In Search of Autumn

Autumn had been quite elusive this year...  the color was slow in coming...  I went out with my camera several times...  Most of the color was found in the strip malls and business complexes...  here's a few found images..

Sunset Magazine said this trail was the place to find autumn...  so a friend and I went for a bike ride (after driving an hour to get here).  The trail was beautiful, I'll definitely go back...  but as you can see - the color green is what you see!

 

but as we came back to civilization - the color started to show up...  like this wall of ivy (the freeway is on the other side!)

 

 aaahhh...  autumn!!!  and blue skies too!!!
