Millions of Colors
Millions of colors--nothing beats autumn in Central Park.
In my humble opinion, there is no better place to be in fall than Central Park. The colors and contrasts are simply sublime. This is partly due to the fact that these trees were not haphazardly planted, but planted with purpose.
Rows of elms provide a striking scene because of their sameness, but the variety of species not only diversify the look, but the colors, and that is what we have in this first photo, above. The medley of colors is deeply satisfying for me.
You may have guessed that fall is my favorite time of year.
