The Colours are Coming

After such a dry summer, it will be interesting to see what the colours are like this year. Certainly, we have been getting a few chilly nights and, although there isn't much going on around our bay, they are starting to show up along the road.

And you don't have to go too far on the highway to see leaves a lot further along. I took this shot from the car on Saturday to capture those golds and oranges against that ominous sky.  I was in and out of rain all day, as you can see from the droplets on the windshield.

A trip to Newmarket yesterday was very colourful: beautiful sumac and all the gorgeous reds and orange maples well under way. If you are driving up here this weekend, you will see great colour. Hopefully it will wait for those who are coming for a northern Thanksgiving.
