Autumn

Today we start looking at fall colours. McPhail Memorial Baptist Church is in the Chinatown area, and this tree was turning red one day.


The Little Italy neighbourhood puts up autumn displays along Preston Street each fall.



This house in Little Italy had colours turning as I was here.


I stepped briefly into Commissioners Park to photograph this fall colour shot here at Dow's Lake. I would return here some days later for more of that, as we'll see to come.


Here we have a street view in the Glebe.


These two views in Centretown are around Dundonald Park, which is always a good spot for changing fall colours.


And for today I finish off with another day in Little Italy. I photographed this tree in a park, across from an Italian grocery I go to on a regular basis.

  32. That's strange that in "Little Italy" they show these Halloween decoration. Halloween and pumkins were completely unknown, has changed maybe. It's just like Christmas they never had a Christmas tree only crèches.
