Leaves aren’t the only yellow to be seen in autumn. Here are a few others that I came across during September and October.
“It is the color closest to light. In its utmost purity it always implies the nature of brightness and has a cheerful, serene, gently stimulating character. Hence, experience teaches us that yellow makes a thoroughly warm and comforting impression. With yellow the eye rejoices, the heart expands, the spirit is cheered and we immediately feel warmed. Many people feel an inclination to laugh when looking through a yellow glass.” ~Johann von Goethe

These photos are all so pleasing to the eye Rebecca and it is nice to know you are still enjoying the colors that we here in SE Michigan usually see in Summer. I like the ducklings the best and I hope the ponds don’t freeze up or you have snow like last year until those ducklings have fledged or able to be on their own.
I love the yellow of dandelion … not only the visual but when I see a photo of dandelion I also smell the sweet perfume and taste the puff of pollen. Love your photo of the chicks!
Thanks, Jane!
