Seasonal Colors

Grassy Waters Preserve, North Palm Beach

This is about as close as we come to any Autumn colors here in south Florida
These are cypress trees ..... they lose their foliage every fall.
But the leaves just die, turn brown and fall off. No brilliant reds or golds.
They will, however, be a dazzling spectacular green come March and April.

Canon EOS 5D
1/200s f/6.3 at 100.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Very similar to Texas, but I like the rusty brown of the Cypress. Ours appear RED in the sunlight and give us a small taste of autumn color.

If I wouldn´t know, I would guess it´s autumn. Looks like a fine place.

wonderful autumn colours!

These are a lot paler than in the colder areas, like in NZ. For us it is the colder areas down south put on more brilliant displays

Beautiful fall colors. I was not expecting to see this from Florida.

I'll take one bright yellow, two orange, and one brilliant red please!!!
I guess Vermont and New Hampshire are spoiled with the beautiful foliage!

Reminds me of Low Country (South Carolina).
