a few foliage pictures






I went out today before the Alabama vs. LSU game (ROLL TIDE!, btw) and snapped some pictures around Oxford of the foliage. It was breezy and cool, great Fall weather if you ask me. I wanted to get these pictures because I fully expect most (if not all) of the foliage to bee off the trees in the next few days (certainly by the next time I get a decent chance to snap some pictures of the foliage.

The first three are taken on the grounds of College Hill Presbyterian Church (PCA) just north of town in rural Lafayette County. Numbers 1 and 3 are attempts at artsy shots. I think they worked fairly well. Numbers 2 and 3 are of/around a ginkgo(?) tree. Number four is of a brilliantly yellow tree near The Grove on the Ole Miss campus. The third is of a squirrel eating the berries (buds?) off a crepe myrtle tree also near The Grove at Ole Miss. I have others (20ish?), but I think these are my favorites out of the lot.

Pictures #1,2,3,5 are very good. The one of the concrete benches as fine perspective.

The only thing I don't like about #2 is you can see my car in the picture. (I couldn't tell when taking the picture because of the light angle was making it very hard to see the LCD screen on my camera). It is small enough, however, that someone skilled in Photoshop could, well, "Photoshop" it out.
