Forgive me for these photos...they were taken with my phone camera. To be honest, no camera (maybe even my Canon 7D!), i think, can truly show just how breath-taking beautiful Tennessee is in the Fall. Fall has always been one of my most favorite times of year, and since moving to Tennessee a few years ago, Fall has taken my breath away.
My photos just don't do the beauty of Tennessee any justice, especially in the Fall. The colors are simply amazing. From the reds, oranges, greens, browns and amazing yellows of the leaves, i just can't seem to capture to majesty of the beauty. It may just be a season that one has to see in order to appreciate the beauty. I walk around most of Fall in wonder of the trees that are around, in their changing season. It seems as though every day brings a new shade of color to my little area of the world. God truly out-did himself when he created Tennessee in the Fall.
I am sure that more camera time outside would help me capture the beauty that surrounds me. My new camera is still a learning experience and i imagine it will be that way for some time. My trusty older Canon and i, however, have things down pat and do mangage to get some shots together. I just always wonder, though, if the person looking at my tree photos truly, truly can see and feel the beauty.

(1886-1918)
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
