Just a quick post for today. I just wanted to share some of my photos of the fall foliage here in northern Virginia. I took these a week or so ago just as the colors had reached their peak – breathtaking. Alas, most of the leaves have blown away now and many of the trees are bare but what a feast for the eyes while it lasted.
The sunsets this time of year simply take my breathe away.
I just love taking pictures at the ‘golden hour’. Everything glows – even these horses! 
Does anyone know what species of bird this is? I’m thinking it is a kestrel but I really have no idea I’m just happy that I was able to get a photo of it.
Wishing you all a wonderful week ahead!

ReplyDeleteA red shouldered hawk - VERY BAD BIRD!
ReplyDeleteWow - these photos are awe-inspiring Anji. The golden on the horses - the wisps of cloud and those brilliant fall colors. AND, you caught the hawk so well!
ReplyDeleteOh that's gorgeous! We are already at barren trees here!
ReplyDeleteVery nice color capture --- does that make me sound like a photographer? Love the bad bird!

Breathtaking indeed Anji! Fall is one of my favourite seasons (followed closely by spring). I just LOVE the brilliant colour palettes of nature during these times. These photos are heavenly!
ReplyDeleteAnji... Are you sure you don't live in HEAVEN???? Wow! I can assure you -- there is NOTHING even close that gorgeous here in Florida! Just soooo stunning. You are so lucky to have the change of seasons up there! Enjoy! :)
