"Autumn Burned Brightly...

...a running flame through the mountains,
a torch flung to the trees." - Faith Baldwin




"Autumn Batik"

"I can not endure to waste anything as precious as autumn sunshine by staying in the house.  So I spent almost all the daylight hours in the open air."
 -- Nathaniel Hawthorne

An ALMOST perfect quote, except I would add.....with camera!
