For Nadya...

Uploaded: October 11, 2009

Description


------
A cluster of Dogwood seeds among the brilliantly colored Autumn foliage.
-------
This tree has always been in the yard, but never has it shown this sort of seasonal exuberance. Perhaps it was the rainy summer that brought out its personality this year.

When I downloaded this image, all I could think of was Nadya's Autumn series...

Great Fall Image.
For a time of year when everything is shutting down its odd how some of the most bold colors and images are all around us.

Happy Shooting

What a wonderful surprise!! And what a gorgeous capture, Michelle! Love it. The lighting and the colors here are just totally superb! It has such a sense of transience. (What can be more transient than autumn colors? I swear, they're fading even as I sit here.) This is lovely! And what a treat that you thought of me, as well. Thanks!!! #8027413

Very nicely captured and presented Michelle. You've got a steady hand. I think you are right on target about the amount of rainfall we had this summer and it's effect on some plants and trees. #8032235
