fall is beautiful


No question. Fall is my favorite season, especially if it's not too cold. :) Just for the colors... a certain warmth. Like the world cuddling under the covers, ready to sleep.

Dublin in the Fall reminds so much of New York it's scary. Makes me miss it a bit. Strolls across Central Park, drives up the Hudson Parkway, or walking down Fifth or Third, the city seemingly extending forever (especially when looking South). Sometimes I think of Dublin as a 1/10th model of New York for some reason (or is New York a 10:1 copy of Dublin rather?). Phoenix Park is way bigger than Central Park though, and it's impossible to beat the combination of trees surrounded by skyscrapers, but the woods and ponds and trails make up for it with natural beauty. It's like two sides of the same coin.

Here are some of the pictures I took last weekend (click to see a larger version). Is that sky unreal or what?

Beautiful -- makes me homesick.

How did you do the second pic? Is it photoshopped, or an exposure trick?

Justin, no photoshop at all. :) The second picture is of leaves sitting at the bottom of a pond, the images superimposed are of trees reflected on the water.
