Autumn Cherry Tree & Grey SkyI know you were all thinking to yourselves "I wonder what that cherry tree outside Marley's front window looks like now?" Well, here is the answer. I've posted several photos of this tree before (blossom, green, turning) and now here it is almost ready to drop its leaves. I'm not sure why but on grey days, like yesterday, all of the autumn leaves seem brighter. Anyone know why?

Beautiful. I always noticed the grey-sky thing and color. I think the sun is just so bright it sort of washes colors out. That is the VERY non-scientific answer I am giving!
ReplyDeleteOo, my grandmother used to have a cherry tree outside her window just like that one!! Brings back memories! Lovely photo :-)
ReplyDeleteMarley: Maybe it looks brighter beacuse it's the most colorful thing you see. It looks like Louise said it in a different way.
ReplyDeleteIt does look like a late autumn sky and good thing you captured those leaves before they drop.
ReplyDeleteI love love love autumn & seeing all the gorgeous colors - I'm always in such a state of amazement this time of year!!! And, probably because the bright colors pop more against a dull background?
ReplyDeleteNice to have a changing tree with changing seasons right outside. I can't get over how bright the changing leaves are in Ohio - it's downright dull in So Cal by comparison. Wish I could capture the glow of the yellow as it really looks.
ReplyDeletenatures way of brightening up your day?!
ReplyDeleteI think it is getting dressed for winter.
ReplyDeleteHee hee, I was thinking that exact same thing! How'd you know? :)
ReplyDeleteA beautiful tree! Happy skywatch and have a great weekend!!
The colours seem birghter, because they are against well nothing, no colour. I love the way you have caught these, just on the turn. You can sense the falling leaves at each camer click.
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely colours. I was away over the weekend and after only 3 days I have noticed how fast the leaves are dropping. Has your cherry tree any leaves left?
