Fall Colors
Been bringing my camera to work this week. I just had to, every time I come around a corner I see something like this.
I'd have to say that the fall foliage is at it's peak. I wish I didn't have to work so I can have the time to do some photography. I hear that Saturday we are going to have some rain so that will be no good. Look like I'm not going to have as much time to capture the colors this year as I would like.
Speaking of work, it's pretty spooky at the office.
We go to town decorating the whole place along with haunted house and all. This is one of those "It's not mandatory that you decorate, but you will decorate" type of deals. I don't mind since we get to see some of the creativity that can be found in the unlikeliness places. The best thing is tomorrow from 3pm - 5 pm we will be hosting some of the local children's homes for trick or treating, crafts and games as well as a haunted house or two.
I will bring my camera to work again tomorrow and hope to get many more pictures.
Playing with textures
Photoshop is an amazing tool. I always wonder if I will ever learn it's full potential.
Crisp morning
Was a crisp and cool morning this morning. Soccer starts at 9:00 AM and when I left the house it was 32 degrees Fahrenheit.
One of the nice things about fall soccer I'm finding is the amazing colors. A few of these trees looked to be at peak color.
Ashley didn't find the cold to bad. She dressed for it and did not complain.
Today's match was at Coolidge park in Fitchburg. Ashley's team out play them, having the ball in possession most of the game but only ended in a 2-2 tie. For some reason Leominster didn't seem able to kick the ball towards the net. Lots of nice passes but not many finishing touches. Nether less Ashley had fun as usual.
Abandoned Farm
Went out for a Sunday ride today with the hopes of capturing some of the fall foliage. It is not quite peak time yet, probably another week. I did stumble across this abandoned farm though.
Don't know much about this farm. From the sign I did see it states that this apple orchard operated by the town of Hollis, NH. According to the sign they allow hiking on this property with the disclaimer to not pick the apples since this is a working orchard.
As you can see it appears that it has been quite some time since this farm has been in operation. Even the apples have been left to fend for themselves. Most of the ones I did see were all rotted out.
Overall it was a good day. I did find a little of the color that I was hoping to capture. I might even use one of these for the calendar that I'm putting together.
