Colours

Today I begin a series on autumn colours around the area. It's been a slow season here. One tree I can always count on to start early is in Dundonald Park, where I took this shot in August.

Another August shot, outside a house nearby in Centretown. This one was just getting started.

Here it was in September.

Another tree in Centretown.

This one's in Little Italy, and by now has lost the bulk of its leaves. But on a couple of occasions passing through in September, it was going bright red.

In the second half of that month, I was on the Portage Bridge to take photos of the Ottawa River for my twice a month series. On the way, this caught my eye.

A short walk beyond, these caught my eye on Victoria Island, where the ruins of an old mill still stand.

Later in September, returning to Little Italy, I took this shot. A few days later, the leaves were off the tree.

And that same maple, a few days on from the prior shots.

I finish today in Westboro, where at the end of September I passed by this church, with its trees turning into autumn colours. This building houses two congregations- All Saints Anglican and First United Churches.
