AUTUMN GLORY

"Autumn Glory" was just fudged (a little bit) out of an old version of, yes, an even older pic. I love this color. I have fond memories of the trees in upper New York State (I'm from New York City and have only been living in CA 10 years) in full fall glory. When I was a kid my father would pack us (mother and two kids) into the car and take us on the most fabulous long fall drive to view the leaves. I have many other memories of looking out the train window (the tracks run alongside the Hudson River a great deal of the way north) as an adult traveling on my own, and ooohing and aaahing at the autumn trees. Yes, there are also reds and yellows and nearly deep maroon colors on fall trees. But the deep orange in this photo is the one that plucks at my heartstrings ... at some specific memory I've never quite recalled, only deeply feel.
