I'll take what I can get.

I miss New England foliage.  We get changing colors here in California and they are pretty but they make me homesick.  I want to take an easy hike up Mt. Douglas and look out over the changing landscape.  Around here most of the deciduous trees are planted in people's yards.  So, we see more Autumn colors on our drive to school than we do on our hikes in the hills.

I'm not complaining.  I'll take it.





I'll admit to using some color filters when taking these pictures. Do they hold a candle to Maine's fall foliage--no. But they bring a smile to my face and make me grateful for the changing seasons.
