I know that I am not alone in loving Autumn. I feel it is by far the shortest of seasons. Maybe it is my imagination because I love it so much, but it always feels like it flies by. It seems like we finally have cooler weather, the leaves turn to bright gold and far too quickly the leaves are gone, and the short dark days of winter descend.

We don’t have brilliant red foliage, but I love all the subtle shades of gold that paint our autumn days. Most of the leaves are gone now but there is beauty in bare branches and the silence of winter.

Fall peaks really early, at least it does here in Colorado. Perhaps the mountains block enough light earlier in the day that the trees just can’t hang on later; but whatever it is, the fall colors are just done in an instant, leaving us with naked trees for essentially two full seasons/six or seven months…
I try to embrace the positives of all seasons, but autumn is a hard one to see in the rear-view mirror. It sounds like fall in Colorado and Nevada are pretty similar. 🙂
For sure, it is written in the stars above: welcome to winter 2024-25
You really know how to pick up the colors. They all pop and it is awarming feeling, despite the chill.
Thank you! Cheers to winter. 🙂
Those are really lovely colours. No wonder you like fall so much.
Thank you. Seems like you have a longer season in Scotland.
Gorgeous! The tans and golds stand in starkly beautiful contrast to the sky’s blue and the dramatic clouds!
Thanks! 🙂
Wow ~ Stunning! Our trees finally turned and it’s almost winter (lol) … Wish you a bountiful season! ❤
Thank you! A wonderful season to you as well. 🙂
I love autumn as well! I really liked your images of fall’s gold.

The autumn season is a beautiful moment of natural beauty, and these fall colours are incredible!

It’s the autumn season that makes me appreciate how fast the time flies.

Thank you so much! I agree autumn is for appreciating time. 🙂
You’re so welcome! I love the sentiment of the autumn season because the autumn colours make me smile, and I cherish the natural beauty of it all.

Autumn has always been a favorite time for me, both of the year and in the cycle of a human life. Everything has reached full maturity and uniqueness in coloring and growth. I find it more fulfilling even than the lovely but universally pale green exuberance of early spring.
I agree with you. It is a very special time.
I like too Autumn very much.Specially at the Himalayan Valley,there Autumn gives most deep feelings with its beautiful looks.💗🍁💗
