Red Apples on Tree

This picture went through some editing steps, but
the colour of the apples has not been tampered with!

I include the original photo for comparison:

Autumn Market Collage

Collage made in Picasa 3.
The individual pictures in this collage were published recently at The Island of the Voices: Autumn Market Day (the first three) and at Soaring Through the World: Ties and Stuff (the last one). More market pictures coming up here tomorrow!

Shifting Colours

For this picture I have used Artistic Effect "Coloured Edges" in PSP9.
(I had intended to schedule this one for another day...
but forgot to change the date... Well, never mind!)

Mosaic Monday: The last flowers of the season

Collage made in Picasa 3
The pictures all taken on 24 September, 2009, in a small park I often pass through on my walks.

Change in the weather coming up!

It's all water under the bridge now...

This is a close-up of the same bridge as in yesterday's picture.

Old Stone Bridge and Rowan Tree

What a storm can do...

Hawthorn

I'm not quite sure, but I think this is some kind of  hawthorn - crataegus - hagtorn



The first picture is a lucky straight-from-the-camera shot.
The second one has been slightly cropped, clarified and sharpened in PSP9.

Countryside View 2

Countryside view with red barn and rose hips.

Countryside View

Sunday afternoon walk in the countryside, 20 September 2009.
We've had a mild September so far and the green colours still dominate the landscape.
But the withered flowers and grass by the roadside bear witness to the time of year.
Among others goldenrods - solidago virgaurea - gullris

The Last Taste of Summer

Painted Lady - Cynthia Cardui - Tistelfjäril
The days are getting shorter,  nights and early mornings colder, but we have still been blessed with sunny days and warm afternoons this mid-September week.

From Summer Greens to Autumn Reds

If I'm not mistaken, this is a Berberis bush (Berberis vulgaris).
I'm not really a garden expert, though - I only have a balcony!
