Autumn Colors In My Back Yard

Last Sunday while out enjoying my backyard, I took photos of the all the different autumn colors. Above and below are photos of one of my Magnolia trees.

It was late in the afternoon when I took these photos and the sun was shining just right, which made the colors of the leaves even prettier.

Above are my summer sweet bushes, along with my magnolias and service berry trees.
Three seasons out of the year my service berry trees are real show stoppers. Early in the year they have profuse white blossoms. In the middle of summer they get dark red berries that are delicious and healthy to snack on. Then in October the colors are so beautiful, with the leaves ranging from blazing red, to bright orange. I'm fortunate enough to have three of these trees in my back yard
.
Above is a view of the corn field and the end of my property. It's so peaceful and pretty sitting out back on warm autumn days. I thought it best to capture the fall display on camera now, because soon enough winter will be rolling in and the trees will no longer have their beautiful color palate.

    Those pictures are really beautiful!
    Thanks for sharing these awesome images.
    There is something very interesting in this post. Did you notice how you talked about ownership through this post?
    Let me summarize those points of ownership:
    -"Enjoying MY backyard"
    -"Photos of one of MY Magnoila trees"
    -"MY summer sweet bushes along with MY magnolias"
    -MY service berry trees"
    -"I'm fortunate enough TO HAVE"
    -"The end of MY PROPERTY"
    Very interesting, don't you think so?
    All the best.

  2. Hello Boris,
    Thank you for visiting my blog. Welcome!!!!!!
    I'm happy you like the photos.
    I never thought the ownership part until you just metioned it here. Very interesting point!
    I'll have to look into this a bit deeper as there may be a hidden reason behind this.
    Wishing you a wonderful weekend!!!!!!!!
