sunday selections – autumn colours (more photos added)
Posted On 17 April 2011
Juniordwarf and I went for a walk yesterday afternoon. It was a beautiful autumn afternoon, after the normal early morning fog. Once that cleared, it was a glorious day, perfect for getting out of the house and taking photos.
These photos are edited in my favourite iPhone app at the moment, Camera+. I think I probably need to take a break from it for a while as there are so many other apps on my phone that I haven’t used very much and I need to add some more effects to my photo albums.
So these are this week’s photos for Frogpondsrock’s Sunday Selections project. If you get a chance, go over to Kim’s blog and check out some of the other bloggers who are playing along.

| My take on the ‘sun through autumn leaves’ idea |

Autumn leaves – not many now, but in a couple of weeks
the ground will be covered |
Update
Here are some more photos on a similar theme from today’s adventures

Autumn leaves are so stunning 🙂 Thank you for sharing them.
Oh 🙁 Never mind! I think I said what great photos they are & what a beautiful place Venice is. There was one near the bottom that was a closeup of a building that I especially liked. I went there many years ago & the gondola ride was a highlight!
Oops, sorry I accidentally deleted your comment on my Sunday Selections and now I can't get it back 🙁
Thank you 🙂 I never know whether to just post the pics as they are taken or tweak them a bit. I really love the effects some of the photo apps can give to photos that are shot in not the best conditions – eg most of these were taken in the middle of the day/early afternoon, when the light is very intense, so they can get quite washed out. I like putting some of the colour back 🙂
So, so beautiful. There is something magical about Autumnal colour. Thank you.
The colours in these photos are so intense!! Beautiful!
Thank you everyone, I'm glad you like my photos 🙂 They really don't do the colours justice though, it all looks spectacular.@River, there's this tree at the end of our street that has green-yellow-red leaves, it looks like a traffic light. I tried to take a picture but it didn't really show what I was trying to show, so I didn't post it.@amandab, there are so many cool apps. I have to stop getting them and just work out how to use the ones I have! But I keep seeing beautiful images people have edited with a particular app & then I have to have it too LOL
You get the BEST autumn leaves where you are.
Getting a lot of red leaves here in Adelaide too. The manchurian pears lining the streets are two toned, red on top, green below. I have one in my front yard.Your sun through the autumn leaves is magnificent!
beautiful images.
All very beautiful images – Autumn really is a pretty time of the year and you've captured the essence of it in your photos 🙂
wow these are beautiful. The trees around here haven't changed yet.
Red leaf fan here too 🙂 And I love reflection shots.When I see some of the apps available I sometimes want an iphone. Will have to spend some time to see what is available for android. So jealous! 😛
Wow, Autumn in Tassie is beautiful. I love the postcard perfect first photo.
I love the red leaves as well. The Derwnent river uop your way is very beautiful. We occassionally go trout fishing near the boat ramp there 🙂
