Colors of Fall

Hmmmm...I still have about 30 days to go....

Still had a average daytime at 87 degrees last week. My trees don't start turning untill around the first week in Dec.

Drats....
 
No worries Al, it just means we all get to enjoy fall that much longer!

I took a few fun shots of a couple Japanese Maples this evening.

Dan,

Are you a photographer? You take really good pictures! :cool:

Love the colors, thanks for sharing since I see (somewhat like) those once in a blue moon here in TX. I believe once the past 20 years. :(
 
Thanks Dario, I'm no professional or anything. I just enjoy photography.:)

I have done some photo's for my wife's work though... You can see them here if you're interested: www.mullinnixandco.com

I envy the length of your growing season!
 
Trees here are just starting to show some fall color...if weather holds, things may be pretty good in a couple weeks.

Looking good Brian. :)

First up is some color from a collected Siberian Elm'



And color on a Zelkova. I would love to create a forest of these someday with a mixture that has fall color range from red to yellow and orange!

 
My maples are still coloring up this year. Not quite peak time yet for me and hopefully I'll get some nice colors. Here are some older pics of a Japanese maple forest.

Every year different trees turn with different intensity. It always seems like a mystery.
 
Beautiful forests! I have a hedge maple forest that's just starting to turn yellow. I don't know how good the color will be but I'm hopeful. :)
 
This Zelkova forest has inspired me from the first time I saw it.

I like forests like this, all the same species yet with varying autumn colors. Gonna try to get one going for myself.

MACH5, is that a particular cultivar or just a forest of seedling grown maples? Fantastic colors!

Love the new pot color. Awesome!
 
You guys and gals are making me jealous. No real signs that fall has made it down to Florida yet. Though we are starting to get some nighttime lows in the 50s. Thanks for all the excellent photos!
