15. I "Slowed Down For Leaves" This Morning

Reply to Bo Zarts (Original post)

Saturday

I realized I hadn't taken any photos yet of the leaf-turning in my neck of PA, so out I went! Red maple leaves on the cusp of brown, brilliant yellow Lindens, backdrops of deep Evergreens, and just enough sun to make the three golden onion domes of an Orthodox Church shine against the lowering sky.

And one lonely but still beautiful pink rose.
