The day before the full Beaver #Moon in #yyc casts a bright light and shadows on my deck and boardwalk in the middle of the night. Also known as the Frost moon.

A night photo of my backyard with the moonlight creating shadows on the deck and boardwalk.

Wonderful to spend hours doing a fall cleanup.

A collage of four photos of yellow and bronze fall leaves. From top left, raspberry, top right spurge, bottom right ninebark and bottom left rose.

In places in #yyc, it's becoming the season of the sticks.

An asphalt bike path with tree trunk shadows striping the path.

Out for a #walk just west of Sherwood Park #yeg with my older bro.

A pathway cut into tall golden grasses and scrub poplars without leaves.

Frost in #yeg but a pleasant sunshine Alberta day.

Asphalt shingles on a roof white with frost but slowly melting in the early morning.

A home, on my walk, was wonderfully landscaped. Just love the yellow leaves. #yyc #gardens

That's about as brilliant of a yellow as our larch in the backyard gets.
#yyc #gardens #fall.

The red is dangling Virginia Creeper, outside our second floor window, which I just realized is in the grape family.

On a #bike ride this past Saturday, the sights in Calgary were spectacular due to the #Fall atmosphere. #yyc

Equal parts sky and water in a gray overcast sky mirrored in the water, only bisected with muted gray & yellow fall colours.

Love this lil garden at #heritagepark #yyc

Jammed packed garden in October still very colorful with pinks, yellows,silver and white in front of an old style building with reddish brown stain and in the background the end of a passenger train car sits idle.

It's Fall. Admit it.

Doing some Fall things like making applesauce. #yyc #Fall

A pot is filled with apple slices, dusted with cinnamon and too much sugar.

Another distracted bike photo #yyc #bikepaths

Curving asphalt bike path with trees bordering in the fall process of yellowing.

Nice to see the asters blossoming in the #fall. #yyc #gardens

Purple asters above white and gold feverfew on the bottom.

Starting to feel like Fall but not too much. #yyc #fallcolors

Highbush cranberry leaves a fall purple set against silvery wolf willow leaves.

Finally, fresh air in Calgary!

Fire smoke had lingered for a month, just not fresh until the last four days.

After a pretty good summer. Spoilt.

Guess it's green onion harvest time. #yyc #gardening. Haven't grown them in the past. This pot yielded radishes before being replanted in late spring.

A washtub is filled with dirt and green onions are spiking up from it. The washtub sits on a patio of pavers with a couple dog statues looking on.

I like when the trees reach out to touch the trees on the opposite side of the street. #trees #yyc

A city neighborhood street with trees arching over the cars driving underneath.

Out for a walk in #yeg

A pathway along a red fence, with overarching branches and fall leaves starting to fill the ground.

My mom-in-law's #rose. The scent is wonderful.

I hope your nose lifts your spirits, today.

My compliments to #calgary #city for the wonderful flowers in our #parks. Glenmore Reservoir

An idyllic photo of the Glenmore Reservoir in the background, with two red Adirondack chairs and a lovely huge flower pot in the foreground. #yyc #gardens

This looks like fun. #yyc #kayaking

Chatted with our community gardener today. #yyc #community #garden. She was dealing with slugs and planting new grasses that she bought on autumn sale.

Four large pots in a parking lot island with the same flower arrangements of canna lilies. Mostly juniper between them.

A little clearer in #yyc today for a bike ride.

View of Calgary's downtown skyline from Mission area. The sky is only slightly gray from the wildfire smoke. The foreground is mostly green, turning slightly yellow, of mostly scrubby poplar trees, I am guessing.

A picture of the Bow River from both sides showing the Harvie Passage Lookout, which is a beautiful design, almost a sculpture.

Sculpture of metal and a platform of rundle rock, with the Bow River rapids in the distance.

At Silversprings botanical garden #bgss #yyc #gardens. Lovely job by all the volunteers. Even in September, in fine shape.

Multi petals flowerheads in an orange-red color.

Loads of flowerheads in a radiating yellow and orange circles.

Any sedum flowerheads of muted yellow and rust colors. A bee is in there somewhere.
