Peak Performance

We are pretty much near peak in Southern NH... so I thought I'd share a few parting shots:


"great pumpkins"


"we call it maize"


"take a bite"


"fall on the floor"


"none more yellow"


"fade into hue"


"view from my window at school~ Fall 2009"


"another view"


"show stopper"


"for the birds"


All photos by Rene~2009


Peace

    Just, wow. Absolutely beautiful... and so unlike anything here in the Arizona desert. Sometimes, I really miss the East. :)

    Beautiful. I'm a bit to the north of you, and up in the mountains - the leaves are almost gone up here now. We even had a little snow last week.

    Beautiful photos! I was able to visit SNH at this time of year a few years back & it was BEAUTIFUL! It even made me appreciate the Fall color out here in Oregon more...we have great color, but it's mixed with lot's of evergreens, so it isn't as awe inspiring!

    Stopping by late from VGNO to say hi! Enjoy your week!

    Thank everyone for your comments...just a few days left of the color before it's gone, I just can't seem to get my fill :(

    Lynn, you crack me up. I don't know what I'm dressing as. We can't do that at school :( In the past I've been Raggedy Ann, a snow-leopard princess and Supergirl but I don't usually dress up anymore...but maybe this year...hmmm
    Take pics of those Oz stilettos!

    justsomethoughts-heh! I borrowed that line from an old Mazola commercial..ahhh you are probably a young'un and you don't remember it :)

    Thanks again everyone!

    Peace~Rene

    Lovely, Mizz Rene - brings back memories...

    Shade and Sweetwater,
    K (who hasn't had much of a colorful fall here in Redneck Central - all the rain is a blessing for the lake but sends the trees from green to brown with no stops along the way)

    That maize is incredible in its variety. Love the photos. What a beautiful place to be this time of year. Hope you are ready for the snow and cold though. If anything, it will no doubt further draw out the muse in you.

i don't like eggs but you knew this already i know you're thinking such a terrible waste but it's not, you see i'm feeding them to the dog she loves them just as much as i know she loved you and the way you walked her as if every single thing she sniffed mattered to you as well sorry, dear pardon my red wine opera crowd violin string tugging (your words) i ramble at breakfast like a fussy percolator but you knew this already morning is when i am most honest and vulnerable i know that's why you left after dinner oh god dammit you i miss you so much what i did before us is a mystery and what i do now is insanity i'm frying up eggs just to smell them again and to perhaps coax you down, from wherever you are for breakfast did you know i believe that there is still a ghost of a chance Rene Foran ~  April 2011 photo by Tess Kincaid for Magpie Tales click for more info
