The predawn morning sky has soft pink hues filling backdrop of the distant mountains as a light breeze rustles the nearby grasses.

Photo of leaves on the ground. Two maple leaves are the focus of this picture, and the leaves are a glorious orange color. Other brown leaves are also seen.

Blue hour at a Scottish loch. Low level fog, blue hour and the silhouette of Scots pines, Nordic pines and birch trees.

"Serendipity". A last minute change of plan and an unexpected photo, but you have to be out and about to spot these things. One I think for my portfolio.

Trees and bushes displaying bright red, orange and yellow flowers, mixed in with dark green foliage. There is a patch of cloudy sky between trees. Laguna Lake, San Luis Obispo, California.

Autumnal trees in the foreground with a line of low cloud above them. Just a dusting of snow on the peaks.

Beneath the limbs of a wide spanning maple tree with a skinny, moss covered grey trunk. It is a frenzy of red overhead, branches reaching askew in many directions. The background is barren shrubbery and moss covered bedrock. A snippet of sky peeks through in soft grey/blue

Side view of a large leaf maple in greens & golds. The ground is littered with leaves in rust tones. Abandoned picnic tables dot the field that is bordered by shrubbery and additional tall trees. The ocean is visible in the far distance although not a highlight of this frame.
