Yellow, White & Blue

I keep thinking all the trees are finished dropping their leaves in my part of the world, but because Colorado has so many micro-climates, I keep finding more color. These photographs were taken on Saturday near Denver (specifically in Greenwood Village), in Westlands Park; I was there to watch my wife play tennis. First up is a reflection off a lake,including a bench on which I'd have enjoyed sitting for a while as the day was beautiful.
And here is a view walking out of the tennis club.
I'm sure there are lots of Halloween and fall foliage photos over at My World Tuesday, so visit it today!

    Absolutely breathtaking colors! Both captures are simply stunning, Al! Of course, your photos are all gorgeous, but these are particularly so. Would love to have been there myself, sitting on that bench and enjoying the reflections! Have a wonderful week!

    The bench reflection in the water creates a very interesting photo amid all the autumn gold. Looks like a painting!

    Lovely photos! I like very much the golden reflection on the water. The mountain covered with snow framed by green-golden-brown coloured trees is also a very beautiful picture! Have a nice Tuesday! :)

    What a wonderful world you show us. That second shot is like stepping into another dimension for me. I have heard a lot about Denver and Colorado but have had no chance to experience it for myself.

    Thank you for the incredible beauty.
