October Blushes

Copyright 2009 TatyanaS

To blush is to display redness in one's face; the term is usually used when the redness is a result of an emotional response, which could reflect embarrassment, shame, or modesty. (Wikipedia)


Is autumn embarrassed, ashamed or just modest?

It is not easy to get naked...

  2. The color of the torn tree trunk has me puzzled...so red.
    Your dangling leaf pic looks like a work of art. Nice job.

  8. I guess after being flamboyant, they deserve to be a little shy.
    Great and humorous way of looking at fall. Love your pics.

  14. Танюша, спасибо! СЫнок уже поправился! Кашель немного еще есть.
    Вот это шиповник!!! СОбираешь? У нас то не такой сочный и цветом не такой насышенный, продолговатый. Я собираю иногда и на зиму завариваю и пьем просто как воду)
    У нас сейчас тоже везде такая кора в лесу, только не красная а такая медовая!Здорово в лесу сейчас и запах просто дурманящий! Спасибо за фото!

  17. Awesome tree trunk! I miss trees like that. Here we have mainly evergreens and they're not very dramatic.

  20. Hi [again] Tatyana~~ Just thought I'd drop over to answer the question you posed about the Acanthus
    on my blog. Would you believe my Acanthus has never bloomed? This is, I'm guessing, partly due to its location in a mostly shady place. And secondly this is the best it's ever looked thanks to my giving it more space. Who knows maybe next year it will bloom, I hope. Do you have this plant?

  22. I think autumn has been running a bit too fast so she got red in the face? Or maybe a bit of embarrassment too:)

    ReplyDelete
  23. I think that tree trunk is just sunburned after losing it's bark..hence the red..haha! Beautiful pics, Tatyana ;)
