LENE Fall Phenology Photo Contest!
Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting, and autumn a mosaic of them all. -- Stanley Horowitz
As long as autumn lasts, I shall not have hands, canvas and colors enough to paint the beautiful things I see. -- Vincent Van Gogh
The sun heads south and hangs low in the sky. The air turns crisp.
Leaves blush and flutter to the ground in an embarrassment of riches.
Critters of all shapes and sizes bask in the cool sunshine and prepare for the coming winter.
Celebrate the season by capturing the things you love about fall!
