Foliage at the 45th (Part 5)
Red
Yellow
Orange
The colours don’t get any better than this. I’d say we have reached peak colour. Since this past weekend was Canadian Thanksgiving it couldn’t have happened at a better time. 
Some of the treetops are getting bare. Won’t be long now till they’re totally bare. Sigh.

Foliage at the 45th (Part 4)
This past week I was lucky enough to be driving through Algonquin Park. I could have stopped to admire the view at least 18 times. But the view above was one that I couldn’t pass by.
If I turned around this was the view behind me. Not so bad either. I particularly like that moose danger sign you can sorta see. But just as I was snapping this photo with my tiny Kodak, about four or five other cars pulled in behind me one after the other. Out jumped people with seriously huge telephoto lenses: Serious photographers. So me and my little pocket model sorta slunk away.
Back at home this week we had a couple sunny days. At this time of year when the sky is sunny it can be so blue it practically hurts your eyes. The fall sky is my favourite sky, absolutely! And when you look down we’re starting to get the leaf carpet.

Foliage at the 45th (Part 3)
There are so many great spots to see spectular scenery around here. This is in Huntsvile, Ontario. Those are sumac trees that you can see on the lower left.
Then a couple days later, as I was going on a grocery run, the view made me stop for a minute to just enjoy the colour.
The trees fairly glow if the sun is out. We have had rain most of this past week but so far it hasn’t knocked off too many of the leaves. Fortunately we’re not at the raking stage yet.
Colour, colour everywhere! You’d think I’d get tired of looking at leaves.
Not yet!

Foliage at the 45th (Part 2)
The leaves are shaping up nicely here this year. What a difference a week makes! Even driving around doing errands is a great excuse to view some beautiful scenery.
The weather has been dry, with warm days and cool nights. After a rainy summer this is a most welcome change!
Still lots of green left to go, so stay tuned for more colour. I love the fall!
