PhotoHunt: Yellow

A day early because I am off to Connecticut for the weekend.

Here's my entry. I know, you are thinking I've totally lost my mind. After all, today is the first day of spring, and here I am with a photo of New England's fall foliage. But, when I think of yellow, the foliage is the first thought that comes to this Bostonian mind. Have a good one! And, GO BC EAGLES!!

I am shedding my dreams like cricket songs –

one by one,

with the sibilance of leaves

and the sense of falling,

whispering all my selves

until

I stand before explaining,

bare-boned as these hills. ~ Jane Hirschfield, Love Poem – Autumn

Boston, my home town

Beantown, the City of Champions, the home of the Cod .. whatever you call it, it's where I hang my hat ... these days .. Boston. Born and spent most of my life here with some brief hiatuses to my second home, Hawaii.

In the cool evenings of September in Boston, when the warmth of the day is becoming a memory, the feel of autumn begins to tug at your memory. On the East Coast we are fortunate that Nature repeatedly gives us a kaleidoscope of rich colors to view this Earth.

So, as not to forget that summer may be an Indian Summer, and not to rush the new colors of fall, here are some of my favorite photos of New England. Aloha!
