post #57
It's true, the leaves do change colors here in eastern Kentucky. Though 2011 is drier and less showy than other years, our fall is still beautiful. Today a fire warning exists due to windy gusts, dry woods, and warm temperatures!
Last week I was unable to get outside because of an ongoing renovation project at the house. So today I am sharing some images from this year and past years purely to brag on our region's natural glory at this time of year.

I took this photo ten years ago or so, with film and a tripod, and I've used it as one of the cards I sell. The title helps! Our quarter mile driveway provides access to a lot of photos, including ones of the driveway itself. Here are three of those:

Last week I did get to my neighbor's house to take a photo of her view -- they have been following the changes in the one lone red tree, on the left.
I ended up with a photo of her cat, Tom, as well. A photographer's roving eye is actually a helpful tool.... I got this moving cat's eyes and whiskers in sharp enough focus to be able to share the photo on this blog. A subject's sharp eyes always make a better picture.... However, I have to confess that it was nothing but good fortune that his white coat is right on. I only took one quick shot since raindrops were starting to fall.

One more photo today, and then some more next week's "fall-owing" post.
Happy leaves to everyone!
