Once a week—or every so often—I will display one of my photos captured and/or processed with Instagram over the last week. It’s a way for me to show photography that usually is quite different from my regular work. The pictures are displayed without any comments, hoping they will stand on their own. But I still very much appreciate any comments you may have.
In Flow with Otto 
Beautiful colours Otto. I’m guessing they are Seattle autumn leaves.
They are indeed. Thank you for the comment, Mary.
beautiful!
Thanks. 🙂
Oh a touch of Fall…beautiful!
Yes, autumn can really be beautiful.
Reblogged this on chusaengsri.
Thank you.
We are in the same season as leaves do their fabulous color performance.
Autumn is the season!
That’s not a color I generally associate with autumn, but it’s glorious. In some ways, that clutch of leaves is equal to any red and orange hillside, or yellow valley. It’s the sort of detail that makes the season so delightful.
I was surprised by the purplelish colour, too.
What a beautiful photo that summarizes autumn in a single leaf.
I am glad you like it. Thank you.
Beautiful, Otto, the epitome of fall.
Yes, isn’t it. Thank you, Holly.
Beautiful Otto!
Thanks a lot.
As we look at a forest, bathed in reds and golds, isn’t is astounding to consider than no two of those leaves are identical? Your photo made me think of that. Lovely shot, Otto.
I like that thought, and I believe you could very much be right. Like fingerprints of the autumn.
Gorgeous! Makes me want to go back home to the East Coast for a bit….to see the foliage.. beautiful!
Or maybe west coast? As this was capture in Washington State. But, yes, the east coast of United States it supposedly the place to go for autumn colours.
Aaaaaa… I do not know Washington State as well as I know my California and foliage just doesn’t happen in Los Angeles! Ha! But I’m originally from Boston and went to school in Vermont…and the foliage in the fall…. well, I don’t miss much from my hometown — but foliage in any part of New England is breathtaking! It is something you must see in person… it’s magnificent! Looks like I might have to take another trip to Washington State some times soon. Hmmm. I had no idea. 🙂
So pretty. It’s definitely fall around here in Michigan too…not peak here yet, but not too far away. I’ve been participating in a daily challenge where I go for a walk each day and post one pretty (or interesting) photo on FB for 365 days. That’s been really fun, even when the photo doesn’t end up being amazing, it’s still a chronicle of sorts of my year. This photo reminds me of that challenge.
Long time ago I did a 365 project, too. It was a demanding but fun experience, As to the peak of the autumn, here in Washington State you can easily choose. Up in the mountains it’s over the peak, but down here in Seattle where I am, it’s still only starting,
Someday I’ll have to get out to that state!
Beautiful, Otto! I shall miss most of autumn this year ☺
Hopefully you will enjoy some other experiences. 🙂
Lots! 🙂 🙂
Nice autumn colours and composition.
Thank you, Jane.
A lovely reflection of Autumn and the changing of the seasons.
Very pleasing composition and DOF.
It’s not easy to photograph a few leaves and make them look interesting (as I well know). I always think the most simple compositions are a true reflection of a good photographer.
Thank you for the lovely feedback, Vicki.
Vibrant! A lovely shot!
Thank you.
Fall’s here for sure
It sure is. 🙂
Inspiring words ❤ bless you
🙂
wow, that’s some amazing colour that nature’s got there!! beautiful shot, Otto
Nature is amazing!
Wow… with or without a comment, this image is a stunner 🙂
We are not so lucky to share such incredible colors, being from the tropics…
Thank you so much for sharing, Otto 🙂
And thank you for the feedback, Sreejith.
Otto. Your posts always inspire me to want to get out my camera and shoot. These days I’ve done not much of the sort, I have some kind of photo block. I appreciate you visiting my site, I have to get going again….thanks for the inspiration.
Not always easy to break the block. I find it useful to just get out and shoot something even if I know it’s not going to be much of anything. But then suddenly things may change. I wish you all the best.
Beautiful, Otto! That could have come from my neighbourhood. This fall has been a glory of bright colours. Ones I haven’t seen in a few years. It has made my drive into work delightful.
It has been a gorgeous autumn where I have been too. 🙂
