felt they are maybe even more striking when the sun is not bright. Out came my camera. It's been such a beautiful autumn, but I'm guessing the leaves will begin to fall quickly now.

They are beautiful. I agree with you about how good they look on un-sunny days.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are now curled up in a comfortable chair at that window reading a good book! I've been out and about on wet colorful leaves for several days now. It's as if they shine more when they've been cleansed.
ReplyDeleteBest,
Bonnie
What a great view!
ReplyDeleteSO Beautiful! I do know that after all the gorgeous colors, the leaves will soon be gone and just the stark branches will be left. It has been a lovely autumn.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful color still. Your rain is coming here tonight and tomorrow but it will be quite warm for November. I heard the weather gal on CTV say that when the leaves hang on the trees for a long time it means a hard winter. We'll see. It's nice to have things neat and tidy in the yard and on porches before winter settles in. I hope you have a nice weekend. Pamela
ReplyDeleteVery, very pretty photo! I love the colors of the leaves in it, you have a pretty street!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Cindy

To catch up, let me just say that is one cute boy! His eyes are mesmerizing. He looks mischievous already! lol
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fall photo. We had rain today too and the leaves are really falling. I had to run errands but wanted so badly to be curled up listening to the rain.
Have a great weekend!
Savouring the last of autumn is a nice way to spend a day.
ReplyDeleteLittlest one has the biggest saucer eyes - what a cutie!

Oh, what a beautiful view. I hope you are all snuggled inside with a nice cup of tea and a good book or that wonderful afghan pattern... enjoying the view outside. blessings ~ tanna
ReplyDeleteYour leaves are still gorgeous and what fabulous trees. Sounds like a day for soup and bread!
ReplyDeleteOh, you live in a cove, or as my Gary would say, a court. I didn't know.
ReplyDelete:)
So glad you've had some time off to recoup. And your photo is so pretty...the colors are perfect.
Podso,
ReplyDeleteI love how "Mother Nature" changes our "game plan" and gives us time to stand in awe at this , truly, wonderful world in which we live! I'll be doing "Porch Fluffing" after work today in preparation for next week's guests here On Crooked Creek!
Fondly,
Pat
It is a beautiful shot I love the smell of wet leaves in the fall. Almost spicey.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend!
