More Loteria series, La Mano bedecked with marigolds and colorful skulls for an upcoming dia de los muertos show....I'll be sharing...
Don't forget to join me and Susanna very soon for dia de bloglandia
The Maples seem to have weathered our early cold...the red glow from this beauty welcomes me every morning....life is good...
Look at that RED! That would be a happy sight to see every morning. I want to breathe in that colour. And congratulations on your latest show, Stephanie. Yes, please take photos!

Gorgeous and gorgeous! Autumn is such a glorious consolation after the waning of summer.
By the way, Steph, I just read in this month's Audubon magazine that your ash tree will be able to reclaim the lost nutrients from those fallen green leaves if you let them decompose through the winter at its base.

I love that tree and it's beautiful color. You take such great photos. Have a great weekend Stephanie. By the way, I'm wondering where you will be posting the names participating for "El Dia." Here or somewhere else?

Beautiful! Both your art and nature's. It doesn't usually get cold enough here for our maple tree to turn red, so I love getting to see yours.
I linked to Dia de Bloglandia in my Haunted party post a couple of days ago - wish I could for sure take part, but I look forward to seeing it unfold! xo

you know what? many try to replicate that tree's orange, but nature trumps all. look at that! And that's a photo! I bet it's beyond belief in person.

Stephanie, I am so glad you have your Autumn color burst... I love your maple, mine turn yellow, not that gorgeous red-orange... today yellow leaves are everywhere... floating and blowing... your shrine is wonderful... and the photo below of your window and the reflection is stunning. Have a wonderful day today... Roxanne

I love your newest shrine. I posted a reminder about Dia de Bloglandia today on Amusing Muses and spent the day with my sister making shrines in the Muse Studio. Good times!

I've been missing Mexico but coming to your blog is visually almost as good. Your colors, art work and talent thrill me.
