a tribute to fall...

Since fall is my all-time favorite season (and we're less than 2 weeks from Thanksgiving!), I thought I'd share a few photos I took last Thanksgiving (2007) at my parents' home in Lexington, NC.

These photos were not edited in any way -- I find that God's creation usually doesn't need to be...

My poor parents...they have a tree in their backyard that is g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s in the fall until it drops its leaves. And guess who gets to rake them all up??

I was actually really trying for a new skill with my camera here. I was trying to focus on one particular leaf while blurring everything else in the background. Got it! I was so excited, considering the wind that day... :)

The photo on the left was taken in my parents backyard; the photo on the right was taken on our yearly "day-after-Thanksgiving" trip to Seagrove, NC.
