I sure know what you mean! I had a fall like that a few years ago. I think I took hundreds of LEAF pictures. The light, the colors, the contrasts . . . it's all breathtaking!
Me either, they are irresistible and I am enjoying the screensaver I have of all my October captures. I'm going to really love these pictures in the long cold winter. Yours are lovely, keep snapping and please keep sharing.
They really are lovely, Vicki. That is something we just don't get in my part of Texas (Dallas). Occasionally a Bartlett pear tree or a lone maple will glow for a day or two, but mostly, we have Live Oaks that don't ever change or others that get so darn sick of the heat they finally turn brown and fall off out of sheer wearniess. Two weeks ago, we vacationed in NE New Mexico and I think I enjoyed the golden Aspens and Cottonwoods almost as I enjoyed the mountains. Keep on, keep on, Vicki.

I'm the author of The Elizabeth Goodweather Appalachian Mysteries from Bantam Dell. The series includes SIGNS IN THE BLOOD (LA MONTAGNE DES SECRETS in France), ART'S BLOOD, (LE SECRET DES APPALACHES in France,) OLD WOUNDS,IN A DARK SEASON (Anthony Nominee, Best PBO), and UNDER THE SKIN. There's also THE DAY OF SMALL THINGS (a spinoff/standalone)chronicling the unexpected life story of Miss Birdie, one of Elizabeth's neighbors.
I came to this weird business late (my first novel was published in 2005) and am still trying to figure it out.
As my novels are set in a place much like my real life home, I thought I'd use this blog to share pictures of our farm and county. I've been blogging for over five years now, on an almost daily basis, and the topics have ranged from writing, chickens, food, books, quilts, flora and fauna of all sorts, to the occasional tiny rant. There's no plan, but there are lots of pictures.

They are incredibly beautiful, Vicki, so carry on to your heart's content!
I can see how they're hard to resist.
Oh, no... some of your leaves are missing! You was robbed. I'll bet you have pictures of the evidence!
You are just my kind of leaf person!
I know what you mean, Autumn puts me under her spell every year.
Beautiful photos!
Don't stop: it's s a real pleasure for us!

I forced myself to sit and look at the sky last night and not run inside for my camera. I can still see the beauty this morning.
Love the leaves!

Don't stop because when all the leaves are gone you could always paint them.
