Autumn Color Week: Green

I must say this Autumn Color Week has been so fun and inspirational just after 1 day! I saw so many yellow inspirations yesterday and some of my images were picked at poppytalk, too! (Thank you!!) If you haven’t already, add your color inspired images to the flickr pool (or simply cruise over there and look around!) — today is GREEN.

Here are some images I took outside of my house, again, while walking with Maia. There’s no excuse for me; no matter how tired/sick I am, how horrible the weather is, I have to take Maia out everyday, two to three times a day (unless Randy is home), but I find most interesting and beautiful things during our walk together. I feel very blessed…

Miscanthus sinensis:

From the street in Park Slope, Brooklyn. You can see the color changing… but mostly green still as of yesterday.

A ginkgo leave I found on the street.

And here is from my kitchen… I crocheted the new pot holder for this project.

Happy Green day!

Autumn Color Week: Yellow

Jan and Earl from Poppytalk were asking and see if anyone was interested in joining them for an Autumn Color Week and so Heart Fish is participating this week, too! Rule is simple: Blog or flickr these colors each day — Monday::Yellow, Tuesday::Green, Wednesday::Orange, Thursday::Brown, Friday::Red! Come see my autumn color inspirations everyday this week here. I’d like to keep them to my original photos, but you can see everyone else’s color inspiration from the Autumn Colour Week Flickr Pool.

To start the Monday::Yellow, here are a couple shots I took in my neighborhood during a walk with Maia. The leaves are turning colors and falling, the air is cool and crisp… The Autumn moment right there. The best thing about having the four season is to actually see and feel the season changing. I think it is one of the most beautiful things that our planet earth brings to us.

Maia loves it, too. She loves the smell of the leaves…
