Brittle yellow leaves,
still bright in their regalia,
will fade, fade away.

You are going to think I’m a complete ninny. I went to your other blog and commented. I thought I had seen those pics before, but I thought you did something different to them. LOL! Oy! Okay, I like the solarized one on today’s post. The colors are so neat in that.
Happy Blue Monday(and it’s definitely Monday, LOL!)…
XO,

Glad you are feeling better. I especially like accented edges and palette knife!

You are right about us never really thing of foliage colors in SoCal. It seem to us Northerners that earth tone colors and leaves require cold and a lack of sun. You prove otherwise! Nice trees in the LA basin…

What a treat to find fall colors. I love the one with the accented edges, it looks like a painting.

Beautiful colors of fall. I always love how you put your mosaics together too. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving! ~Jeanne

Is there any way you could email me a copy of a single shot for this week’s Color Carnival? I think the bottom, middle center shot would look great and would show up much better than using a collage for the featured photos. Thanks! Hope you are all better now. Have a Happy Thanksgiving! 🙂

Congrats on one year of posting. It goes fast doesn’t it? I wanted to thank you for your visits and comments. I have been so busy I am just now getting to my PS visitors. I do love your photos and the mosaics. I want to learn how to do that.
Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Hugs, Jeanne

Great colors on these photos, do the trees still look like this, or have the leaves fallen?
