How can you possibly dislike autumn? In the air, there are sweet and fragrant smells of pumpkin, cinnamon and the trees and foliage in Virginia are a complete feast for the eyes. Vibrant colors of gold, orange and red dancing with the cool breeze on hanging limbs. It's my favorite season, the most romantic and human of all. Autumn reminds me of the human spirit - constantly changing colors, shedding layers, and sometimes stripped completely bare, as the leaves and trees at the end of November, right before the winter season arrives.

I love the blogger

anton_petrus, who is one of the most amazing nature photographers on LiveJournal. Of course, his posts generate almost no comments. They never appear in the TOP, which is filled with nonsense and trash for the mindless. After all, what can you really say about beauty? However, sometimes it's necessary to respect it, to pay homage to the landscapes and peace that mother nature continually provides. I never grow bored of nature, it's there that you can truly reflect, be alone and silent, and understand and appreciate the depth of the world. One of my favorite movies is "American Beauty," and the disgruntled character Lester Burnham probably sums it up best:( Read more... )

Every day I drive to DC to work, but I can't say I've really explored the city much since childhood.

On this beautiful autumn day I decided to walk around, starting here at the Lincoln Memorial.

Autumn is the most magical season to me. In the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast it also offers the chance to view amazing foliage. In the DC area where I live the leaves are only starting to change. However, foliage currently is at its peak in New England states such as Maine and Vermont, considered the prime location in the U.S. to view the magnificent orange and red leaves of autumn. I tried to book a last minute trip to Vermont this weekend, but every bed and breakfast was full. So next year I'll plan ahead.
