Autumn Colour

 Autumn leaves

The leaves are turning vibrant colours! No wonder so many people say this is their favourite time of year.

 Opeongo River,  Algonquin Provincial Park

The grasses look golden in the sunshine, especially when contrasted with blue skies.

 Grasses and lily pads

Even lily pads turn beautiful autumnal shades!

Paddling out to get a closer view

OH!! I have never seen lily pads in the fall! I had just assumed they died and dried up. But these are like big circles of pure gold floating in a blue sky. Even the water is gorgeous. And the leaves are super pretty. This long grass does indeed look like actual liquid gold. You live in a gorgeous place!

Your area is definitely enjoying a beautiful, colorful autumn! Not much has turned here, but we've had two days of rain. Hoping some leaves will be left to change color!
