Indian Summer



They call it Indian Summer, I call it perfection.
Whatever you call it, in the Midwest it amounts to warm days, 
vibrant color on every tree and bush,
and often - the end of autumn.


As the old saying goes, "if I could bottle this, I'd be rich".
Yep, everyone loves Indian Summer and wishes it would go on for months!


These images were all made recently...
my version of trying to "bottle" a bit of our Indian Summer
to hold and savor.


Happy creating to you.

  1. Beautiful shots of the season, Anna. I love that second one of the roots of that tree and of course the reflection of golden leaves. Indian Summer is just the best, isn't it?
    Thank you for your kind comments at my place!

    1. Thanks. Sandra! The water image was taken down at the lake and all the other images were made at Copper Falls - a gorgeous area nearby that we like to hike at :)

    1. Thanks, Nancy! Those trees are growing next to a rushing creek. I find their form very fascinating.

  4. I think this is the so called love at first sight. ;) The pictures. I love the perfectly taken shots, esp. the third one; it looks like some sort of painting. This is defined proof of how nature is substance of our works.
    Your blog is beautiful, Anna.
    Nice to meet you.
    Greetings.
