Burst of Color

Its fall and the trees are showing their color.  In Essex, CT the tree lined street leading to the river is alive in red, yellow  and orange and Halloween figures adorn the posts.




Under a canopy of yellow leaves the river can be seen in the distance.



Down on the dock the gulls were looking for handouts.  This guy was waiting patiently for his turn.


                However, at the last moment another gull swooped in to catch some bread in mid-air.
                                      


The calm of the Connecticut River


The yellows and oranges against the blue sky.

Relaxing and enjoying the colors of fall
Summer picnics are only a memory now.
