Autumn is here . . . even if today is 88 F! The ginkgo leaves are changing from green to gold and orange.

SoCal in Autumn
Even though many parts of SoCal are a deadly brown, many of the plants are imported from areas of the Mediterranean, and many are evergreen. With a few judicious choices, even the desert we are becoming can have the green of other parts of the world.
Trees & Fog
Another picture from my excursion into a damp and foggy world (a rarity of late here in SoCal where temperatures have been heinously high). This time, a panorama of about 9 images, cropped and edited a bit. I used the Df and 24-85 lens.
That morning, the fog was very thick, and even around 9:30 a.m. when I took this, the fog was dense. Only later did the sun break through. It was rather eerie to wander alone . . . just a few days from Halloween!
Retreat
It’s Autumn, cold and chill this week after temps in the 100s F. Ugh. The damp and fog are very welcome. As far as which fits the season of Halloween best, what do you think? Color or B&W?
Iris
I’ve been busy writing lately and haven’t had much time to look at the world around me. When I do look, I look at plants and the sky – the natural world. Suburbs don’t have much to offer in the sense of drama and awe – it is the little things that must suffice. And suffice they do, whether in the local botanical gardens or the vistas of the open spaces. This is another image from my trip a week or so ago to the local garden, using the Nikon Df an the Tamron 70-300mm. Early morning light and shadows made for some beautiful photos.
