Colors of Autumn

Colors of autumn captured last year at the Green Belt Forest Preserve in Waukegan, Illinois. This year's autumn colors quickly passed before I was able to capture them.

Superb shot Steve, I think I'll have the same problem here, after such a long lasting and late summer the colours have only just appeared, but alas a huge storm brewing for Monday may well rip every leaf from every tree!

Nice palette of colors sandwiched between the azur of the sky and vivid green of the grass.

Wow! The color is just fabulous! We are probably at the height of our color right now. It has gotten really pretty. I hope it lasts at least a little while!

Amazing autumn colors. Beautiful color contrast and excellent composition. I wonder if winter would be gradually approaching there? By the way, I'm looking forward to seeing beautiful red leaves here soon. Have a great weekend. :)
