AUTUMN LEAVES, INSTALLMENT V: It finally feels like fall in the north Georgia mountains, and it's finally beginning to look like it too. Here's the view from the deck:

Not a whole lot of difference from last week. The picture is brigher because the early morning fog is not around during late afternoon. Here's the fire pit:

Again, not a whole lot of obvious change, although you can see more brown in the background - and much more yard debris. Now, looking at the house from down the pond path:

The house itself (left center) is getting a bit more visible. Because the picture is darker, the browns are not a visible as they really are. The house will become more visible when (if) the leaves drop.

The pond is beginning to show real change, finally. I'd like to see last year's colors, but it seems to be green-then-drop this year.

This week I used the telephoto lens; you can now begin to see the stair rail leading up to the house. As with the pond view, the leaves seem to have adopted a green-then-drop philosophy.

And this week, an extra:

This is similar to the pond view above, but because I'm in the shade with the sun more-or-less behind my back the colors are much better.

Last week's pictures are here.
