shade greens

Don't know why, but I find myself staring at nature.  A lot.  And now inflicting endless nature photos upon my blog readers. 

 Perhaps the appeal is partially the calm and steadiness offered by trees and greenery.

 Gorgeous lofty oaks are ubiquitous in this city.

And this splash of bright spring green was startling in September~even though it's still comfortably in the 100s.  But I hear rumors that coffee shops are already beginning to push their pumpkin spice concoctions upon us.  Think I'll wait a few more degrees.
