Maple Leaf Parade 2012

Fall is probably my favorite season. I love how the sunlight falls differently than any other time of year. I love all the brilliant colors of the changing leaves and the crisp breeze! I have a good friend who hosts a get together at her house each year for the local Maple Leaf Parade and I have been fortunate enough to be able  to attend the last couple of years. What a beautiful day for the parade! Here are some of my favorite shots of the day. Enjoy!

Fall Colors

Fall colors weren't too bad this year considering the drought we experienced here in the midwest. I was thankful to have the opportunity to capture some really amazing colors recently before the leaves started falling off. These were taken in nearby Carthage, MO.

I also got to take a hike on the Wildcat Glades trail in Joplin, MO where the trees were gorgeous!

Finally got an opportunity to check out the leaves and capture some new waterfall pictures recently. It was a beautiful day!
