Fall light




Someone told me recently that it really looked like fall to her. I asked her to take a picture to show me what she meant. How do you take a picture of fall? Sure yellow and orange leaves show that nature feels it too, but what about the light? The light feels so distinctly fall when it arrives, that it's as if the slant of the sun shines in at you from an angle that hits your senses in such a way that an electric current is triggered that tells you, "Buy sweaters! Eat pasta! Horde wood!".
So I've been looking at the light, and while I think we're close here, we're not there yet. The leaves are certainly pretty though.
