It's that time again...

Though much of Bernheim Forest is still tending toward being green, this one small spot was exploding with color!

This is like an ink blot test with no correct answer. It's the reflection of some trees with Autumn color in a lake.

Another cell phone capture. I mowed my lawn all around this reddest of 
red leaves today. Every time I rode past it, I was taken in by its 
redness. I knew that once my work was done, I was going to have to 
photograph it with my cell phone.

"...I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save.

I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom.

Yours, very sincerely and respectfully,

A. Lincoln"

All photos were taken at the Cave Hill National Cemetery and Arboretum in Louisville, KY

A reflection in a local lake gives a "painterly" feel to this photo of some Autumn leaves.
