After a very long and difficult month I was finally able to get out with my camera once again, but I'm afraid the spectacular fall colors have mostly passed thanks in part to Mother Nature's sick sense of humor. No fair hitting us with snow 2 days before Halloween!
None the less, I braved the chilly temperatures and went for a walk to see what color was left and found that Mother Nature had been painting a different picture.

That frost-tinged red leaf is beautiful.
Boanerges: Thank you, its good to be back.
I'm hoping the road ahead is much smoother. Take care.
Love and best wishes.
Cathy: Yes, the seasons are changing (a bit faster than I would like) but you can't fight Mother Nature or Father Time. Thanks for stopping by.
Alysa: You are very welcome!
Scarlett: So glad you like it.
Annie: Thanks for commenting, I don't envy you. If this is a sign of things to come, we're all in for a long winter.
I'm also guessing that you took many, many more pictures. I'm impressed by your restraint in limiting those shown to these. But, then, each of these is a masterpiece.
