Autumn

I begin today with that home in Centretown I showed you in a couple of shots from yesterday. This one was a few days on.


St. Patrick Basilica is downtown, and its trees were changing colour when I took this shot.


More leaves changing- this at a funeral home in Centretown.


These shots are from Dundonald Park in Centretown.


I took this shot from Plaza Bridge, looking at fall colours around the Rideau Canal, with the Ottawa Convention Centre on the far shore, and the National Arts Centre on this side.


In Major's Hill Park, trees were turning. This statue of Colonel By stands proudly here. The next time I passed through the park, the flowers and plants in the surrounding flowerbeds were gone, in preparation for the planting of tulip bulbs.


The Byward Market tends to put on seasonal decorations, as seen here.

  17. These images of the autumn had me reminiscing, how I miss that wonderful northern hemisphere autumn, the smells and crispness is not what we get here down under.
