The trees here in the Okanagan are glowing in the best kind of way with the most intense, fiery reds and oranges.
We’ve had quite a bit of rain and mist over the last couple of days, so these gorgeous trees very impressively puncture the overcast with their colourful abandon.
Happy Thursday.

Thanks, Steve. They actually weren’t hard to find as there are lots of these red maples in a nearby park. They won’t last long now but their colours are so impressive.

Oh wow. Those are impressive colours and colours I love to see.
After mist or rain, I do feel that helps intensify the colour more too.

Right? The colours at the moment are very intense in the red and sugar maples. Agreed – the rain does seem to boost the colour but the contrast with the overcast was very sharp, too. Cheers.

Great that they are hanging in there despite the rain. Seems the rain is not making it over the mountains in our area. Happy Thursday Lynette. Allan

Our rain is finished now and we’re supposed to have sun for the next several days. It has really cooled off though. We’re looking at highs between 6-8C. And only last Friday it was gorgeous with lots of restaurant and pub patios still very occupied. Yesterday we decided to put our deck to bed for the winter as we don’t think we’ll use it again until March or so. I’m glad we got a decent soaking as we sorely needed it.

Wow! That is stunning. Not much autumn colour in the UK so far and it’s shaping up to be a very wet season.

The colours of the sugar and red maples has been gorgeous. Their leaves are falling rapidly now though so these maples in particular will soon be bare. We still have lots of green leaves on the aspens and cottonwoods, so some colours still coming. Cheers.

Fabulous shots. I love how vibrant these sugar maples are. Our colours have been a bit muted this year.

Thank you very much, Linda.
Some of our colours have been, too. We got just enough rain to get by but many of the trees showed signs of heat stress. On some of them the leaves just curled up and fell off. The summer was a difficult one for plants, trees and animals.
