Autumn

There's been a hard frost here in Iowa, but otherwise the weather has been seasonal, with cooling temperatures. Besides that the light changes, slanting lower across the sky and lighting up changing foliage. Autumn is the time for one last burst of vibrant life before the skies come down and the landscape goes grey.

"Fall Finale" is a view of one of my favorite painting places, Gray's Lake. The lineup of trees along the north point go bright orange when the weather changes.
