Early Autumn Around Our Town
The View From Here 10–26–26
The morning began with a burst of sunshine through the evergreens on the east side of our house. We didn’t have anything on the agenda for the day, so we decided to embrace the opportunity to take a ride around town and soak in the magnificent colours of the changing season.
This vibrant red beauty adorns a local fire hall lawn and is one of our favourite places to visit each year.
Right beside the stunning red is a golden-yellow deciduous tree. This one is already losing its leaves to the recent strong winds passing across Lake Ontario.
The sun kept playing hide-and-seek behind the hurrying autumn clouds. But here, beside the doorway of a favourite diner, the sun was so bright I couldn’t see the image in the camera frame. I wasn’t sure if I’d caught this cute Halloween vignette. I was pleasantly surprised with the result.
I love the scarecrow’s cute smile as he welcomes everyone to stop by.
