A Little Touch of Red as Autumn Eases In

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with North Sky Realty LLC 6502410580

All around Southwest Michigan where I live the trees are slowly beginning to turn color, and the other day I was looking out my back window at my greenhouse and took this photo of the beginnings of red on the tree out there.  The color red is just the beginning, and in the coming weeks, autumn will be in spectacular display again with gold, orange and red and all shades in between.  This is a great time of year to take photos if you love outdoor colors.

Great photo! Although the cold is not fun, Fall does bring a lot of beauty such as the leaves changing color. Hope you have a great Fall!

Michael- Great shot, thanks for sharing!  I enjoyed meeting you at the RPAC breakfast last week, too.  Enjoy the Fall- it's definitely one of the great things about living in Michigan!

Good Morning Michael from a fellow transplanted Michigander, thanks for your photo. It reminds me of growing up in Warren, Mich.  Here near the Smokies, our trees are behaving like yours.  A peek of yellow and a bit of red.  Love this time of year.  Have a great fall day.

It is so neat how the color slowly bleeds in. I bet a close-up of a leaf would like sweet.

Hi Michael, When I was back East,  it is interesting to try and photograph trees that are red. Only  red. When you do find them, ( they are not as frequent as you might think), they will really stand out in your Fall color photos.

Michael, it is just the beginning of the red here and it will come on fast now. We go from Summer to Winter in usually 2 weeks to a month. This years it apears to be 2 days. We had a fire last night and were all bundled up. I love the Fall colors and drives for photo shoots. Nice that you can look out your window and get a shot. We have two Sequoia Redwood trees in our front yard but all they do is get messy. I love them though and we are working on good names that honor them. Have a beautiful day!
