Fall is Falling...

...leaf by leaf






Yes, I WILL lay down in a cemetery for a cool photo!  I've learned the possibilities for embarrassing my kids are apparently ENDLESS!  Yippeeeeeee!  Altho, I think I might have given a couple of passers by a heart attack when they saw my motionless body prone amongst the tombstones.




"Last Man Standing"
Whitemarsh, PA




"Autumn's Blanket"
Whitemarsh, PA








I've got a VERY cool house.  Only the RED leaves fall on my white porch.  Interesting phenomenon!



  

Even the acorns that have fallen to the ground now lay emptied.  And a good thing. Just like us Northeasterner's are prone to flood the supermarkets to load our overflowing shopping carts full of bread, milk and Tastykakes when the word "snow" is even mentioned...so too must the squirrels do their squirrely equivalent.  They are calling for SNOW this weekend! Seriously?!?!?  I wonder if the squirrels have their Christmas decor up already like they do in TARGET!  Snow, hmmmmm....Butterscotch Krimpets or Peanut Butter Tandytakes? BOTH!

Enjoy the beauty!

    I am cracking up here! Just saw you comment on my blog. This is not the first time we've shared similar tales around the same time I believe. Kind of spooky, eh? Sorta like seeing a body lying on the ground. LOL

    Gorgeous leaves and acorns! I love the 3rd and 4th best.
    Love your commentary, cracks me up every time!
    I have gotten many a strange look for lying down to take a photo, although never in a cemetery.

    Great shots...but I must say I have never layed my body down in a cemetery. That will come soon enough for me on a more permanent basis. Love the reds on the whites. Have a great day....and yikes snow??

    Please tell me that you did one of those texture things on the porch photos. If not I guess that I really have to do some new staining of the porch.

    Laughing at your commentary - always a good read. Really like your third shot with the blanket of leaves, and your captures of the red leaves on your white porch are fantastic, love the crop of the second of those.

    Great images, am in love with the red leaf! I'm not averse to lying on the grass anywhere to get a photo either. Tip: Always carry a large bin bag with you to put on the ground to stop your knees/any other part of your anatomy getting wet/disgustingly dirty :O)

    hadn't thought of fall pictures in a cemetery, but I'm game? I'm a new follower; my good friend Linda recommended you. :) I like what I see!

    Yeah, see...now, I've gotta find me a cemetary to lie down and shoot in ;) That's such an awesome capture! WOW!

    I love your space...and thought I'd show some appreciation for it by giving a little award:
