Seeing Beauty Everywhere

With snow on the ground here and the temperatures sitting around −15C/5F,fall is a memory.Thankfully I have a some pictures to help relive that memory.

All of today's pictures were taken on my yard.

You will also notice that I have added a Watermark,in hopes of making it  harder for anyone wishing to steal my images.

This shows a few leaves from the Amur Maples on my yard.

In wandering around the yard looking for photos,I saw the Peony leaves and noticed how pretty they looked.

The rest of the pictures all show the varied faces of the Amur Maples. I love how they light up with the sun.

Spotting a lone red leaf on the ground,was reason enough to get another picture.

A few orange or rust coloured leaves clinging to the twigs.

The gentle colours are pleasing to the eyes.

This coming week I am dong two presentations about my photography. I am nervous,but also excited to share this passion with others.

I have entitled my talks, Photography:The Art of Seeing Beauty Everywhere.

My post today is a good example of that.I decided to spend some time just walking on my yard and looking for beauty.All it takes is a little time and open eyes,to see beauty.

Let us all take time to really 'see' the beauty around us.
