Saturday Snapshot is hosted by Alyce @ AT Home With Books.
Fall 2011 - This year's foliage was not as vivid as in past years, however, (2) weekends ago, I did manage to take a few pictures that seemed worth keeping. I'm feeling a bit sad as our patio furniture is put away until next year. Snow (1st snowfall) is expected sometime today :(

(2) weeks later and many leaves are now on the ground
Beautiful colors, Diane. Are you getting snow this weekend?
ReplyDeleteOhh I love fall colors! And those are especially vivid. But, yeah, the disappearance of the patio furniture is always a little sad.
ReplyDeleteIt's nice that you have the colors. We never have much. Something about our climate and the way that fall arrives. Snow already? Is it early this year?
ReplyDeleteMary, no snow yet, but we are in the target area for a hit....too early for snow:(
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love autumn colors. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLove the pink colors. Try to stay warm and have a Happy Halloween!
ReplyDeleteThat first photo looks almost springish. I agree that fall has kind of snuck up on me this year. Here's Mine
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colours, lovely to see.
ReplyDelete*Sniff* *Sigh* beautiful pics but make me so homesick. Seems too early for snow. I don't really ever remember snow before my birthday and that's next week.
ReplyDeleteI love both colorful photos, but the one with pinkish leaves is really festive looking. Thanks for sharing, and it will be sad when the leaves are gone!
ReplyDeleteHere's MY SATURDAY SNAPSHOT and
MY WEBSITE
The leaves look pink in the top photo! Just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love photos of fall foliage because we don't get any here in southern California. That top photo especially is fun with all the different colors. I keep telling myself I'll take my daughter east some fall to see the colors in all their glory!
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous! We don't get any fall where I am so I love your pictures!
ReplyDeleteIt's snowing in northern NJ so get ready! :)
ReplyDeleteToday is a perfect day for a book, roaring fire and a nap on the sofa (oh and maybe a good movie on TV).
Oh, the colors are wonderful! I love these photos!
ReplyDeleteUsually our PA foliage is outstanding but not this year. It was a big disappointment, and now of course it looks like winter - just started to snow in fact.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots. Those look pretty colorful to me!
ReplyDeleteYour potential snow made our weather news last night. Too early for that nonsense, hopefully it will only be rain.
We're getting ready for snow, too, but it seems too soon! Those are lovely foliage shots.

So pretty! I love the colors in both photos. What a difference two weeks can make!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful colors. I cannot believe you may get snow this weekend. Putting away the patio furniture is a true sign summer is over.
ReplyDeleteLovely fall foilage shot! And I believe the first shot too! On Columbus Day weekend I was in Boston and it was almost shorts weather. My son (who lives in Cambridge) tells me it is now quite nippy. They might even get snow (we've had a little this morning, but it hasn't stuck). Crazy!
ReplyDeleteOur fall is so much further behind yours still!
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous colors!
ReplyDeleteHere's mine: http://myreadersblock.blogspot.com/2011/10/saturday-snapshot-happy-halloween.html
I love the colors of the changing leaves! Ours finally decided to change (I thought for sure they were just going to rot off the tree). I need to practice taking photos of the leaves though and finding the right lighting because my leaf photos don't capture the vivid colors as I would like.
ReplyDeleteFor most of the month of October my son picked up the most beautiful leaves on the ground and made a collection.
ReplyDeleteWhen I lived in TN, I would take a longer route to work in the mornings just to enjoy the colors...we don't have that vivid of a color change in MS but I love seeing pictures :)
ReplyDeleteGreat colors, I love leaves looking like that.
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing like Autumn in New England, even if the leaves were on the "dull" side! Getting lots of snow now . . . too early!
ReplyDeleteThose sure are pretty!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colors! I cannot believe you are expecting snow already! We are having a warm and sunny day here.
ReplyDeleteWe drove out into northwestern VA today in the snow and it was wild to see it swirling around all those fall leaves!
ReplyDeleteLove your beautiful pics.
I'm sorry that you are getting banged up by snow too soon already. I hope it wasn't too disrupting.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! We don't really get autumn leaves here so it was lovely to see the colours.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous colours. We mostly get yellow leaves which turn a drab brown. We should be getting snow very soon, too.
ReplyDeleteSo, so pretty ... and delicate.
ReplyDeleteThese photos are gorgeous! I love the first one with the leaves that look almost pink...and I love how luch the leaves are in the second photo
ReplyDeleteI hope you survived the snow okay.
Love the colors...this is my favorite time of year!
ReplyDeletePretty!!
ReplyDeleteWow! Beautiful! I love the fall. We've had so much rain (and then snow) that I haven't been out with my camera in weeks.
ReplyDeleteMonday morning, post snowstorm: I hope you are safe. With no post today, I assume you have no power/internet.
ReplyDeleteStay warm!
It was more muted this year, wasn't it? And too warm. Maybe we need those cold nights to make the colors more striking. The air feels more like fall now! We didn't get the big storm up here. Just a few inches. Beautiful today with the bright sunshine on it.
ReplyDeleteHope you survived the storm! Nothing in our area, but our travels to Twin A's college for Family Weekend put us right in the path. Lots of activities cancelled, but we had fun together anyway.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures.
ReplyDeleteAnn
So pretty. Beautiful colors in both. I was sad that our patio furniture was put away too, but at lest we haven't had snow yet!
