One Last Look at the Fall Colours

G'day. I was having a pint with the lads in Dougie's garage last Saturday when I said to myself "Wait a minute - your going to be 56 tomorrow, so what the hell are you doing sitting around on this cold cement slab when the whole countryside is ablaze in fall colours out there to remind us of the glory, generosity and grand design of the Creator, if he exists?"

So I guzzled what was left of my Blue Light and off I went, to take these pictures to show you what's going on in the neighbourhood as the chlorophyll disappears from the leaves, photosynthesis stops, and the residual glucose in the maple leaves turns red.
