Another kind of beautiful

It’s quite easy to go outside and get beautiful

pictures from the garden when everything

is blooming and the colors are vivid and rich.

 

I walked around and around with my camera, trying

to decide what to capture and share with you.

I swear, there is NOTHING blooming in the garden

right now! Nothing!

Trying to capture the beauty of the garden

in the fall is much more challenging.

I found myself searching for texture more than color.

This Japanese maple is one of the more beautiful

trees in the garden at the moment. It’s thread-like

leaves painted various colors of green, yellow,

and shades of red.

The weathered wood of the butterfly house…

The lumpy, bumpy hedge apples on the bird/squirrel

feeder….

Stacks of clay pots and rusty garden tools…

Fenway Park ivy climbing up the stone chimney…

Yes, fall is beautiful, just another kind of beautiful.
