Leaving Autumn Behind

Leaving Autumn Behind - fall leaves along the side of the road in Stayton Oregon

Since winter is almost officially upon us, I thought I'd throw out one last photo of some autumn leaves. I spotted these alongside a street, and felt a metaphor for the passing of one season to the next swelling within me. Thankfully it passed before it was fully formed in my head. I think that much thinking would have made my brain explode.

If you're so inclined, check out my other autumn-related photos posted here from taken this year and last fall. You can also check out my autumn photoset on Zooomr. It has a lot more I didn't post here.

Love the colors and even the asphalt rocks look neet!

I like nature photography and have taken hundreds of autumn pictures mostly in Arizona and Oregon. But they mostly remain fallow on my hard drive. Not once have I captured what I saw when I was there and I am not inspired to process them. It is a major disappointment to me.

I reviewed some of your autumn images that you recommended. Some favorites in no particular order:
Firm in my Be-Leaf
Autumn Casualty
Scattered
Wet Leaves on Pavement

I also like the scarecrow one for photographic reasons even though that is not 'nature'.

I took these pictures I took on Chemeketa Street on the capitol mall but I they really failed to capture what I saw that day. I had high hopes. That kinda bums me out. :(

Thanks, nutstang. :)

Steve, thanks for going through the images. As for your taking photos in Oregon, wasn't a certain someone supposed to call another certain someone when that first someone was in Oregon? Hmmmmm?

I don't know what your problem is with your photos, as I think they're beautiful. I especially like CRW_2651w.jpg.

And a Canon 10D? I'm officially jealous.

A certain someone that is in Oregon sent an email to another certain someone but have not heard back. :)
