Images of autumn...

...colors are richer, shadows are deeper, and the warm oranges and reds of the season ignite anticipation of the ancient celebration of harvest and plenty...

An orangish-red maple leaf shines brightly on the forest floor after a soft autumn shower (from Spring Valley Wildlife Area in Waynesville, Oh).

...red rosehips that border the marsh at Spring Valley Wildlife Area.

...raindorps bead up on an autumn leaf, which is just starting to turn yellow, along the Little Miami Trail at Spring Valley.

A bright read rose hip stands out against the marsh at Spring Valley Wildlife Area.

...small white asters at the peak of their blooming season, glow in the evening shadows along the wet edges of the Little Miami Trail.

Red, orange and yellow leaves stand out brightly against the deep colors and shadows of the forest floor.

...bright green pokeberry leaves and ultra purple stems offer interest in the autumn landscape. The strings of berries have already been pick clean, possibly by cedar waxwings, catbirds or robins.

...bright yellow kernels of corn peak from the dried husk of a stalk of feed corn. This corn was in the filed in front of the eagle's nest on the Little Miami river.

Great Blue Lobelia (Lobelia siphilitica) grows at the forest edges along the Little Miami river.

These photos are all from the walk Matty and I took along the Little Miami River at Spring Valley Wildlife Area (from the previous post).
