Autumn, a symphony in colours

in life •  6 years ago  (edited)

Autumn is my favourite season for the simple reason that each year I fall in love with its marvellous colours. Whenever I have some spare time I like to go out and take photos, capture nature changing clothes. Enjoying nature and the surrounding scenery is always relaxing.

A symphony of texture and pattern in colours, that's what I could say about fall. There's no greater artist than Mother Nature when it comes to display colours in all their splendour.

Texture, pattern and warm light create a mesmeric experience that draws the eye. In only couple of days the tree foliage can turn into an work of art due to its magnificent colours.

When trees and plants reveal their bare vulnerability, they remind us of their cycle of loss. It makes us think of regeneration, of spring, although at the moment it seems so far away.

Fall is the perfect time to play with your camera outdoors and experiment. It's the best time to go wild, go wide, go close, go macro!

What better subject to focus on than the vibrant saturated colours of the dying foliage or a flower?

Somewhere between the end of September and mid October the colours are the most intense.

What do you love about fall?

Greetings, dear Lyme

Really, a beautiful post about the fall. This flower, which here in Brazil is called dandelion, is very common at this time. Little did I know that by picking it up and swinging it, I was helping to pollinate it and distribute its seeds.

Thank you and good night!!!!

I always liked dandelions as they are so beautiful! Thanks for stopping by!

Autumn is the best month. It isn't too hot nor too cold and there are some amazing colours that come out.

Best weather to be outdoors ;-)

Atumn is also one of my favorites seasons too. I been wrote a lot of poetry about it. I love your photos. The colors are just beautiful.

Fall is my second.

Autumn is a great source of inspiration for poetry, I agree!

Such gorgeous photos , I to love Autumn for its glorious colors, but not so much for what follows soon after

Thank you! You mean you aren't anxious to get some snow? ;-)

Heck no as I get older I like winter less and less each year lOL

Beautiful pictures! Fall is my favorite too. Too bad here in Puerto Rico we do not have the seasonal changes, we go from scorching hot, to a little more tolerable to warm. At least I get to see these great pictures, they bring back beautiful memories.

At least you get a more bearable temperature. I used to believe that I would love to live in the tropics all year long. When I did, I missed having the seasons.

To be honest that is so beautiful to look upon, it makes my morning, autumn is my favorite season as well.

Thank you! I am glad to hear you enjoyed it!

Autumn sure does have some gorgeous colors, much of them are present in your photos and very lovely 💚

Thanks, honey! These days it looks so beautiful outside. Too bad, snow is on its way ;0(

I love how you described fall. I enjoy all season but fall has somethings about it that I just love. I love how the nature changes and prepare itself for the winter sleep. The colors are beautiful and each tree is different. A perfect natural harmony :) This time is my favorite because it's still warm and sunny. The only thing that I don't like that much are the spider webs EVERYWHERE. And I somehow happen to walk in them directly with my face :)

Your photos are beautiful and this is exactly how I see autumn. I also try to go to the forest as much as I can, but I usually don't take my camera as I enjoy just walking and absorbing the beauty. So I'm happy when I see photos of autumn here as I have none :) Oh, and I've tried to select one favorite photo, but I was not able to :) They are all so good!

Thank you for sharing and have a lovely start of the week!

Sorry to hear about you running into spider webs. I know it's not pleasant at all! When I lived in a warmer climate, it happened to me a few times and I hated it. Spiders, scorpions and other crawlers freak me out.

Wow, these are some amazing pictures! I love the changes in colour and that everything starts anew. Thanks for sharing your work. Your photographs make me want to bring out the camera

Your photographs make me want to bring out the camera

You should! Or at least the phone! Thank you!

Autumn is my favorite month!
You got some fantastic photos here! Thanks for the eye candy. ♥

Thanks! Nature gets all the credit for the eye candies ;0)

Beautiful pictures! I love the colours of autumn too!

Thank you! Autumn does magic when it comes to colours ;0)

Beautiful photos. Just wonderful.

For me, fall is when I am able to get back to 'full day' outside. In the summer you have to hide out under the AC much of the day. It's a perfect time for riding a motorcycle.

Hey lookit you! A Currie for your troubles. Very richly deserved! Congratulations!

Thank you!

I love the heat when I get to be by the water/sea/ocean, otherwise I would spend more time indoors .

Wow! This one came as a surprise! Thank you for your support! It really made my day!

Gorgeous, my friend. Love the thoughts you sprinkled in with these touching pictures. You've captured autumn perfectly.

Thank you! I was lucky to get some me time and a sunny day. It doesn't happen too often ;0)

Your photos are incredibly beautiful and definitely shows off fall's beauty in a really nice way. Nature sure is beautiful and change that comes with it is amazing as well, I love the colors.

Sadly, we don't have such seasons here. Well, just the rainy and dry season😀 but it also is great to see the change that comes with these two seasons.

Thank you! There's not much of change in between the two seasons, apart that rain stops, is it? When I lived in the tropics I used to miss fall's colours.

Well, raindrops mean some wild plants (and flowers sometimes) growing, on their own and already planted trees getting green again and when the rain stops, well, those wild plants start to shed of their leaves and probably die (that "die" was actually hard to type, dunno why. Was looking for a better word but could find. Lol!

Okay, you may see yellow leaves falling here and there but that just isn't it... Lol! Too boring...

Wowwww - amazing autumn post! There's something magical about the light, the colours, the still warm temperatures... The pinching of the eyes because the sun is lower than in summer. Gorgeous gorgeous. Very lovely post @lymepoet!

Thank you, my friend! I am flattered by your comment, because I am always fascinated by your photos ;0)

This is gorgeous!

howdy from Texas lymepoet! A symphony of color is so true! Oh my gosh these are stunning photographs. Really enjoying this post. I assume you specialize in wildlife or plant photography?

Thank you! Glad to hear you enjoyed my post. No, I am not specialized in any sort of photography. It's just a hobby that I barely have time for ;0)

thanks lymepoet, well you are very talented!

You shared some awesome colorful pictures, thanks for that! And congrats on the curie :)

Thank you! Autumn put on a wonderful show this year ;0)

Beautifully done.

Thank you! Coming from you, that's quite a compliment! ;0)
