View of multi-coloured multi-varietied autumn trees in a forest from the upper parking lot at Killarney Lake in Fredericton, New Brunswick in Canada. There are power lines running across the image in front of the trees. The gray of the sky, pavement and electrical transformers set off the colours of the trees and the leaves on the ground.

Stunning forest photo. Is that you in the red dress there? Your photo really puts the immenseness of the forest in perspective

Autumn golds on the north bank of the North Nechako River.

Birches & Poplars on the edge of a riverfront property. Leaves are gold, yellow, and light orange. A grassy path sloping downwards, has a scattering of fallen yellow leaves.
