What To Expect Soon - Impatient Me

Today was really cold. I am exaggerating, but compared to hot summer days, it was cold, below twenty Celsius. However, it is still very green here. We had a few rainy days and some sunny days, so we got things growing again, but not for too long. It usually rains at night, so I cannot do much sky exploration these days.

The photos shown here are from the past; it's Canadian Thanksgiving 2003 here where I live in Aurora, Ontario. I took these when I got my first Kodak digital camera and abandoned the SLR because of the cost. So I am expecting the same fall colours this year, and I cannot wait because I have a few new toys to play with, like my wide-angle Sigma lens that I don't use too often.

Well, then let's talk about the beautiful fall. During the autumn season, the leaves become a bright rainbow of glowing yellows, sparkling oranges, reds, and warm browns. The yellow, gold, and orange colours on the trees are expected every year. But how about red? Red colours are a product of warm, sunny fall days and cool nights. However, nights cannot be freezing. So if you follow weather patterns and see this pattern in your area—meaning if you have four seasons—you are in for some nice red shades.

I am expecting to see shots more colorful than the three your shown here. Very nice!
Gorgeous pics, Anna!!! I hope we have brilliant color this year so we can snap away. :D

It's cold in the mornings and harder to wake up because we heat with wood and brrrr.

Hugs, JJ

Beautiful shots Anna!nicely framed. I like fall for the colors, I was up at 4 this morning doing astronomy, just above 0 Celsius here, my deep sky camera doesn't like the cold, I'm running out of summer, lol

Thanks jj, like always. Yeah I have difficulty waking up too, the house is cold because have to do some maintenance on the furnance so we running low on heat. Its nice to stay in bed for a longer time in the mornings though, but then got to rush to work. It must be nice to have wood burning scent at home. Anna :)

Thanks Bob. Wow, 0 Celsius that is cold. Lol, running out of summer, me toooooo. Its been really nice this year, and we actually slowing down with our outdoor adventures, will have to get some good warm clotes for our hikes. I have the same issue, my camera not sure if it likes the cold too. I had issue with my portables. But then I had also issue in the heat, the lens would would not work because of shrinkage and expansion, and because of that it looses connection - and lost some good photo opportunities. Oh, well. Hopefully we will have an Indian summer, and thanksgiving is around the corner. Anna :)

PS some cool shots of Venus on your blog.

Hi Susanne, trust me the grass always look greener on the other side, just wait until we get very freezing weather, then we be dreaming of your palm trees 24/7 lol that are always enjoyable to view and dream of course. Anna :) Thanks for visiting.
Anna, do you have this much color already? We don't down here in New York state.

These are breathtaking shots. I never cease to be amazed at your wonderful "eye" for just the right shot. I have so much to learn!

Hi Cindy, thanks for visiting. Yeah the fall is very soothing after the summer heat. Same apply to rain, I like rain after hot day because it calms everything down. Anna :)
